List at YouTube:


Bachdenkel's French adventures were so different and varied forms that their first album Lemmings, started in 1970, took almost three years to finish and saw the light of day in the summer of 73. By that time (and by living in a remote part of deep southern France), their album sounded quite dated (many traces of 60's psychedelia lingering in the rock), but in all fairness it has aged rather well. The trio, augmented by sound, light, occasional keyboardist and producer Karel Beer played a guitar-oriented prog rock (though both the bassist and guitarist so add some keyboards)

It's clear that the group's roots lay in psychedelia, as the album is filled with fuzzed out instruments and vocals, sometimes sounding like a Floydish Beatles, vocally both lead vocalist Swinburne and back up Kimberley sing in late 60's fashion as well. Settlement Song has quite a bit of the very early status quo, but ends in a fierce guitar indulgence, quite convincingly. A first highlight. With its intro partly pumped on some religious theme, Faceless is probably the heaviest track around on the album and the back cover artwork with a typical but constantly evolving war-march beat.

The three bonus tracks () are more or less in line with the album, and actually in the mass of it, so that you barely noticed them after the first few listens ,

Although they are good, I find Bachdenkel's legend a tad over-rated. () (Sean Trane / progarchives.com)
