    I love this album. Worth it just for "Rheinita" alone... but a few of the other tracks give me like "krautrock Abba" or something, which honestly I think is brilliant.

      Their debut far exceeds their second album in of a fully cast album. But then on the other hand you have their arguably best, the beautiful "Rheinita" on this. And "Geld". And "White Overalls" if you're in to the heavier side of krautrock. They did grow as a band. But in that process a bit of the original naïvity died. The difficult second album. Includes new high points and ideas. And then some fillers.

        Da hat der Dinger sich ja ein Ding geleistet.
        Für mich ist das musikalisch Müll. Und vom Klang, der Abmischung? Klingt wie eine Schülerband!
        Eingespielt mit einer unvariierten Eintsellung, da hatte wohl einer voll die Lampe an!
        Absoluter Mist. Was ja auch der Name schon nahelegt.

          I prefer their first album more, but this is a similar classic as LD Numar Einz War :)
