Having just heard '75 for the first time ever (in full), I'm slightly in love and compelled to ask your opinion on the band's 2 most heralded works - the debut, and their 1975 record. Two krautrock gems that seemed to have stood the test of time; which do you prefer? For me, the latter has the edge as I find their first album a little tedious at times  As always, thanks for any feedback!!

75. Pre-Punk music  Even New Order is already there.

| The debut. I find both equally boring but I'm giving the edge to the first one for the fantastic "Negativland". |

I'm going with '75 here. Hard to believe they had already broken up at this point but re-united to record this album. What an influencial band! ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

| Not fair to vote - I don't have the S/T album, I once has Neu! 2 but I couldn't really dig it, maybe i never gave it a chance, but I thought their ideas were sparse this time around. I only have Neu! '75 and it's a gem. This one I really like, a lot. |

Couldn't get into either. Neu's a little too static and lifeless for me. ------------- "It just has none of the qualities of your work that I find interesting. Abandon [?] it." - Eno |

| NEU! '75 - Influential Krautrock of the highest order.......(at least, taking the early Kraftwerk idealism to the next level which pre-dates Punk elements and attitudes). True Prog.......... |

I have tried both of these albums, actually several times. But I always feel kind of an outsider, nothing moves me here. No votes. |
