Thoughts, recorded ░▐ ▌░ only six months after the debut, shows a radically different ░▐ ▌░ group with only two original members. The tracks are much ░▐ ▌░ shorter and song-oriented, as the group trades in space rock ░▐ ▌░ for a more conventional blues-rock sound. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ There is still some nice work here, some great psychedelic ░▐ ▌░ guitar and keyboard workouts, especially on the dark track ░▐ ▌░ "King Heroin," which opens the album. "Mankind, Where Do You ░▐ ▌░ Go?" is even better, as the cut sports a jazz-funk riff and ░▐ ▌░ gloomy chorus vocals. Elga Blask sings on much of the rest of ░▐ ▌░ the album in an unfeminine voice quite similar to Inga ░▐ ▌░ Rumpf's, though not quite as powerful. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ Instrumentally the group sticks close to the sound of Frumpy, ░▐ ▌░ Rumpf's band in the early '70s who featured similar ░▐ ▌░ psychedelic guitar and organ work. Unfortunately, there are ░▐ ▌░ none of the long, wild jam-outs of Frumpy's best material, ░▐ ▌░ though "My Strand-Eyed Girl" has some interesting ░▐ ▌░ percussions. Most of this record is quite good, it's just ░▐ ▌░ that Virus' debut raised the bar too high and this record ░▐ ▌░ pales in comparison. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ▄▄▄┌─────────────┐▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░▐ ▌░ ▒▒▒│ marr │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ░▐ ▌░ └─────────────┘ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ indie . pop . rock . shoegaze . dream . jangle . twee ░▐ ▌░ chamber . noise . c-86 . college . goth . post . kraut ░▐ ▌░ darkwave . alternative . lo-fi . country . americana ░▐ ▌░ folk . folk/rock . psychedelic . progressive . metal ░▐ ▌░ heavy . hair . math . grunge . classic . southern . aor ░▐ ▌░ west coast . punk . garage . avantgarde . classical ░▐ ▌░ electronic . ambient ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ░▌░ ░ █ █ ░ ░▐░ ▌░ ▓▓█ █▓▓ ░▐ ▌░ ░█ █░ ░▐ ▌░ █ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ▒ ░ █ ░▐ ░ ▌░██ ░ ▒█████░ ░█████▒ ░ ██░▐ ░ ▒ ░ ▌░█ ░ ███▓ ▓██ ▒ ▒ ██▓ ▓███ ░ █░▐ ░ ▒ ░██ ▌█▓ ████ █▒ ▒█ ████ ▓░▐ ██░ ░██████░ ███ █ █ ███ ░██████░ ██████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████ ▒███ ███▒ ██ █ █ ██ ▒███ ███▒ ████ ████████ ▒ █ █ ▒ ████████ ████ ████░ ███████░ ░░ █ █ ░░ ░███████ ░████ █████░ ████▒ ▒ ▓█ █▒ ▒█ █▓ ▒ ▒████ ░█████ █████░ ██████████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████████ ░█████ ▒██████ ░ ███████▒ ████▒▒█ █▒▒████ ▒███████ ░ ██████▒ ░ ███░ ███ ░ * █▓▓ ▓▓ ▓▓█ * ░ ███ ░███ ░ █░ ███ █░ *** * * █▒█▒▒██████▒▒█▒█ * * *** ░█ ███ ░█ ████ ██ * ████████ ████████ * ██ ████ ████████ * *** ░ ░██████ ██████░ ░ *** * ████████ █████ ** ░ ████ ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ████ ░ ** █████ ▒█████████████▒▒ ░░ ░░ ▒▒█████████████▒ ░▓██████████▒ ░░ ░░ ▒██████████▓░ ▒█████ ░░ ░░ █████▒ ███ ███ ██ ██ ▒█ █▒ https://play.google.com/store/music/album?id=Bheef6wdu23sjqigkna6iwburxq
