I was watching a documentary the other night about Tangerine Dream. I always loved them but didn't know much about them, except they did soundtracks. They were German.

But back to Krautrock; how about some classic heavy metal from 1972, sounding rather like a German Black Sabbath (especially the riffing from 2:07):

I still haven't liked anything more than Kraftwerk, I don't know why. I have tried various other groups but nothing else has clicked.

Just treated myself to tickets and cheap flight with sleazyJet to see veteran Krautrockers Guru Guru in Hamburg on 13th September.
Can't wait!
Wife doesn't seem too grumpy about losing me for 3 days!

Really sad to hear of the death of pioneering keyboard (and drums) genius Klaus Schulze.
His work with Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream and solo efforts were all magnificent.
Just check out his blistering drumming on Freak n' Roll:

Only just found out that Guru Guru - my 2nd favourite Krautrock band after Ash Ra Tempel, did a comparatively recent studio album (2018).
Unfortunately can't seem to find it on vinyl, but have just ordered the CD of "Rotate" from Amazon.

Re: Krautrock
Love the Rammstein industrial guitar sound and have most of their albums, only seen a cover band of these live called Rammlied.

Originally posted by zabadak View PostI like several artists of this genre (I prefer the term Kosmische Musik), e.g. Can, Neu, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Amon Duul II. Also, the Swiss band Yello could be seen as late-period KM although, obvs, not German, so they don't really qualify...
Will have to check out Yello.
For some more recent German rock, which blends heavy metal with electronic, I recommend the bizarrely-named We Butter The Bread With Butter.
Try this one:

Re: Krautrock
Yes I loved Krautrock also. As with many other '70's sounds' Krautrock still has a place in this world. Like you I liked Sweet (not Slade) and Status Quo and as my knowledge grew so did my interest in all things Prog Rock, including Krautrock. I loved the music of Amun Duul (can't be bothered to put the unlauts in), Nektar and Neu!.
Rammstein are a metal band from Germany. They aren't part of 'Krautrock', which I'm pretty Cartimand meant as a genre of progressive music.
For a proper definition go here :

Re: Krautrock
Anybody else heard of Rammstein? German industrial metal band which started in the late 90s, they sing in the German language which suits the music perfectly. They are probably as famous for the outrageous stage shows as much as there music which makes for a very entertaining night out ...catch em if you can !!
