In 1993, Electric Orange almost single-handedly restored the cosmic Krautrock genre back to greatness (with the exception of some truly obscure outfits like Attempt to Restore, Nova Express, and Der Kampf Gegen den Schlaf). They took a detour shortly thereafter into the realms of electronica, realized the error of their ways, and returned back to form in 2001 with Abgelaufen!. Since that time, Electric Orange have gone from amateur to professional status, added more band members, and have released a number of quality albums with consistency.

I've gone back and forth on this title, but in the end, it's too static for my tastes. A lot of rumblin' and bumblin' but it never seems to take off or go anywhere. It's a fine effort for developing a particular kind of atmosphere, yet I couldn't identity what that is.
