LP version. "It's the terror of knowing what this world is about," David Bowie sang in 1981, backed by Queen. He performed the remarkable feat of taking a song with such lyrics and creating a hit. Von Spar's Under Pressure also knows what this world is about, with it's intimidatory posturing, acute social competition and the fight for survival as we enter an age of surveillance capitalism. The music's inherent urgency is in evidence from the very first beat, yet it still appears to float freely, creating space for reflection and self-interrogation. What others call a "band", Von Spar see as a modular system. The creative community of Sebastian Blume, Jan Philipp Janzen, Christopher Marquez, and Phillip Tielsch is in a state of constant flux. Von Spar is an interface, providing access to rediscovery and fresh experience of, to all intents and purposes, the familiar. Under Pressure is their fifth album, not counting their homage to Can (recorded live with Stephen Malkmus). 15 years have passed since their debut Die Uneingeschränkte Freiheit Der Privaten Initiative (2004), five since Streetlife (2014). On closer examination, there is a chameleonesque quality to Von Spar's discography. Their records are the result of continuous metamorphosis, opening wormholes to post punk, krautrock and '80s art pop. The constants: rhythmic refinement and harmonic quantum leaps, swirling synthesizer arpeggios, backwards guitars with no hint of retrogradation. The eight songs on Under Pressure were recorded in Von Spar's Dumbo Studio in Cologne, with various guests from adding noteworthy contributions. As on Streetlife, the formative voice belongs to Chris A. Cummings aka Marker Starling. His distinctive falsetto graces over half of the songs, asking: "Is there a cure for this/Unhappiness, happiness?" On the opening track, Cummings is joined by Eiko Ishibashi (Kafka's Ibiki, Jim O'Rourke, Merzbow) in a Japanese dream sequence exploring where they might get to if the shackles of the flesh are cast off. Punk and reggae professor Vivien Goldman (The Flying Lizards) picks up the thread and liberates herself from the ghosts of the past on "Boyfriends (Dead Or Alive)". Lætitia Sadier (Stereolab) sings on the album's kraut-pop hit "Extend The Song" which could run and run for ever, powered by motoric energy: "If someone would ask me/Could I go on?" Less answers, more questions - this is the song's greatest leitmotif. It is left to low-fi maverick R. Stevie Moore to pose the question on "Falsetto Giuseppe" "Should I worry?" Of course! -Arno Raffeiner

Turmeric curcumin & black pepper
These capsules come in a freshness and safety sealed bottle. They’re pretty large, but the vegan cellulose capsules swallow easily with a little water. A serving is 3 capsules, You really smell the black pepper extract and turmeric when you open the bottle.
The suggested use is to take them 20-30 minutes before a meal.

This is a good one
I really like these for inflammation reduction. That means a more comfortable, more pain-free body. I feel less achy when using these and that helps me through my day. They don't need to be taken (by me anyway) every day. These generally keep the aches and pains beat back so I have more comfortable movement and feel the effects of getting older noticeably less. They just help me feel generally more healthy.

"Solid credentials and nice presentation"...
The product presents as a professional well made product. The site page could be improved a tad with details just to match up with the product received.
"FDA registered" is a requirement so it's not an over-and-beyond move. However, GMP certified and 3rd party lab tested are and are nice pluses.
Capsule size is MEDIUM.
MG per capsule is 600 MG or more based on the label which is pretty good. Black pepper is known to aid in absorption so you always want to see that with turmeric and some other supplements that benefit from its addition.
Made in the USA is great. Ingredients are sourced domestically and globally. It would be nice to know where they come from outside of the USA.
This is a very solid option for turmeric.

Add these if you like to keep things moving 😉
Size: 81 Count (Pack of 1)
The taste is good but not great lol I take iron and sometimes it makes me a bit constipated so adding these to my everyday keeps things moving. No side effects. Easy chewing sometimes they clump together in the bottle but a good shake gets them apart.
