In fact it sounds like Kraftwerk without beats and singing.

Fun House/ Raw Power, VU&N, WL/WH, Sgt. Pepper, etc. But this is in the top 5 for sure.


those first three seem influential on a rather narrow sort of music.

in regards to finluence, what about Kind Of Blue? or Elvis Presley?

Kraftwerk are one of those bands that despite their innovations can kind of unfairly overshadow their contemporaries. Klaus Shulze and Cluster (Sowiesoso is really overlooked) released equally exploratory albums in their own ways, not to mention that most of this music was the slow bubbling of modern classical ideas from the 50's into a popular context....

Nonetheless I love this album. Europe Endless is one of my favourite songs. Kraftwerk deserve some credit for being able to write some damn good melodies when the feeling took them.

What is finluence? Is it a sado-masochistic activity involving you and Pinkie Pie doing various things?

Kraftwerk aren't my cup of tea. I gave this a 70/100, fully understanding it's 'influence'.

And for the record, Chuck Berry is the most influential musician ever. Velvet Underground are the most influential band.

Nah, The Beatles have been influential on much more bands.
