Faust is one of the earliest and most raw Krautrock representatives , Current German pilot rock emerged in the late 60's.
In the 60 wave occurs Anglo / American pop music, rock, and then the boom progressive (Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd) who literally invaded the rest of the countries of Europe and large hegemonized as musical taste, making the groups German, French, Italian, etc. they wanted to be 'successful' had to incorporate this way of making music (sometimes even singing in English). It is in this context that many groups seeking a break with this kind of official aesthetic of 'music industry', and currents of each country. So is emerging in France as Zeuhl (Magma as its main exponent), or in Germany Krautrock (Kraftwerk, Popol Vuh), and who we are dealing with: Faust.
Formed in 1971, recorded 4 albums, of which the same name that is presented here first, and it outlines what will be the signature style of this band. Unlike other groups, Faust takes his music to extremes at times insane experimentation, creating structures seemingly disjointed, chaotic, using synthesizers to create ambient passages, and samples with which they approach musique concrète composers and Schaeffer , Varèse and Pierre Henry. Add to this the dissonant riffs and distorted guitar and sax, the quiet acoustic passages and sometimes mysterious, surreal sense of humor and absurdity (to Frank Zappa and Henry Cow). Musicians
