Original 1970 RARITY!
Fans of hard psych Krautrock need to check into "HITSHOCK", the 1970 Lp by the Petards, often in the same direction as the Gomorrha "Trauma" & Virus "Revelation" Lp's ... hear a taste (listen) below::::
The FAN-MAN says: "Breathtaking! Absolutely tremendous, fuzz guitar driven, prog/psych hard rock. Possibly my favorite krautrock album of all time."
Originally from Germany, The Petards, besides bands like "The Lords" or "The Rattles", were one of Germany's most successful and most popular Beat bands in the mid-sixties. Particularly The Petards - fan clubs (nearly 400) with their tremendous support were extremely helpful for the band's success and sold out venues over the years. In the pop poll of "Music Express" magazine they were voted to be "Best group of new generations". On "Album of the Year” The Petards "Hitshock" reached a 5th place...Continuing the theme. January 1, 1970 release of «Hitshock» hit the top ten, not only Germany, but also France and Belgium. This was followed by performances in Paris, in the hall of «Olympia» with the participation of «Guru Guru», «Jeronimo», «Can», «Amon Duul II», »Frumpy», »Embryo», «Achim Reichel »and others.
Hitshock contains TWO sides filled with energized "electric: underground hard rock compositions, drenched in the "cool" flavors of the old early '70s heavy-rock bands, distortion guitars cut through the tunes like buzzsaws....freakbeat flavor flowing, psychedelic underground to top levels...
