Hah!! That's definitely a first for me!
Faust top 5LOL

How about 10?

Daddy Take The Banana! Tomorrow Is Sunday! - Take The Banana, ForeverHeartHeartHeart
Krautrock - Corroding acid being slushed down your eardrain pipe? Why thank you very much.
Faust Tapes side 1 (never thought of is as separate parts really) - Swooping down the rabbit-hole with everything from jitterbug blues to sawing sharp assaulting electronics and guitar screeches. 
Rainy Day - Dance the night away!
So Far - Ditto, in a slightly different manner.
Jennifer - Triple ditto, and thanks for the sweat!
A Bit Of A Pain - Just works for some inexplicable reason. Like brushing teeth.
Gigi Smile - Beautiful blue music. Deserves to be played in winter mornings where the darkness has a blue tone to it.
The Sad Skinhead - The music you play to librarians, when you're fed up by silence.
Meadow Meal - I've got a thing for water, rain and fluidity in music, and this one's got it in spades. Keeps me swimming.

They have songs?

Ha ha, just kidding.  Here's my favorites:

the "Stretch out Time" section of the Faust Tapes
the "Flashback Caruso" section of the Faust Tapes
It's a Rainy Day, Sunshine Girl
No Harm
Mamie is Blue

I love plenty of other moments, but those are the top 5.  On the post 1990 albums I enjoy a lot of it, but I don't know them by their track names as much.

In no particular order:

It's a Rainy Day, Sunshine Girl
Accroché à Tes Lèvres
Babylon
Picnic on a Frozen River, Deuxième Tableaux (Or "Giggy Smile" depending on if you have the release that labeled them properly or not; I don't)
C'est Com Com Compliqué

Probably my favourite krautrock band, no matter how much I f**king love Can.

edit: I seem to be the only person listing recent Faust tracks at all

You are. I have never heard any of the post-'70s albums, although the first time I had ever heard of them was in a gig review in RollingStone sometime in the mid-'90s. There are two different versions of the band now isn't there? That sorta makes things confusing.

Could you describe what the modern Faust sounds like compared to the earlier version?

There is a lot in common.  Maybe a little more electronic
