Very ahead of its time. Shame it's not very fun to listen to.
Sure, everyone wants to talk about how this is the start of techno but that's not why this album is good. Kraftwerk built a hypnotic, robotic environment that's a cold creepy place to get lost in. It's a prediction a the future we've only just recently entered where our souls have been lost to machines.
Seriously. I know this album is cited for the future techno music it inspired, but if you can honestly listen to this for more than 3 minutes, your spandex shorts are too tight!
Has anyone else noticed how creepy the Hall of Mirrors is? Yes, well, it's well creepy.
Only enjoyed the first track.
What's happening???
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
We now know where New Order found their inspiration.
This is straight persons 'trippy music'. The first realistic commercial attempt at "techno" before it became trendy in nightclubs. An excellent album to put on as you start you start your journey accross the Nullabor desert.
