"The most central and irrational faith among people is the faith in technology and economical growth. It's priests believe until their death that material prosperity bring enjoyment and happiness - even though all the proofs in history have shown that only lack and attempt cause a life worth living, that the material prosperity doesn't bring anything else than despair. These priests believe in technology still when they choke in their gas masks."
- Pentti Linkola
Leaving this album on your coffee table for your guests to find, is a sure way to give you some confused looks, if not make them leave altogether. Ecoterrorism has never been a hot topic, or icebreaker, in my circles either. Although I'm pretty much against doctrines and isms by principle, I have no problem examining, and some times even enjoying, controversial themes and topics.
Combining concepts of radical ecology and Indo-European traditionalism with harsh electronics, and the group name being a wordplay on the Rote Armee Fraktion, this is an unforgiving fist in the face of modern society. Originally released as a limited CDr, it was remastered and released with new artwork and two additional bonus tracks by Steinklang Industries in 2005.
Like Martin stated in an interview with Plague Haus, "..the first actual recording and release of G.A.F. was the 'Chlorophyll Flood' CDr. It was of course not very good, but it has it’s charm, and in it's rereleased and remastered shape it is almost listenable."
Try it out for yourself, but remember to not get your panties in a twist. It's extremity in sound and concept.
