For 40 years, although this has been listed as a 'solo' release by Magma's founder, this is, for all intents & purposes, the fourth Magma album, having been released between M.D.K. and Kohntarkhoz.
Now, for this snazzy vinyl reissue, it's been rightfully renamed as being by MAGMA, and more importantly, features a clear photo from the film that this was a soundtrack of (sort of - long story), and you can see for yourself how much the costumes predate GWAR by 15 years!
Stripped down to the barest essentials of electric and acoustic pianos (all played by Christian), bass by Janick Top, choir (Vander, Klaus Blasquiz and Rene Garber) and drums by Vander, this is the purest, distilled essence of the Magma ethos.
This was the first album where Magma really CLICKED for me. I had heard them earlier and had 'liked' them, but this is where I grew to really appreciate them. A brilliant, unique album, and probably my single favorite work by them if I was forced to choose. Luckily, I don't have to.
"Ẁurdah Itah is available as a limited edition of 2000 individually numbered copies on purple colored vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve."
