If you were familiar with Kraftwerk prior to their universal "props" during the techno age, you may be aware that most press coverage states that the only good Kraftwerk album was "Autobahn". I had read that for most of my life and twenty five years of press stated that. But I assure you, corporate-controlled media never knows what its talking about and it will say what it wants to to further their agenda no matter how diabolical or misdirected. What their agenda is exactly was always just beyond me! I have three Kraftwerk albums, have heard several others and do know this - the media is wrong! This album is actually better than Autobahn by a few degrees. That's entirely subjective but I feel this one has the overall advantage of more flavor. I love the writing on this album. Now don't get me wrong, I first heard Autobahn in 1975 when I was three years old, it will always hold a place in my heart, but this album is a class act. Do give it a listen. It is excellent!
