Definitely Phallus Dei for me. It has a sort of an inexplicable magic to me that no other album repeats. Yeti is another favorite.
Categories strain, crack and sometimes break, under their burden - step out of the space provided.

Impossible poll. I could go with either Phallus, Yeti or Thanz.

Whoa, looking at these 5 INCREDIBLE albums - what a very very very difficult choice to make.......
It's a toss up between, well, all 5. Sorry Phallus Yeti Babylon City, but Tanz it must be......

a tough one. I will go with "Tanz der Lemminge" this time, but "Wolf City", Phallus Dei" and "Yeti" are great as well

Wolf City has always been my #1 Düül, with Phallus Dei a close second. Dig Yeti and Tanz too, but Carnival in Babylon has always seemed like a clunker to me.

Same here. Carnival is quite charming actually; it'd probably get more love if it wasn't surrounded by all these other monster albums (but then who'd have discovered it?).

I love all of these records, big time! I wouldn't want to chose between Yeti, Tanz and Wolf City though - all of which I consider masterpieces. 
The telepathic ways of Yeti versus the schizophrenic genius of Tanz or maybe just go for the stellar songwriting (and incorporation of the two formerly mentioned trades) of Wolf City? Nahh I literally have no idea which one to vote forWacko
I consider that a good thing.

Not surprised CIB has no votes. Good album but the weakest of the five.
