Father Son And Holy Ghosts

Released

This German outfit landed at the border of krautrock and jazz rock, which means that their long jams (like “Forgotten Sea”) end up emphasizing groove and playing rather than noise and catharsis. Neither variety is better than the other, but if you want a slightly calmer kraut, and you really like glowy, friendly vibraphones, this is your spot.
