Choose your three favourite bands or authors - and please write your fave albums of your choices.


BUT

If you can, as third choose the most underrated band/author (in your opinion).

I love music by all almost all of these. I went with Can and Dom but could have gone with any number of others. As my third, the underrated choice, meaning held in too low esteem (add my imo to the following), I went with Brave New World. The reason being that while the epic "The End" is the highlight of its album Impressions on Reading Aldous Huxley, I have come across others who consider that to be the only thing of note and significant worth on it. "The End" is fantastic, but I love the whole album. Also about "The End" I have heard someone express that they're only interested in The Doors' "The End" and as for Brave New World, someone wanted it to be about Iron Maiden instead.

Voted for Neu! Mostly because it's one of the very few "original" Krautrock formations that did not have cringeworthy lyrics :v

Many great bands/artists here. I voted for Amon Duul II, but I would be happy if any of them wins.

Can, Amon Düül II, and Faust. Corresponding favorite albums would be Tago Mago, Wolf City, and Faust IV. The contents of this post are xanthan gum-free.

What I can tell here is that I'm fond / very fond of these albums:

Can - Tago Mago, Ege Bamyasi, Future Days
Amon Düül II - Yeti, Wolf City
Ash Ra Tempel - s/t
Faust - IV
Neu! - s/t
Gila - s/t
Agitation Free - Malesch
Guru Guru - Hinter
                      quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond
