Armaggedon - S/T (Missing Vinyl, MV009) GER 1970




Released on the small german Kuckuck-Label this is the only Album by the Berlin-based Band called Armaggedon (The british Armageddon have already been featured on this Blog). Just talked to Lebensmensch and noticed the wrong spelling of the Name on the Cover...we both think that either the Band and/or Kuckuck fucked it up - not good when you can't even figure out how to write your own Band's Name ;)

Anyway...If you are looking for well played Hardrock with Blues- and Prog-Elements shaped up with that special Krautrock-Feeling then you should definitely go for this one. Beside self composed Tracks like Round or Oh Man there are coverversions of Jeff Beck's Rice Pudding (nice effects on this one!) and Spooky Tooth's Better By You, Better Than Me

This really is a good Album, not only for German-Standards as well as a strong Contender for a Slot in my personal Krautrock Top 20

  1. I can't say much about that cover. They probably wanted to add a 'd' but it went out and it was too late.

  2. You Mr. Lebensmensch are not old enough to know it so i'll try to explain it to you. 'D's were very expensive back then. Not every one could afford at lot of Ds on their covers.
