AVALANCHE (NL) PERSEVERANCE KILLS OUR GAME (1979 prog folk masterpiece) CD
GUERSSENThisfirst ever reissue, done in cooperation with the original band members, comes with a booklet featuring rare photos andliner notes by psych-connoisseur/journalist Richard Allen.
Originally released in a tiny run of 500 copies (mainly meant for family and friends) in 1979, here's a remastered reissue of a genuine progressive/psychedelic folkrock masterpiece from Holland.
The band used acoustic and electric guitars (at timeswith fuzz), bass, drums, flute, piano and sparse vocals (inEnglish), resulting in songs that ranged from delicate tohaunting to fierce. Despite being a low-budget project,recorded in a single day, it's a stunning work, sounding likeFairport Convention jamming with early Ash Ra Tempel.
