Album Notes & Community Reviews

Seeking to expand their reach beyond the Eastern Bloc, the immensely talented Polish trio recorded this ambitious album in West Germany with English vocals. The expansive, largely instrumental compositions heavily feature J贸zef Skrzek's swirling Minimoog layers competing with fiery, jazz-inflected guitar solos. The record successfully demonstrated their virtuosic, cosmic brand of symphonic rock to an international audience.
