content

In contrast to the Leucocyte album, which was not rated particularly well by the critics , 301 is a release in the tradition of its predecessors such as Tuesday Wonderland or Viaticum and perhaps one of the strongest EST albums ever. After a very successful tour of Germany, the band seemed to be at the height of their work. The critics received the album enthusiastically and emphasized that, in contrast to other posthumous works, this one has nothing of a leftover recycling.

success

The album reached the top of the German jazz charts for one month in April 2012 .
