Algarnas Tradgard:Delayed(recorded in 1974 but only released in 2001)utterly stoned psychedelic madness.Their first one from1972,entitled Framtiden ar ett svavande skepp,forankrat i forntiden is equally good.This band reminds me of Amon Duul 2 or Ash Ra Tempel at their best.

You guys and gals are gems.
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

I don't know if I've already mentioned Yugoslavian band 'Igra Staklenih Perli'. They fuse Can, Hawkwind and Pink Floyd very well.

I'm a fan of Hypnos 69...can't say they sound a lot like Hawkwind but they are psychy space rock with a retro sound and some other prog styles mixed in and they are very good.

I've listened to a few AMT albums but found them inaccessible. Haven't heard any AMGG yet, though.
 
I did like Koenjihyakkei's "Angherr Shisspa" very much. Maybe the OP would find this album to their liking. Link: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=9410
 
Thumbs Up

"messy, psychedelic and energetic sound "....hmmmm. Perhaps Acid Mother's Temple would be something you might like http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=2572

and Acid Mother Guru Guru:

Psychedelic Moonsterjam would be another alternative. listen to this:



with 2 members of the first Guru Guru line-up (Mani Neumeier and Ax Genrich) this should not come as a surprise.
unfortunately the uploading program separated the "tracks" which originally flow into each other since this is a live album

The Mystical might also want to listen to Tangerine Dream's first LP: It's a completely different thing than the electronic ambient they'd pioneer soon after, instead being a very wild and noisy guitar-based record with lots of drawn-out improv sections plus bizarre twists and turns in the composition. Kinda reminds me of a cross between the Ash Ra Tempel S/T (no coincidence with Schulze on drums) and the everything-but-the-kitchen-sink mentality of Amon Düül II's Phallus Dei.

This thread reminds me of when I heard Hawkwind described as the most German-sounding prog/psych band to ever come out of the UK. Can't remember where or when, or who said that for that matter.
You are a hundred percent correct. I have been collecting and listening to the artists you've mentioned over 30 years and I agree with you totally. Also....I find the music, the artists, and the time period fascinating.

"Hawk Meets Penguin" by the British Amon Düül is another recommendation

Sounds like you want to explore the Krautrock bands Amon Duul II, CAN, & Ashra Ra Tempel
