Faust (German for "fist") is the debut studio album by the experimental music band Faust. It was released in 1971 on Polydor Records. Although it was never a commercial success, Faust has garnered much acclaim from rock critics.

Background

In 1971, Polydor entered a deal with Uwe Nettelbeck to assemble a musical ensemble that could compete with the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, and Small Faces. Before the release of their debut, Faust would send tapes to Polydor containing anything from studio experiments to recordings of someone washing dishes.[1]

Cover artwork

The original LP record was on clear vinyl in a clear cover with an X-ray of a human fist silkscreened on the outer sleeve. It also included a transparent plastic sheet with the lyrics and credits printed in red.

}}AllMusic critic Archie Patterson lauded the band's accomplishment, writing that "The impact of Faust cannot be overstated; their debut album was truly a revolutionary step forward in the progress of "rock music"." He awarded Faust four and a half out of five stars, concluding that "the level of imagination is staggering, the concept is totally unique and it's fun to listen to as well."[2]
