Originally released in 1972 on Polydor, Reaction is a raw, high-voltage blast of Hard Rock, Blues Rock, and Heavy Psych from Hamburg’s loudest and most electrifying trio.
Forged in post-’60s Germany and driven by Peter Braun’s searing guitar work and vision, this overlooked gem finally gets the recognition it deserves. Reissued by Yunque Records, the album delivers a tightly wound, riff-heavy assault that hits hard from the first note to the last—no filler, no compromise. Reaction made a name for themselves onstage with a sound so powerful it rattled the walls of community halls and even got them banned from a festival before their set began.
More than 50 years later, Reaction still sounds urgent, loud, and alive. A defining record that captures the raw spirit of Germany’s ’70s underground rock movement. Turn it up. Let the walls shake.
