   • A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (1971) A remarkable feat of tape editing as much as songwriting, questions of existential dread, alienation and mortality are fed into the quartet’s musical machinery resulting in a multifaceted, kaleidoscopic masterpiece.
   • Sleepwalkers (1975) Any track from their 70s comeback, Godbluff, would count as a classic but this one just tiptoes ahead. In a piece replete with sonic details, Guy Evans’ drumming and percussion is outstanding.
   • Lemmings (including Cog) (1971) Brimming with dissonant chords, oppressive industrial thrumming, violently clashing forces and anguished shrieks, VdGG’s starkly-lit account of a dystopian society hell-bent on self-destruction, is meshed in towering, claustrophobic layers.
   • Every Bloody Emperor (2005) From their triumphant return with Present, what is in effect a protest song skewers politicians’ post-truth rhetoric and the reality of deeds, raging against the lure of the populist demagogue and our failure to learn from history.

   What is a van de Graaff generator?

   • Since a Van de Graaff generator can supply the same small current at almost any level of electrical potential, it is an example of a nearly ideal current source. The maximal achievable potential is roughly equal to the sphere radius R multiplied by the electric field Emax at which corona discharges begin to form within the surrounding gas.
