Pyramid mag ich sehr. Wäre auch unter den Top 30. Let Me Go besitze ich momentan nicht und müsste ich mir erst wieder beschaffen.

2006 konnte die Platte mich nicht so begeistern. Ich werde sie mir aber wohl bei Gelegenheit mal wiederbeschaffen.

Damals fand ich Molina immer am besten, wenn eine komplette Band mit einbezogen wurde was mich dazu veranlasste, seine reinen Solo Werke zu verkaufen. „Songs;Ohia“ und „Let Me Go“ fanden Käufer. „Pyramid“ zum Glück nicht. Ein intensives Hörerlebnis ist es in der Tat und aus heutiger Sicht gar doppelt erschütternd. Von daher, freue ich mich sehr auf die Platte, die zum Glück hier in HH noch in einigen Plattenläden aufzufinden ist.
