Paternoster were an Austrian band around between 1970 to 1972. They had a krautrock/prog sound and only recorded this one album, with very few copies being released.

The music is what you would expect of a guitar led band with that genre description to sound like, but the atmosphere of this record is wonderful. It's a real oppressive downer vibe and another nice winter listen.

Originally released on CBS, recent years have seen several re-issues on Now-Again Records and Ohrwaschl Records.
