I'd say that Genesis started off as a kind of pop band, and methinks the band never left the pop sensibilities behind completely.

It's especially between Can's Future Days and Faust IV (my other choices would would be Larks' and Aladdin Sane). I'm going with Faust IV just because I listened to it most recently -- two days ago.

Genesis > KC 

Find it hard to vote for Hawkwind, because I don't like including live albums.

I've heard both the John Martin (ex-girlfriend) and Lou Reed but I don't really like either

That's a hard one between Can, Faust, Genesis, Hawkwind, and LTIA. I guess Faust will have the hardest time collecting votes here so I'll given them mine.
