When we hear music, we don’t always know where the foundation lies. Krautrock is at the foundation of a lot of music we like. For instance, if you asked many musicians who create black metal, positive punk (goth), space rock, or doom metal, many of them would cite Krautrock as a major influence on them. On a personal level, I think this type of music is the shit; bands like Neu and Can are awesome. Here is a killer documentary that the BBC made about the birth of Krautrock. Enjoy this cool CVLT Nation documentary special.
