"My girlfriend walked in on me cheating last night. Not sure why she was so upset, since we're in an open relationship.

Maybe it was because it was with my daughter.

Maybe it's because Planned Parenthood let me take her home."

Not exactly full on Kraut, but, the new maserati has a ton of kraut influence. Give it a go. It is so so so good.

Also, my group Brujas del Sol just released a Motorik kosmiche jam titled "starquake". Check it out.

Surprised to see Föllakzoid haven't popped up on here yet. They're a current Chilean band. Young dudes, pretty much as krauty as it gets in terms of new groups I can think of.

This song is a straight up Neu homage--it's a good entry point with them though. Other stuff gets less derivative.

^ Nice, Chank. Love me some Ash Ra Tempel.
Been digging this compilation a lot lately. Sort of pre-Krautrock Kraut rock, if you know what I mean.



Well worth tracking down.

[Chankgeez]

Nice, Horsey, thanks, I'll have to track some of that stuff down.

Yeah, Krautrock's a pretty difficult genre to pin down. Lots of different music tends to fall under its banner (and I like a lot of it).

EDIT: I have heard that comp before. Somebody uploaded the full album to YouTube, but currently there's a copyright claim on it. So, the audio track's been muted.
