referencing Rien (LP, Album, 180g) Cr 24
Contrary to some of the other reviews, I think the album is enjoyable. The track "Eroberung Der Stille, Teil I" is one of my favorite outro songs, and it's an experience that evokes a feeling that I haven't felt with many albums. -

Just awful. If you're new to Faust stay far away. -

If you feel like Zone-ing out this is top notch pioneers of the trade reunion. Headphones recommended and listen to the fish. -

AFAIK, this album was not released in 1994, but 1995 (cd) and 1996 (lp). -

This vinyl version appears to be a slightly different mix to the CD edition. -

Not one of my favourite albums by (possibly) the greatest kosmische (or 'krautrock' if you prefer) band of them all. Somewhere along the line, after their reformation, a lot of the musicality, humour, whimsy and charm got lost. It's not the original line-up from the golden age anyway. There's a lot of silence (rien?) on the first few tracks....or they're just very quiet pieces that I struggle to engage with (maybe I'm missing the point?). The lengthy 'Listen To the Fish' track does approach some of the old Faust sound but it's laboured and unconvincing. I don't really like this album much. I hate to be a 'look-back bore' - but if you're new to Faust don't buy this - you'll wonder what all the fuss is about - get their first four albums instead and you won't be disappointed.
Every few years I dig this one out to play but I never enjoy it.
