Here’s what the press have raved about Hedersleben!
\u201cIf you enjoy the atmosphere of 60s psych, with some early Floyd percussion and Doorsesque keyboard work, brought right up to date with modern synth playing and song writing then this album is likely to bring you a great deal of pleasure. Certainly for me it pushed all the right buttons and comes highly recommended.\u201d – Steve Judd, Terrascope, UK
\u201cIn the end not only is the music trance-like and hypnotic it’s also downright enjoyable, even entertaining. Is it retro or nostalgic? I suppose some might consider it so, but Hedersleben seem to have a very strong grip on the music they wish to create and they do it well.\u201d – New Prog Releases
\u201cA California bases band, named after a city halfway between Hanover and Berlin, featuring two former members of UK punk band, the UK Subs, playing seventies styled Krautrock \/ spacerock. But sometimes, weird is good.\u201d – The Rocker, UK
\u201cThe tunes are strong and the artists are all well adept at their craft. Dig prog rock? You will dig this!
4 Stars\u201d – Bop & Jazz (Critical Jazz), USA
\u201cThe imposing ‘Zu Den Neuen Welten’ ideally illustrates this paradox, long instrumental pad 17 minutes looking like a relic unearthed by archaeologists sound. A listen, it’s like back over forty years ago with the same sound and the same patina fluffy atmospheres. And it works.\u201d – Music Waves, France
\u201cIt’s a tranquil end to Die Neuen Welten an album with many ebbs & flows, lots of little nuances popping up that tantalize your senses without trying to do too much but certainly providing enough of a spark to keep you hooked from start to finish.\u201d – Sea Of Tranquility, USA
\u201cThe band take the listener into a bath of space rock almost time between ‘Space Oddity’ by David Bowie, the solo works of Syd Barrett, the epics of Hawkwind and classic albums of Tangerine Dream. For a pageant is a pageant.\u201d – Rock Folk Blues, Belgium
\u201cThe band brings you along on a journey through sound and space as they stretch out their sound, which makes Pink Floyd’s ‘Meddle’ sound like a pop song compared to this adventurous piece of music.\u201d – JP’s Music Blog, USA
\u201cKrautrock rhythms, hazy atmospheres and ‘Ummagumma’ style psychedelic freakouts. What more could you ask for?\u201d – Aural Innovation, USA
