Virus (germany)
Thoughts
Limited repress. Originally released in 1971 on famous German Pilz Label, 'Thoughts' was the second and last album of a band which is often regarded as one of the most legendary krautrock bands. While the first album 'Revelation' was full of inventions and surprises within long tracks with extensive guitar workout, swirling organ and lots of improvisations, 'Thoughts' showed a different style to the debut. With two different lead vocalists (Jurgen Schafer and Werner Vogt) Virus' music was now more song oriented, more hard-rock and blues focused. That meant a step towards more song oriented Frumpy, but with a wild psychedelic edge and lyrics about drugs and paranoia, close to Pilz label-mates Dies Irae. The album comes with detailed liner notes by Virus singer (also bass and guitar) Werner Vogt.
