Details
MESSAGE are similar in sound to NEKTAR though slightly heavier, darker, jazzier and rawer. Originally a German-British band, their music oscillates between a proto heavy rock and psychedelic rock. "From Books And Dreams" was recorded under the direction of the famous musical engineer Dieter Dierks, who recorded many "Krautrock" Bands between '69 and '75 (Nektar, Amon Düül, Tangerine Dream, Guru Guru etc.). The result is very melodic, with a ravishing and an accomplished lyrical sense of composition. Message are delivering impressive, extended, mainly instrumental heavy/ space rock tracks which can be compared (in some parts) to NEKTAR's first effort. Gatefold, 180 g, neon yellow vinyl including a download code. (Limited pressing of 500)
