Monday's Long Song

 


In 2013, one of krautrock's most underrated bands returned with a new album. Agitation Free was founded in Berlin in 1967 and their instrumental improvisations were unusually long for the time. With an independent mixture of improvised rock paired with electro, ethno and trance elements, they found a large fan base.

After splitting up in the seventies, they released a new album, Momentum, 24 years later. Even after these years, the album is characterised by guitars that shimmer through time and space. Momentum is no longer as experimental as it once was, but it is still powerful and full of rhythmic and melodic beauty. Sometimes the songs are reminiscent of the best times of Steve Hillage and Kraan, which can't be a bad thing.
