Artist Info: Baumstam

An obscure German hard rock/heavy metal group. They recorded one album in 1972 called 'On Tour' which is highly collectable today. Similar to other semi-obscure bands like Guru Guru,Reaction, and Incredible Hog from the same era. The guitars are heavy on the fuzz distortion sound(like Blue Cheer and stoner-revival groups in US) Listen to "Fifteen Years Old Mary" for a good example. This debut album was partly recorded live in Germany, and is the only widely known release by them. [read more...]
