Pyramid is an instrumental trio hailing from Nuremberg, Germany. Their new album Beyond Borders Of Time is the follow-up to their 2019 debut album. A mesmerizing journey through stoner psychedelia and progressive e instrumental rock, it weaves a kaleidoscopic landscape that unfolds like a sonic travel through time and space. Their craftsmanship and heady grooves make them a must-have for fans of bands like My Sleeping Karma or Yawning Man. The first stones to Pyramid were placed at the house of former singer Steinmetz (Sascha Dametz), together with former drummer Julian Klusacek, bassist Michael Kümpflein, and guitarist Shane Saban. After Klusacek left Germany for Bali and vocalist Steinmetz decided to follow his own path, the band welcomed drummer Lukas Schomann on board, opening the door to the now-trio full potential and helping define their sound. After the release of their debut album in 2019, two European tours, multiple shows and festivals appearances in Germany (including performances alongside Colour Haze and Elder), Pyramid is now ready to unfold its magical seven-tracker Beyond Borders of Time.

33 minutes of pure, unadulterated, psychedelic krautrock courtesy of Pyramid, an obscure studio project produced by Toby Robinson, aka The Mad Twiddler. These sessions were recorded circa 1975-76 in Cologne for the underground Pyramid label, which was operated by Toby and his friend Robin Page (the Fluxus artist). During that time, Toby worked as engineer and assistant at various studios in Cologne, including the famous Dieter Dierks studios, where most of the albums from the Ohr/Pilz/Cosmic Courier catalog were registered. Having access to the studios during dead hours, Toby recorded lot of sessions just for fun without any commercial interest, featuring friends and musicians who frequented the studios and the underground art/music scene of Cologne. Some of these sessions were later released as handmade vinyl micro-pressings on his Pyramid label with help from artist Robin Page. Master tape sound. Includes insert with liner notes by Alan Freeman. RIYL: Pink Floyd, Cosmic Jokers, Agitation Free, Ash Ra Tempel, Gila, Porcupine Tree, Amon Düül II. "... from trippy phases with echo guitars and Mellotron onto headfirst plunges into space-rock overdrive territory. In all, an excellent album of spacey krautrock" --Alan Freeman
