Progressiverock

Im Mai 1967 gr�ndeten der Gitarrist Dany R�hle und der Schlagzeuger Roger Maurer (beide ex-Shivers) gemeinsam mit Mario Conza (Bass) die Gruppe Shiver. In der Band gl�nzte vor allem Dany R�hle, der nicht nur Jimi Hendrix-Nummern wie "Fire" oder "Manic depression" fantastisch beherrschte, sondern auch eine feine Bluesgitarre spielen konnte.

Obscure Swiss band THE SHIVER which released its sole artifact WALPURGIS in 1969 and displayed the very first album cover to feature the macabre art of Swiss artist H.R. Giger. The title WALPURGIS is thought of as an ancient Pagan holiday or the spring equivalent of Halloween but in modern times is better known as the holy time of the year for the Satanic cults that worship Molech and other dark forces like Lucifer or Satan.
WALPURGIS is a strange but IMHO woefully overlooked album from the early nascent cradle of when the progressive rock world was taking its first steps out of the melting pot of 60s psychedelia. This is a bizarre album in many ways but mostly musically because in its brief 34 minute run, the album displays many sounds that seem unrelated but yet somehow are cohesively tied by a mysterious atmosphere that permeates the various sounds on display. One of the first idiosyncrasies of the album is that it begins not with a heavy vocal driven rocker that was self-penned by the band but rather sets the tone with a lengthy seven minute cover of Procol Harum's 'Repent Walpurgis' which is psychedelic instrumental treat fortified with J.S. Bach's 'Prelude No. 1' from the 'Well-Tempered Clavier' only with a dreamy organ, lazy beatnik percussive drive and melodic soaring blues guitar riffs that find an independent bass groove independently set apart from the rest of the crowd. As the lengthiest piece and most progressive of the pack, is the likely reason that THE SHIVER has for so long been included on lists of some of the earliest examples of proto-progressive rock.
