"So Far" is a seminal CD release by the pioneering German band Faust, presented here in a carefully produced edition by Bureau B / Indigo. Originally emerging from the early 1970s Krautrock movement, Faust are known for their radical sound experiments, tape collage aesthetics and fearless fusion of rock, noise, improv and avant-garde composition. "So Far" captures the group at a crucial creative peak: tracks move between hypnotic grooves, abstract soundscapes and fragmented song structures, always driven by a sense of playful subversion and sonic curiosity. The album remains a reference point for experimental rock and has influenced generations of post-punk, industrial, noise and alternative artists across the globe. This CD edition offers a focused, album-length journey through Faust's distinctive world of distorted organs, unconventional rhythms and surreal atmospheres - ideal for listeners who appreciate music that constantly challenges and expands the boundaries of rock.
Bureau B / Indigo has established itself as one of the most important labels and distributors for sophisticated, artistically ambitious music from Germany and beyond. With a strong focus on reissues, archival editions and new productions in the fields of Krautrock, electronic music, experimental pop and ambient, Bureau B is regarded as a trusted curator for historically significant catalogues. Their releases are characterized by great attention to sound quality, design and detailed liner notes, making them highly attractive to collectors and discerning music fans. By issuing "So Far" on CD, Bureau B / Indigo once again underlines its commitment to preserving groundbreaking works and making them accessible to new generations of listeners.
Faust themselves rank among the most influential and enigmatic bands of the German avant-rock scene. Formed in the early 1970s, they quickly became synonymous with the adventurous spirit of Krautrock, released a string of highly innovative albums on forward-thinking labels and developed a reputation for confrontational live performances and studio experiments that ignored all conventional rules. Though never a mainstream act, Faust's body of work is frequently cited by critics and musicians alike as a cornerstone of experimental rock history, and their albums are regularly rediscovered by new audiences in search of music that sounds truly ahead of its time.
