I can see how Germans could take Krautrock as derogatory....i'm Italian American and probably wouldn't appreciate the term "Wop-Rock" referring to Italian alternative music...

@fujivoo even Faust recorded one song called Krautrock, we all know that. I guess what happened to the "alternative rock" label didnt happened to "krautrock", cause all these german bands are too good and diverse that it makes it really dificult to banalize them into just one word and even harder to have new bands copying what they sound like and making "krautrock" just another musical industry repetitive style

@honeypower once music is labeled and packaged ...creativity becomes constricted

@fujivoo I always say the same thing, can't understand these people obsessed with putting things into boxes

when Nirvana, pearl Jam etc. became more popular in the late 80's early 90's, the industry began marketing new acts as "alternative, but all of a sudden, they all had to sound and look "alternative" according to the music industry record executives version of safe bland version of alternative thus killing the true meaning of the word..so when really diffierent sounding pop bands and rock bands rolled around, they didn't fit into that mold...all of a sudden..goodbye true creativity
but once you start labelling, you expect it to sound a certain way all the time, sometimes the artist won't want to change their style...look what happened with the "Alternative" label, once it became a marketing term, everybody expected "Alternative" rock to have a certain sound, thus killing the meaning of the word until all the so called "Alternative" bands look and sound the same, it is true though, we'll never get away from labelling...

I don't thnk about it too much to be honest. I mean I know many people call this Krautrock but I don't exactly know what that is.. seems like a catch all phrase for a lot of different styles (e.g. Can/TD/Amon Duul II all sound totally different). but at least it gets people listening to a lot of different styles... so I think calling this krautrock is ok as it gets people here in the first place... otherwise how would they find it? Accidentally perhaps... at least it speeds up the process.. ;-)

Why must we always put labels on music....just listen and either you like it or you don't...personally i like this whatever you wanna call it...just my opinion

unfortunately 'labels' are part of the process... otherwise how would people find the music... I daresay many people found this using the label krautrock.. even though its not particularly in that vein...
