I'm not sure if the first track, Krautrock, is a joke about Faust's categorization within the genre, but it sure does sound like pure krautrock to these ears. A massive, hypnotic instrumental psychedelic rock jam session if their ever was one, Krautrock is the album's best track and it's practically become an icon of what the genre could and should sound like! The second track, The Sad Skinhead, is an odd and completely different tune with it's upbeat ska rhythms. I'm not a huge fan of this tune, but fear not, Faust immediately shift back into their psychedelic gear with Jennifer. The song is beautiful and meditative until about four minutes into the song when things start getting out-of-control. The incredibly beautiful Läuft... Heisst Das Es Läuft Oder Es Kommt Bald... Läuft is another highlight and one of my favorite Faust tracks ever. This expanded edition features a few extra tracks and many alternative versions to some classics. A must! |
