from Electric Sandwich (1972)


"China" is almost all most krautrock aficionados have come to expect from a guitar freak-out out of 1970's Germany - unencumbered by technique or convention, and rhythmically driven to the point where repetition becomes addiction. Too bad the rest of this album is more or less like all the generic hard-psych-blues-rock-whathaveyou from 1970's Germany you so often have to dig through trying to get to some other China.
Oh well, at least this time we tunneled in the right direction. Try doing that with a Birth Control record, and you're more likely to end up as Morlock fodder.
