VINYL FORMAT. Yeti is the second album by Amon Duul II and is quite a musical achievement. This is a double LP set and contains some of Amon Duul's most impressive work - delivering their thick, full-fledged, multi-layered sound with dense instrumentation and a certain epic vastness. This is Krautrock in the full depth of its power: huge, towering, dark and completely devoid of any happy optimism, but still bound full of energy. Instrumentally this album is pure magic with some great psychy sitar-ish   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Phallus Dei is the incredible debut by these Krautrock pioneers. This album was the result of the Amon Duul commune breaking up. The first half was more in the politics and community, but they did record a series of albums all under one jam. The other half of the Amon Duul was of course far more musically inclined, and of course that was Amon Duul II. It's also pretty safe to say that Phallus Dei is to Amon Duul II what Monster Movie is to CAN: both being their most '60s s   [ read more ]

Even with only five tracks, Airs on a Shoestring is one of the best avenues to investigate Amon Duul's sometimes irritable, sometimes unlistenable brand of fragmented rock and jazz fusion. Before the band split into two, with many of the members becoming the more fruitful and rhythmically inclined Amon Duul II, the four albums that Amon Duul made were instrumentally austere to say the least, but still bred some interesting and appealingly splintered progressive music. Two of the tracks, {&   [ read more ]

The second album by Amon Dnnl II (not to be confused with the more anarchic radicals Amon Dnnl), 1970s Yeti is their first masterpiece, one of the defining early albums of Krautrock. A double album on vinyl (most CD issues have squeezed the two discs onto one CD by cutting three minutes out of "Pale Gallery"; the Captain Trips CD restores it to its full five-minute length), Yeti consists of a set of structured songs and a second disc of improvisations. It's testament to the group's flui   [ read more ]

There aren't many double art rock albums from the early '70s that have stood the test of time, but then again, there aren't many albums like Tanz Der Lemminge, and there certainly aren't many groups like Amon Dnnl II. While exact agreement over which of their classic albums is the absolute standout may never be reached, in terms of ambition combined with good musicianship and good humor, the group's third album is still probably the best candidate. The musical emphasis is more on expansive arrangem   [ read more ]
