Faust - Faust is Last (2010)



A very strong album from the Kraut-rock vetrans.

I hate reading reviews that just say "This is really
hard to describe" but this is really hard to describe!

This is not a nostalgia trip - it is very firmly set
in the "now", smashing through genres often in
a single song.

Sun-Ra meets grungy rock and takes a trip into
noise passages before ambient drones float through
the speakers ......guitars, noises, keyboards ....... each
track leads somewhere else.

No point in reading this, if you want to try something
different or just to dip your toe into kraut-rock - listen.
