Rien is a 1994 album by the German krautrock group Faust. [3] [4] It was their fifth album, and their first reunion album. The album was produced by Jim O'Rourke. [5] [6]
Trouser Press called the album "more a return to form than The Faust Concerts, with droning violins, pounding industrial synthesizers, odd sound effects, trumpet improvisations and, of course, power tools combining in an experimental haze." [5]
I had tapes of live shows and I went through them and found a point where the bass drum was hit and you can't hear anything else, so that's my bass drum. And oh, here's a guitar part where he plays a note very distinctly and you can't hear anything else. So, all of the guitar parts and the singing and everything else is all pieced together note by note.
