| Space rock, but just because i can't get into kraut rock, space is more accesible, maybe in a moth i will answer kraut, but right now space. |

Krautrock... Can and Amon Duul II are great. I need some Neu though, then the others. ------------- "The rock and roll business is pretty absurd, but the world of serious music is much worse." - Zappa |

Tough call.
Krautrock tends to be more wild and upredictable - when it's good it's fantastic. Space rock can also be wild and unpredictable... and some Krautrock is space rock (e.g. Eloy). If I had to choose between, say Amon Duul II and Hawkwind, I'd probably choose Hawkwind - but I have a particular soft spot for the more obscure Kraut bands that recorded on a budget, like Necronomicon, Erlkoenig and Kaputter Hamster. I'm not so keen on the major players like Guru Guru. ------------- The important thing is not to stop questioning. |

My favorite krautrock band is Can. Followed by Tangerine Dream, Amon Düül II, Neu and Cluster. All these bands has some degree of spacerock in its music. ------------- Over land and under ashes In the sunlight, see - it flashes Find a fly and eat his eye But don't believe in me Don't believe in me Don't believe in me |

You forgot to say 'why?'
I'm more into Spacerock, because as far as I'm familiar with the Krautrock principle, it is less coherent than most of the space rock stuff I listen to ------------- Interested in my reviews?

I love both and don't prefer one over the other. And the borders are
not as strict as one might think, since there have been exchanges of
musicians to and fro. For example members of the Ozric Tentacles,
Hawkwind and Van der Graaf Generator played on albums of the British
Amon Düül. Or Cluster working with Brian Eno.

Spacerock like Hawkwind and Pink Floyd....I prefer this genre 'cause is nearer at the sound of psychedelic rock that I love so much... ------------- [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5f/Genesis_Group.jpg" border"> |

Krautrock can be spacerock, but any spacerock out of Germany isn't krautrock? 
I can decide, so I wont vote.

It's too hard for me to choose. Space rock is more easy to know - probably for each prog music fan. Krautrock is rather difficult to understand, but if you understand, you'll say: "It's great!" Draw. |

Spacerock is more cosmic, while Kraut is more mystical. Space vs Earth's Nature Sorry, I just think space is the greatest thing in the universe  |

I love both equally, but I voted for Krautrock. What about the bands that fit both?? Like... Ash Ra Temple early Tangerine Dream Cosmic Jokers Eloy What do we call these bands? Spacey Krautrock? Krautspace? Spacekraut? The Space Over Germany? |
