Franco Battiato's wonderfully lively 1973 concept album Pollution is an audaciously psychedelic albumádrawn fromáthe space rock dimension withágoodáportions of electronics and keyboard layers. Drawing heavily on the VCS3 synthesizer, Battiato and company (besides himself, three backing band members play synth as well) give Pollution an extreme electronic edge. With comparisons to Ash Ra Tempel, Faust, and Pink Floyd, Pollution was declared "genius" by Frank Zappa.áExtremely influentialáon the '90s Chicago post-rock mafia.áOriginal artwork. New detailed liner notes.
