"My Solid Ground were a German progressive rock band active in the 1970s. This obscure krautrock album called My Solid Ground from 1971 has long been considered a classic of the genre. The first track, the 13-minute 'Dirty Yellow Mist', certainly lives up to its reputation as the group embark on a dark space rock journey. It sounds like a mixture of psychedelic rock and progressive rock. With lots of long keyboard tones, a crunchy guitar riff, some acid guitar sounds and distorted chanting as well as some wordless vocals in higher pitches. 'That's You' has enough energy to pass for proto-punk, and the chorus of 'Do you wanna die' doesn't detract from this impression. The song 'The Executioner' is a dark piece that alternates between echoing vocals and intense guitar solos. The songs on the album are characterized by catchy melodies, experimental sounds and lyrical lyrics. If you are a fan of progressive rock or enjoy discovering new music, My Solid Ground could be an interesting choice for you."
