The Song of the Nibelungs


German Oak - Nibelungenlied (1976)

Thought this might be a good follow-up to the Radio Bremen post. The heavier side of krautrock; fuzzy psych instrumentals with morose and at times goth like melodies, pretty fuckin' good stuff but to compare it to the self-titled album from '72 feels a bit like deciding which of your kids you love more so i won't bother cause they're both definitely worth having (the albums i mean, i wouldn't know about the kids). By the way 'Nibelung' or 'Niflung' was a race of dwarves in Germanic and Norse mythology.
