Album Cover  

Faust's most experimental album up to this point was also it's most popular. Well, at the price of only forty-eight pences a pop during it's release, that's no big surprise! Whoever bought the record for the price must have been in for quite a shock, because this album is totally off-the-wall! Twenty-six tracks of pure mischievous mayhem. There are plenty of short experimental sound collages throughout, then some "real" songs like Flashback Caruso which is pure Faust as it morphs from cute folk song to loud mosquito-guitar freak-out. One of my favorite Faust tracks is here: J'ai Mal Aux Dents, an unrelenting, demented pop song. And then more electronic tidbits. There's something for everybody here! Another reason to why it became so popular? Maybe! The album's strangest song: the eleventh Untitled track. It's only fifty seconds long, but that's all it takes to bend your brain out of shape. Mind-blowing!
