Subversion. 1976 Pole
Certainly the most obscure album on the experimental Pole label. Featuring a crude black and white cover, it's exactly the sort of album you would expect to find on the FLVM label a few years later. This pre-Falstaff outfit mixed complex progressive rock in the Memoriance / Pulsar vein, along with jazz rock sections and some introspective folky moments. Not much cohesion, but they did well with each style they attempted. Very different from anything else on the label, except maybe Emergency Exit. And like that band, Subversion was also not repressed by Tapioca later in the decade, adding to its obscurity.
