Message was a British-German rock band active during the early 1970s, blending genres like krautrock, hard rock, and heavy psych. Their second album, From Books and Dreams (1973), is considered a dark and intense exploration of dream-like, unconscious fears. Produced by Dieter Dirks, the album features heavy guitar riffs, eerie saxophone lines, and complex song structures, creating a spine-tingling, atmospheric experience.

The album is known for its haunting soundscapes and experimental approach, with tracks like "Dreams and Nightmares" showcasing a mix of heavy rock guitar and unsettling, nightmarish elements. It holds a unique place in the krautrock scene, drawing comparisons to bands like Nektar and early Black Sabbath due to its dark tone and raw production

It's a cult favorite among progressive rock fans for its moody, psychedelic aesthetic and intense, almost cinematic sonic experience.
