Will check The Nazgul. Had a listen to a couple of Pyramid compilations and didn't think too much of them at the time.

Yuk
 
I'm not sure if you have heard any of these but they could be to you liking and are of the harder to find spieces.  
 
- Metabolismus
- Zweistien
- Cozmic Corridors 
- Cosmic Eye  
- Ibliss
- Seesselberg (a synth excursion)
 
I know well of Cozmic Corridor Yukorin, but would you have to own any records from these bands. I would be very interested if you do. They all span from the infamous Pyramid label.  
 
Pyramid 
The Nazgul 
Temple

Have you ever heard of a fairly new English band : Electric Orange? Their CD Cyberdelic is all Krautrock influenced. Very Good.

Certain bands just seem to plop into the Krautrock soup. Be they spacerock, minimal, folk, avant-garde or crutons.

OK, one more!
I was thinking of creating a thread about krautrock myself, so Yukorin saved me a lot of trouble Wink
 
please tell me all the aspects of Krautrock: (and please ignore my signature for the time being!Wink)
- The very first band I recognised as Krautrock was Can (two years ago it was progarchives' sample kraut band... I know tangerine dream before, but I hadn't realised it was krautrock then...) so I expected Krautrock to be in this band's style (let me tell you the albums I first heard: Ege Bamyasi, Peel Sessions and Anthology)
- After getting used to Can, I searched for other similar bands and bumped into Ash Ra Tempel (only with Schwingungen then) and Amon Düül II (yeti)... The bands might have been included in Space Rock, as well...
- Guru Guru has been a surprise, because I thought it to be a jazz-rock band! (I had only heard Guru Guru live by then)
After getting acquainted with other jazzy kraut bands (Embryo, Kraan...) I understood that thare had been a jazzy side of Krautrock...
 
- most of Kraut is understood to be a kind of German spacerock... do you think it's true ??? (I personally don't, because few of, say, Can's output is spacy)
 
- not to mention the "motorik" beat featured by NEU!, and afterwards Harmonia...
 
- coming back to early kraut: many greats are not considered krautrock because they shifted their style in time... Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, even Klaus Shulze...
 
- and some are rather classified as symphonic: Wallenstein, Grobschnitt (this was once in kraut in PA) Jane (this is art-rock), Sahara etc.
 
are these also Krautrock, or what?
 
and more importantly, what makes Krautrock Krautrock? (apart from being German, btw, I think - and some people agree - some swiss bands are also Kraut: Brainticket, Krokodil, anyone?)
 
tell me your opinions!
Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret:
Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!)
