Krautrock #10: Annexus Quam - Osmose

This is the stuff. From its insane cover (the flaps fold up to form a pyramid) to its seriously hairy mix of hippy mysticism and twisted jazz-rock meditation music, its probably the most deserving secret gem in the whole list. If you can bear the references, this is Ash Ra Tempel plays the Third Ear Band. Gloriously trippy, and well worth a listen.

1. Osmose I
2. Osmose II
3. Osmose III

This is incredible, Marc, maybe the best thing so far. It would put me in mind of Vibracathedral Orchestra if VCO weren't such headbangers.
