Description
2022, 2×12″ LP, Claremont 56. Limited to 400 hand numbered copies.
Since its release almost a decade ago, Furstattl’s debut EP for Claremont 56, the revivalist krautrock brilliance of ‘Rheinlust’, has become an in-demand item. It’s for this reason that the label has decided to reissue it, alongside a wealth of other tracks from the Mountaineer offshoot and create this compilation style album. Record one pairs the kraut-goes-space-rock ‘Rheinlust’ with its’ original B-side, the even more cosmic and epic, Can-go-Balearic style brilliance of ‘Links Der Pegnitz’. Record two contains two hard-to-find cuts from C56 compilations, the pleasingly upbeat and breezy ‘Leerlauf’ and the heavier, fuzzier ‘Haru’, with previously unheard cosmic rock/kraut-disco number ‘Fur Paul’ (a track named in tribute to Claremont 56 founder Paul ‘Mudd’ Murphy). – Juno
