About Apocalypse

Many bands with this name. 1. A german beat/psychedelic rock band which existed from 1966 to 1969, also known as "Die anderen". They released two albums, "Kannibal Komix" in 1968 and "Apocalypse" in 1969. With the "Apocalypse" album the band developed and refined their music toward psychedelic rock without denying the psych pop roots found on "Kannibal Komix". The tracks became longer, the instrumentation many sided (great sitar in "Let die"). Intelligent compositions with great vocals make this underrated band a true must. 2.
