A masterclass in 1971 Dutch rock, blending heavy fuzz guitars with unexpected sitar melodies and Mariska Veres's commanding, mysterious alto.
1971 · Minos (2)
This album is a masterclass in the 'mysterious edge' that defined the Dutch rock scene of the early 1970s. It feels like a bridge between the gritty garage rock of the late sixties and the more expansive, atmospheric experimentation of the new decade. The sound is anchored by Robbie van Leeuwen's songwriting, which manages to feel both earthy and otherworldly, often within the same track. It is the sound of a band that has found its groove and is unafraid to push its boundaries.
