Ibliss (germany)
Supernova
Ibliss were founded in the Rhineland area in 1971. The band played instrumental progressive jazz-rock, heavy on percussions. With their sound they are comparable to Embryo, Brainstorm, Xhol, or Thirsty Moon. Two of the band's more known names are Andreas Hohmann and Basil Hammoudi. The former was on drums on Kraftwerk's first LP. The latter did the percussion on the only LP of Kraftwerk's predecessor Organisation. Ibliss released only one LP called "Supernova". It was recorded with Conny Plank in 1972, and then released in a small edition on Aamok, a sublabel of Spiegelei. In 2008 a bootleg version from Retro Disc International appeared on the market. This cheap sorry effort was supposed to come from Spain, like it was marked on the cover, but, in effect, is instead from Germany. The legitimate edition on Garden of Delights comes with a 32-page booklet incl. a large band story, many photos etc.
