Faust's career is known to be split in half. You've got the seventies period including records like So Far and IV and then you've got their "comeback" period which started in the nineties with this album. Even though they were to sound much different on later albums like Wakes Nosferatu and Ravvivando; You Know Faust, which was released in 1996, sounds quite similar to how they sounded on their earlier records. Like a modern version of The Faust Tapes, this album contains many shorter experimental tracks with longer "rock" tracks. Na Sowas is a fourteen minutes long aural assault which ends with a creepy retelling of the famous french children's story "M. Seguin". In fact, there is a lot more french-speaking on this record then usual. I can't say I listen to it very often, I usually stick with So Far, IV and 71 Minutes, but it's actually very good and is definitely worth investigating. |
