First Utterance
There are albums that defy categorization, records that exist in a space entirely their own. Comus' 1971 debut is one such work - an album that, over fifty years later, still sounds like nothing else ever recorded. Formed in Beckenham in the late 1960s, Comus emerged from the same South London arts scene that nurtured a young David Bowie - indeed, they performed at his legendary Beckenham Free Festival in August 1969. But while their contemporaries in the British folk revival looked back to trad…

LP version. Ohr present a reissue of Amon Düül's Paradieswärts Düül, originally released in 1971.

Psychedelic Underground
Temporary reduced price. LP version. 180 gram vinyl, gatefold sleeve. The debut album from the original Amon Düül commune collective, released in 1969, stands as one of the most radical and uncompromising documents of the entire German underground scene.

Recorded in a single marathon session, the albu…

Faust
Few debut albums arrive with the kind of self-contained logic and radical spirit found on Faust's self-titled 1971 statement. Released at the height of rock music's imperial phase, it marked the beginning of a project that would sidestep genre and expectation entirely, offering instead a fractured, exploratory take on what popular music could become. This Bureau B reissue offers a fresh opportunity to engage with one of the most curious and uncompromising records of its time. Faust emerged from …

Third Ear Band
For many bands, having all their gear stolen would be catastrophic. For Third Ear Band, this unfortunate 1968 incident opened a portal to beneficial change that would ultimately define one of British experimental music's most singular statements. Now, Antarctica Starts Here presents the first-time vinyl reissue of the group's self-titled 1970 sophomore album - often called Elements due to its elemental track titles - complete with new liner notes by Dave Segal that illuminate this remarkable cha…
Dreamlab
Temporary reduced price. LP version. The second album from Berlin-based electronic group Mythos, originally released in 1975, represents a crucial bridge between the cosmic folk of their debut and the full-blown Berlin school sound that would dominate the second half of the decade. Mastermind Stephan Kaske guided the band into deeper electronic territories here, crafting sound cascades and sequencer patterns that align them with the visionary work of Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel on the same…

Distance Between Us
Double LP reissue of this legendary dark psych minimal masterpiece! "The music on this bizarre double album from 1972 is somewhere between gothic horror and psychedelic. Don Bradshaw Leather was apparently some kind of British occult group who self-released this album with no credits. (Also, on the record cover the name is spelled “Bradsham-Leather,” not Bradshaw Leather, as it is referred to in everything from the Nurse With Wound list to the book and web guide on early U.K. psychedelic rock -T…
Osmose
LP version. Reissue of the 1970 krautrock classic. The timing was right: Five years earlier would have been too early, five years later would have been too late. But Annexus Quam from Kamp-Lintfort near Düsseldorf came along with the right music at the right moment. The seven-piece band formed in 1967 as Ambition Of Music; they were what was then called a "beat group." In 1970, working with a local trombone choir led to a dramatic change of direction. Trombone, clarinet, saxophone, scat-like voc…

More Intra Musique
When glancing over the history of indigenous French free improvised music, there tends to be two observable categories of musicians - those who worked and collaborated with their counterparts from abroad, and those who worked independently. The former is generally more celebrated, and among those the drummer Jacques Thollot, who worked with Don Cherry, Steve Lacy, Sonny Sharrock, Sam Rivers, Joachim Kühn, and numerous others, as well as with French pioneers like Barney Wilen and Jef Gilson, rank…
