Are you worried about losing your time?  Your teeth?  Well, fear no more, listeners, because Carla and Brad are here to talk about Faust.  Eclectic, unyielding, forward-leaning, and fun — Faust brought their A-game to the studio, time and again.  Today we focus on their manic and beautiful 1973 masterpiece, Faust IV.

Irmler!  Sosna!  Wüsthoff, Zappi, Peron!  You're up!  FAUST FREAKING IV, PEOPLE!!!

Fresh off their tour of Egypt, Greece, Turkey, and Cyprus, Carla and Brad have landed in West Berlin!  In this episode we break down the synth-singed psych rock of Agitation Free's 1972 debut LP, Malesch.  Come for the wax figures, pyramids, and street recordings, stay (or not) for the Hammond solos.

You might say we're doing it for "the Lüülz."  In any case, we play for you today.  Deal?

Did anybody see this snowman, standing in the wind alone?  Damo did ... and Holger, Irmin, Jaki, and Michael, too.

Today we're talking about Can — and specifically, their 1971 double LP, Tago Mago.  John Cale, "I Am the Walrus," and Aleister Crowley get their due, but in the end this is all about the mad genius of five men jamming in a castle.

We are all mushroomheads.
