Unearthed from a single 1973 St Albans concert and lost for over four decades, Flux occupied a strange crossroads between the jazz-rock intensity of the era's most adventurous ense mbles and something genuinely harder to classify. The musicians involved would go on to leave fingerprints across British rock history, making this document of what they were doing before those better-known chapters all the more remarkable. Seelie Court - the world's premier label for rare and previously unreleased archive recordings of underground folk, rock, proto-metal, and psychedelic music presents ex-Babe Ruth and Motiffe, pre-Argent and Flea On The Honey. Flux is the product of 5 musicians playing exactly what they wanted. The result is a coruscating outpouring of intense Art Rock, twisted jazz elements and astonishingly unhinged soloing lead guitar that never, ever relents, as if played by a demonically possessed John McLaughlin gatecrashing a King Crimson session. Violent, apocalyptic and genuinely progressive, a startled Record Mirror reviewer described their 1973 St Albans gig as 'A New Form of Music'. In 2019 the master tape of that very concert was rediscovered. Via a temporal anomaly, 21st-century listeners are now invited to hear a new form of music from 1973, for the first time.
