Can, Goddammit

sonikold · 04.16.2006, 01:48 AM

haven't heard anyone on here talk about this band. i think they are catching up to SY as one of my favorite bands. besides having the best drummer of any krautrock, the rest of the musicians are super tight and groove. plus damo's an awesome singer. who else loves this band?

oh, and i can put up some rare/live stuff if there's any demand for it...

krastian · 04.16.2006, 01:56 AM

I think there are some pretty big Can fans on here.

Onani Nic · 04.16.2006, 05:29 AM

I love Can although i don't have enough of their stuff, too many good bands not enough money.

Tago Mago is one of my favourite albums ever.

Monster Movie is also great but doesn't feature Damo on vocals.

johnnywinternoshow · 04.16.2006, 06:14 AM

TAAAAAAAAAAAAGOOOOOOOOOO MAAAAAAAAAAGOOOOOOOOO!

I love that album, it's fucking great in a dark room with no distractions, it's also fantastic on mushrooms, me and my girlfriend were writing down all sorts of shit listening to peking-o trying to decipher what damo was saying, 'papa wouldn't eat' I think we decided on in the end.

The first time I heard that jibberish freakout on that song I knew this band was for me.

Future days is a good album too, more chilled though. I have a malcolm mooney album but it wasn't anywhere near as interesting as the damo suzuki stuff

A Thousand Threads · 04.16.2006, 08:43 AM

what to say,

one of the most important bands ever

it´s kind of strange, am i the only one who doesn´t like TAgo Mago that much?
I prefer Monster Movie and (damn, i cant remember the correct name) Edges Byem ?!!? Something like that
and Delay 19??
fuck, i suck in remembering names

well, CAN is one of my favourite bands ever,
also the very first sessions are pretty sweet

xpresswaytoyrskull · 04.16.2006, 10:05 AM

Check out their DVD for amazing live performances. Malcolm Mooney has some stuff out on Unfortunate Miracle Records. Damon Suzuki just put out a new album of live material I believe.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 04.16.2006, 10:38 AM

Damo Suzuki with Cul De Sac is pretty good.

The only Damo Suzuki lyric I have ever made out is "I'm so green"

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 04.16.2006, 10:44 AM

I picked up monster movie used a couple of years ago, and never followed it up with anything. I really dug it though.

sonikold · 04.16.2006, 11:34 AM

i always forget damo doesn't sing on monster movie because a lot of it sounds just like him. i really like future days, ege bamyasi & TM. i love acidhead krauts shouting broken english, but damo is totally sweeter than all of them.

anyone want a live '71 show? it's pretty killer.

i'd like that show. yeah, they're great. monster movie has malcolm mooney singing on it...anyone remember that band the mooney suzuki? they have to get their name from that. wierd story about malcolm mooney is that he left the band after having a mental breakdown mid performance, stuck screaming "UPSTAIRS, DOWNSTAIRS". ha.

Everyneurotic · 04.16.2006, 11:57 AM

yes yes!!!

i'd like a '71 show!!!

The 97th Hammer · 04.16.2006, 12:06 PM

Tago Mago is one of my fave albums ever. I've had a copy for nearly five years and it's yet to get old. I just wish I'd nabbed a copy of the vinyl re-issue when I could.

hey alex · 04.16.2006, 01:48 PM

thanks sonikold

I'm easing into can... Like i have tago mago which I do agree kicks ass on shrooms (so does murray street). I love the mushroom song, "i was born, when I was dead, i was born, mushroomhead.' ace. Other than tago mago I've heard future days once and wanna hear ege bemylist (or wahtever)/ I'd like to get them on LP, but their like 25$ a pop for a single disc, tis bogus.

nomadicfollower · 04.16.2006, 01:53 PM

Ege Bamyasi is genius.
Father Cannot Yell is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Tago Mago is pretty good, but not my favorite.
I have Future Days but I haven't listened to it enough to really decide what I think about it.

Glice · 04.17.2006, 02:13 PM

Can are a fantastic band who I like a lot and are good and I like them and it is a shame that one of them died but then they haven't realy been together for a while and Halleluwah is one of my favourite drum solos and they are good and I like them and they are good. Can, that is. Yes.

Kallisti23chaos · 04.17.2006, 04:29 PM

I just got the Live 71 show downloaded, but i keep having trouble with the rarities. I got 5 songs from the show. If you could please use yousendit maybe it would work out better for me, if there is no trouble for you.
I would LOVE to have any rare CAN stuff.
Thanx again for the live 71 show. that was a real score for me.
*b*

AllHandsOnTheBigOne · 04.18.2006, 12:35 PM

I love Tago Mago. And Ege Bamyasi is becoming one of my favorites. It's like the perfect mix of Hendrix, Miles, and Stockhausen. Sort of.

Neongod · 04.18.2006, 03:12 PM

Radiohead did a great cover of The Thief on the last tour. That's about all I've heard (I checked out the original). Can they be compared to any other groups to give me an idea?
