Review by
John 'Bobo' Bollenberg

To be on the safe side one can always place this album next to King Crimson's Red yet this album will not only please lovers of avant-garde but songs like "Nucleus," "Rubankh," "Harvest" and "This Far From The Sky" will certainly score with fans of grunge as well. Like Happy Family, Anekdoten knows how to create a surprisingly aggressive sound. From a fierce sound Anekdoten suddenly switches towards modest parts as in "Here" where next to a wall of mellotron sound real violin and real cello bring the calm back bit by bit. If you see what an important role a band like King Crimson has played over the years then you certainly have to take a note of Anekdoten.
