 |
Description: | Official reissue of the Austrian prog-psych masterpiece. An indescribable
trip influenced by Pink Floyd, Soft Machine and Procol Harum, but greater
than the sum of its parts. All vocals in English.
"6 Stars" - Hans Pokora
Paternoster, that UFO of a rock album released unceremoniously on a custom-pressed CBS
Austria long player in 1972, is the stuff of legend. Itā??s been known to the rock collecting elite
since the 1980s, when it was first rediscovered, and it quickly became one of those rock records,
the records you hear about only if you know someone who knows someone with a copy,
much like Damonā??s Song of a Gypsy.
Paternoster is a terrifying album, a collection of songs that traverses the sublime, and thus
necessitates a bowel-loosening acceptance of beauty too complicated to merely admire, bowing
under the weight of a tremendous atmosphere, accentuated by Gothic organs and scorching
fuzz guitar, punctuated by wailing vocals detailing visceral, Bosch-like images, and carried by
enveloping bass and syncopated, mixed-well-too-loud-and-thankfully-so drums. - OFFICIAL REISSUE OF THE AUSTRIAN PROG-PSYCH MASTERPIECE |
