Faust So Far
Faust So Far is a 1972 album by German krautrock group Faust. This, the band's second studio album, has a more commercially typical structure than its predecessor; it comprises nine separate tracks, each consisting of an individual and distinct musical style or theme. The album was issued in a black sleeve with black inner sleeve, black labels and a set of inserts with one print for each song on the album but these have reappeared in the currently available vinyl edition.
