Neu! - "Hallogallo" (1972)

SMALL OBSERVATION:
Jam bands: all you need is one chord, no solos, and a good arrangement. Suddenly, 10 minutes feels like 3. See how they did that there?

BIG IDEA:
This music is Futurism at its finest. On a much deeper level, it's fascinating how Germany and Japan, having lost WWII and without a recent past to be proud of, raced dramatically toward the future and more or less invented the 21st century. They had no other choice, really.

PETTY QUIBBLE:
Billy Corgan stole the main guitar riff and reused it in the intro to Cherub Rock.
