NEU! '75

Amongst fans this is simply known as "Neu '75" or the "Black Album". This was really the 3rd album released by these German pioneers of electonic space prog rock NEU! and IMHO is a simply killer album worthy of major praise. Without a question you need to have this album in your collection and now thanks to the folks at Astralwerks we can enjoy this in audio re- mastered brightness. NEU! in 1975 was Michael Rother (guitars, piano, synths), Thomas Dinger, Hans Lampe and Klaus Dinger (organ, percussion and guitar). This classic space rock album was recorded in the famous Krautrock kitchen of Konrad Plank studios.

All 3 classic NEU albums shine in different yet connected light : where the first album is an adventure in minimalism, "Neu! '75" is more colorful and slightly more accessible although just as adventuras. NEU! were obsessed with sonic textures with this album dripping in crystalline images and frosted by deep tonal analogue synthesisers and pristine lead guitars. This is the perfect headphone experience album for those who love to still sit and get totally wrapped up in an album from start to finish. A masterpiece !
