Overview
200 Years After The Last War & The Hall Of Floaters In The Sky is a premium double-CD reissue from MiG Music, capturing the definitive "Space Rock" era of Hungary’s greatest musical export, Omega. This collection brings together two pivotal albums that helped the band conquer the international stage in the mid-1970s.
CD1: 200 Years After The Last War (1974) is a symphonic progressive masterpiece. It is most famous for its side-long "Suite," a nearly 20-minute epic that remains one of the cornerstones of European prog-rock. The album was recorded at the legendary Dierks Studios and produced by Peter Hauke.
CD2: The Hall Of Floaters In The Sky (1975) saw the band refine their "Space Rock" sound. Recorded in England at Chipping Norton Studios, it features elaborate orchestrations by Christian Kolonovits and iconic surrealist cover art by Klaus Holitzka. This album cemented Omega's status as a top-tier act in the West, blending complex arrangements with powerful arena-rock energy.
Interesting Facts
- International Breakthrough: After the departure of Gábor Presser in 1971, Omega pivoted from beat music to a harder, progressive sound. These albums were the result of their historic contract with the German label Bacillus/Bellaphon.
- Engineering Legends: 200 Years After The Last War was engineered by Dieter Dierks, the man famous for producing Scorpions' biggest hits.
- Space Rock Pioneers: With these releases, Omega reached a level of production and complexity that rivaled contemporary Western giants like Pink Floyd or Eloy.
- Liner Notes: The included booklet provides a deep dive into the band's history, detailing their 1962 origin and their evolution into a "bombast rock" company.
