Album Notes & Community Reviews

Taking a slight detour from their sprawling Kobaïan mythology, Christian Vander's legendary ensemble incorporated exceptionally dense, rhythmic jazz-funk basslines heavily driven by Bernard Paganotti. 'Üdü Ẁüdü' remains a fiercely technical, remarkably dark Zeuhl masterwork, maintaining an incredibly martial, deeply hypnotic, and mysteriously apocalyptic epic atmosphere.
