Not my favorite Eloy album or track but I could never listen to a complete Faust song...so Eloy it is.

I have 2 Faust LP's, and I like them A LOT. I have around 16 Eloy LP's, and I love most of them LOTS MORE.

Eloy. I don't like Krautrock

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Eloy not only has geographical ties with the Krautrock scene, being German, but I hear a lot of what I think of as a Krautrock-sound in music by it. In sites that multitag such as discogs and rateyourmusic, Krautrock is used as a descriptor for various Eloy albums. There is plenty of variety in Krautrock anyway.

Anyway, I like both Faust and Eloy, but am voting Faust based on Faust IV in particular (the album by Faust I'm most into at the moment).

I know I would enjoyed Eloy if it wasn't for the nasal, unmelodic vocals (Inside is nice though) that ruins a lot of appealing playing, soundscapes, atmospheres and compositions. 

Faust for me. So Far is my favorite.

^ That's what I was thinking - the accented vocals of Jean-Herve Peron is harder on the ears than Bornemann. I never found Bornemann to sound anywhere near iffy.....

Bornemann has one of the most annoying vocal in prog - or music. Maybe its more weak melodies than unmelodic. 

I usually don't mind accented vocals though. Jean-Herve Peron voice isn't nasal and fits Faust's music perfectly - which isn't as melody-based as Eloy.

[DELETED] I was an uneducated idiot back then and couldn't appreciate the genius of Faust musicians. I would have voted Faust.

I've become somewhat more critical with my teenage favourites Eloy over the years, but Faust never really did it for me, so still Eloy.

Funny, I love Krautrock, but years ago I bought Faust IV and I didn't go for it. I got rid of it. I do have the debut (clear vinyl, X-Ray PVC sleeve) of which side 1 is brilliant, side 2 more hard going, and You Know FaUSt, a more recent release, which is consistently excellent. But I'm still not fully sold on these guys.

Faust is just great, I really think itīs so great they just keep on going do their extraordinary weird albums! At the moment I just canīt remember any other band, that started so experimental and are still as experimental or even more!
