Faust So Far, also simply called So Far, is a 1972 album by German krautrock group Faust.[1] [2] This, the band's second studio album, has a more commercially typical structure than its predecessor; it comprises nine separate tracks, each consisting of an individual and distinct musical style or theme.

The album was issued in a black sleeve with black inner sleeve, black labels and a set of inserts with one print for each song on the album.[3]

Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote: "Bizarre little experiments pop up between songs: overlays of effects-treated guitars and the like, sort of a German analogue to the Mothers of Invention’s early sound adventures."[4]
