Foehn, France


Faeria. 1985 private

Many years ago I used a description to sell this album that compared Foehn to a mix of Zeuhl and late era new wave pop bands like Swing Out Sister. The customer who bought it, wrote back to tell me that he agreed completely with that comparison and it's why he bought it. That observation has held. Difference is that concept is far more appealing to me than it was in the middle 90s. There's also some fine guitar  here, an instrument that can sometimes be underutilized in the Zeuhl world. A very good album, that I appreciate more now that ever.

Priority: 2
