Andexelt is the eighth album by the Finnish experimental rock band Circle. It was released in 1999 by Metamorphos, and re-issued the following year by tUMULt with an extra track.

Critical reception

[edit]

Allmusic's Brian Way called Andexelt "the most linear and rewarding of all of Circle's vast catalog." Way added that the band's sound on the album comes closer "to American retro-futurists like Trans Am, the Octopus Project, and Six Finger Satellite than their usual Krautrock forebears."[1] Paul Cooper of Pitchfork remarked that the album "surpasses Brainticket's Adventure, and equals Can's Future Days in loaded grace."[2] A review of the album in a 2001 issue of The Wire said with "the seductive formulae of complex 4/4 rhythm clusters and low slung basslmes, it's an album of Arctic atmospheres, highlighted by the near Thomas Kbner-like frigidity of 'Fnitalan Mashick'".[3]
