With the band in full artistic flower and 's sometimes moody, sometimes frenetic speak/sing/shrieking in full effect, released not merely one of the best Krautrock albums of all time, but one of the best albums ever, period. Is that rarity of the early '70s, a double album without a wasted note, ranging from sweetly gentle float to full-on monster grooves. 'Paperhouse' starts things brilliantly, beginning with a low-key chime and beat, before amping up into a rumbling roll in the midsection, then calming down again before one last blast. Both 'Mushroom' and 'Oh Yeah,' the latter with filling out the quicker pace with nicely spooky keyboards, continue the fine vibe.

'Halleluwah' - featuring the / rhythm section pounding out a monster trance/funk beat; 's and 's always impressive fills and leads; and 's slow-building ranting above everything - is 19 minutes of pure genius. The near-rhythmless flow of 'Aumgn' is equally mind-blowing, with swaths of sound from all the members floating from speaker to speaker in an ever-evolving wash, leading up to a final jam. 'Peking O' continues that same sort of feeling, but with a touch more focus, throwing in everything from Chinese-inspired melodies and jazzy piano breaks to cheap organ rhythm boxes and near babbling from along the way.
