Silberbart - 4 Times Sound Razing. 1971 Germany


An appropriately named album, as Silberbart on their sole album provide the listener with four very long freaked out blues psych tracks similar to 'Bo Diddley' era Guru Guru. This isn't an album you hear much about, other than from early 70s hard rock collectors, but it's more towards the psychotic Krautrock sound than the usual straightforward 4/4 blues rock (vocal style notwithstanding). When compared to groups like Hairy Chapter, Haze, Light of Darkness, Dies Irae, Second Life, and dozens more, Silberbart is the clear winner.


Ownership: LP: 1971 Philips, Single sleeve. Online reacquisition (2023).

CD: 2012 Long Hair. Jewel case release with liner notes.

I picked up an original of this LP back in my mad "wheeling and dealing" days (1994) and that was my introduction the album. I traded it out for something more of my liking back then.


1994 (first listen); 9/29/11 (review); 2/16/13 (update / new entry)
