Their eponymous debut album was distributed via an Italian independent label BTF in 2010. He highlighted the music on the first CD with his flute and stayed with the band until end of 2009. The 4th Spacelord Reinhold (flute) came into the band in May 2008. His precise and groovy bass playing makes The SPACELORDS' style possible. After more than 20 years playing the guitar, he began on the bass guitar in 2006. Marcus, who's traveling to west Africa since 1991, to study traditional rhythms, but is also into psychedelic music for over 25 years, Matthias, influenced by his trips to India since the seventies and playing his guitar for more than 3 decades, and Klaus, who first started 1978 in Russia as a drummer, but then changed soon to his favourite instrument - the guitar. As the ideas came so quick and the feeling was there from the first moment, it was clear: Even each of them had his own personal style and background, they had found a common sense in music. Matthias and Klaus already had a few song-ideas and after a couple of weeks almost half of the first CD was arranged. Lovers of space sonorities will be pleasantly impressed, another excellent chapter in their discography.The SPACELORDS started in April 2008, when Marcus SCHNITZLER (drums, djembe, percussion, special effects) joined Matthias WETTSTEIN (guitars) and Klaus WERZ (bass) for a first session. Now a certainty of their kind, with a record that is an authentic journey that combines classic and modern sounds with the characteristic style of the Spacelords. A good conclusion for this trilogy, and a confirmation for this band that moves very well in the Space/Psych territory. This song features more rhythmic changes than the previous ones, with the guitar and its effects that lead us on the journey. “ Frau Kuhknes Kosmos” is the shortest and the most rhythmically track, with a sped up tempo and in some passages it increases in intensity. In the final part it becomes a little heavier and more distorted, with a good guitar solo. It is the song that gives the album its title, the sounds are open and psychedelic, while still maintaining marked space influences. “ Spaceflowers” has a rhythm with a denser and less acidic bass, more distorted and cutting guitar melodies and a more powerful drum. The guitar offers trippy inserts, with effected melodies and sounds that come and go, there is no better title. “ Cosmic Trip” has a repeated and distorted, dark and penetrating rhythmic session, with the bass and its distorted and hypnotic lines. The three tracks show as many stylistic facets that the genre can assume, with different rhythms and atmospheres. It consists of three long tracks as the band has often accustomed us, with the usual dynamism and intensity of the trio from Reutlingen, Germany. “ Spaceflowers” out on February 21, 2020 on Tonzonen Records is the third and final chapter of the trilogy composed of “ Liquid Sun” of 2016 and “ Water Planet” of 2017. One of their main characteristics is the proposal of long epic pieces, real musical journeys that project the listener into the deepest space. The Spacelords are a German Psychedelic/Space Rock band, one of the most popular and famous of the current European scene.
