Objectively, krautrock isn't for everyone. If it was you probably wouldn't like it as much. That being said, I love the track. Does anyone else get a feeling that RATM maybe took a little for their track 'wake up'?
@Toobaluba Who gives a flying f about the video? Did it really "earn" those dislikes because of the video itself? Or are those some pedantic jerks who enjoy nothing but serious classical music or jazz?
The movement had been around for some time, including the woman who created the sound track for Doctor Who, who was Huge in creating electronic music before many thought of it. If you'd like to look her up, her name is Delia Derbyshire, there are quite a few videos here on YT.
I'm listening to this at this moment and I still can't understand why people keep saying Joy Division was the first postpunk band...
First Postpunk bands clearly sound like this song but with 5 or 6 years of delay, even it's possible to find different postpunk styles here, for example from 0:40 to 4:05 or from 4:20 to 4:55 (this last part has some of the transitions from punk to postpunk in my opinion)...
it's hard to believe but this band is really underrated :(
@antonioACR14:20 to 4:55 sounds a bit like Joy Division's "no love lost"... but Neu! is much older than most punk bands, it's hard to label them as postpunk (maybe prepunk...)
@MisterSpinalzo Actually, I've been trying to find out (on my own) the roots of postpunk musically speaking and it's hard to decide what's postpunk and what's not, but in my opinion there's a constant at almost every postpunk song: the way guitar and bass are used. It's hard to explain because I'm not musician, but it's clear if you listen for example to the great postpunk band PIL and his song "Public Image" from 1978, and compare it to Negativland here from 8:00 forward.
@antonioACR1 One of the typical dynamics in post-punk, the way it differed from a lot of rock music before it, was that the bass would carry the melody as well as driving the song forward, freeing the guitarist to explore space, create ambient sound, atonal noise, experiment.
thanks! I think your comment is the most useful I've ever received :D
I'm still looking for the "first" postpunk song after punk rock explosion, so I realized soon that I had to go back to 1977, but in this year the line between punk rock and postpunk is not very clear
of this year I usually told myself "damn, I feel like this is postpunk, but I don't know why" lol, but after reading your comment I could clarify those doubts, probably this song is a good example of what you say, here on youtube watch?v=BufsrEvVWYE
@MisterSpinalzo I mean, the example before is pretty clear in my opinion, it's clear how NEU developed postpunks sounds even before than punk music. Obviously I know that postpunk is called so because it comes from punk rock music, but even postpunk evolved from a "fast and hard" sound to something "slower", maybe more "atmospheric", consider these songs: Orgasm Addict (1977) by The Buzzcocks, Cigarettes (1978) by PragVEC, Stories for Boys (1979) by U2 and Euthenics (1981) by Modern Eon
@MisterSpinalzo You'll notice how the sound is getting slower, even the last one has almost nothing to do with punk rock, so in this sense I don't see any problem if people consider Negativland as a postpunk song, but as I said, I mean this just musically speaking, and it's just my opinion.
Dieses Stück ist Hammer! Es zeigt inwiefern die deutsche Krautrock einen hervorragenden Beitrag zur Entwicklung der modernen Rockmusik geleistet hat. Die Engländer, die die Bezeichnung: "Krautrock" erfunden haben um diese Art von Musik abzuwerten, haben aber davon viel gelernt. Siehe u.a. David Bowie, Brian Eno, Gary Numan und Thom Yorke...
this song will always have a special place in my brain.
