1982-1986

MCH BAND

2xCD Maxi Jewel-Box (TK 0003-2312) - TomK

The work of the MCH Band on this archivally assembled collection could well give The Plastic People Of The Universe a run for their money as the most formidable and outwardly bound Czech unit active during the period represented here.
Led by guitarist / sax player Mikolas Chadima, the array of tracks at hand from a decade or so earlier than "Gib Acht" (their more acclaimed album) are a good bit more rawboned and raucous.
They schematically divided this two disc set between rock and improvised sections, disc one offering up a magnificent array of nervous avant rock motion, tense atmospheric gestures and bass driven minor key grooves that jibe rather a lot with many of the best outfits out of Czechoslovakia during this era from E to Psi Vojaci to Pro Pocit Jistoty.
Disc two veers off into much more purgatorial zones of mystery, abstraction and unease that are almost Einsturzende Neubauten-like at times.
