A completely instrumental (apart from a couple of samples) concept album with a poem before every song and a story that connects it all. The music is noisy with hardcore and emo influences. Don’t be afraid; it never gets arty farty or pseudo intellectual. The music is compelling and emotional, dreamy and powerful and could easily be the score for an abstract movie.

A daring piece of music by these Germans, very dynamic and reminds of both space rockers 35007 (Loose) and the experimental hardcore of the nineties. Quiet intros, explosive riffs and spacey parts all add to the excitement. An album to play loud, lie yourself down and dream away. Possibly in combination with some of that funny green stuff…
