Krautrock

I am a huge fan of krautrock. I know it has fans and I know that it's been very influential. Trouble is, i don't know really any other fans outside of record store employees, so i have very few people to talk to about it. Does Sup Forums like krautrock? Anyone want to shoot the shit about favorite albums and whatnot?

I like Neu. Funny this is, the first time I went to a record store, I got their s/t and the guy said he liked it. Maybe they're popular with that crowd.

Do Faust count? I also really like them

>communism

Ew, sorry my dude, but im outta here

>Do Faust count? I also really like them
nah
the band that coined the term krautrock definitely isnt krautrock my friend

Well, fuck. I couldn't remember.

>germany
>communism
Wot

there's a can thread almost everyday

I'm new here so I wouldn't know.

Your loss. I don't see what's wrong with Communists

of course they do. Did you see that documentary where they are using a broom and a cement mixer as instruments? that was fun.

The people who work at my local record stores are often big krautrock fans. idk why but I ain't complaining. Who can resist some 70s Tangerine Dream?

Also, CAN is one of my favorite bands.

you can reply to more than one post in a reply

keep it to one post please

sorry i can't internet properly

that's actually interesting, one of the record store clerks i've talked to said his favorite band is Can. That's what those sort of people like i guess

Who knows. Record store employees have esoteric taste

i should work at a record store

what is krautrock. how does it differ from any other kind of rock.

It's more of a scene than a genre

it was a musical movement in 70's Germany that became extremely important to experimental and underground music. similar to prog rock

You are just an all around fuck up huh Birdqueer

70s prog rock but from Germany

krautrock was approved by the patrician council a long time ago

I actually host a krautrock show at my colleges radio station!

What's it like working college radio?

It's a lot of fun. Only problem is my tastes differ from the other DJs a lot. Like my fav genres are noise, power electronics, and metal and hip hop. So I really have to try hard to like some of their music. A lot of it is just shitty twee-pop. But overall 8/10

communism was invented in germany, gov

what's more, east germany was under soviet administration for several decades, including the time when krautrock was relevant

hi kevin

What

embrce twee

Krautrock is boring pretentious garbage

Neu! and Can are very popular. I think anyone who's into music likes them or would at least be able to talk about them. Maybe you need more friends who are into music.

Can is way more popular than Neu

It's like prog rock but instead of taking influence from baroque music and jazz it has more in common with 20th century avant garde classical (Stockhausen, minimalism, etc)

Yeah but krautrock is from west germany you nigger
Ever heard of the Berlin wall

If you actually knew anything about east germany than you would know that all art was regulated by the government. all of the big krautrock bands came from non communist west germany, Can was from München.

well that's just, like, your opinion, man

Berlin School > Krautrock

>Does Sup Forums like krautrock?
Faust's s/t and the Can trilogy are literally Sup Forumscore
