   You know what’s really fucking odd? About two minutes into this video, I randomly started thinking of “We Will Fall” by The Stooges, then out of nowhere comes Iggy Pop. I about shit myself, lol.

   It has been so hard for me to watch this documentary on the computer without pausing and getting lost in a wiki page or other YT video on the subjects. AWE

    Conny Plank was a god. RIP. He produced so many great bands and records – and not just German bands.

    Anyone else uncomfortable with the term “krautrock”? I’m not even German and I feel leery about using it, it’s a wartime ethnic slur anyway you look at it.

    @godsaway0 second tire meaning that, in the cosmic scheme of things, they don’t seem all that special……….can and amon duul2 not only had more of a connection to rock, but can be redisovered on several levels, something bands like faust/cluster/popol/neu/dream/kraft didn’t seem capable of…….of course what i’m saying could be defined within’ general (and relatively recent) music history and many of these artists may have been far more pioneering than i’m giving them credit for..

    @posthumanhero

    second tier? maybe so. o’d consider agitation free or jane to be second tier. i do prefer CAN, but those flowing songs of Neu! are really wonderful.

    I love Faust, but at some level they’ve always been a put-on.
