Add in Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream, Mythos, Sand, La Dusseldorf, Kraan, Kraftwerk, Embryo, Klaus Schulze, Walter Wegmüller, KMFDM, A.R & Machines, Gila and Floh De Cologne, and you pretty much have all the reasons why Germany is my favourite country for music after The UK and US. |

Nobody else mentioned all the space-rock thats blowing up in Germany still. Well, the whole western/northern Europe.
Well, it was alluded to. Electric Orange is a close relative. Dave Schmidt is my favorite, he's got a few groups/projects: Sula Bassana Electric Moon I know there are others, but I'm brain farting. |

Huge Cluster fan - you also can't go wrong with any of the myriad solo albums from Roedelius and Moebius.
Also - Cobra Killer - Two hot German girls and a bank of samplers, making some wonderfully twisted pop music. One of my all time favorites. Show me your ruler!!! |

My favorite German band is Tele. They experiment with a lot of sounds, mostly rock, pop and a little bit of 1930s saloon-cabaret style for good measure. And they've done a little funk and some Latin-inspired stuff as well.
Otherwise, Wir Sind Helden's first three LPs are solid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiqtB...FEC31F761AA594

^ I like this. Very nice.
My current favorite German group, but only because of the following song I love, is... Get Well Soon (Konstantin Gropper) - "Angry Young Men" Get Well Soon - Angry Young Man (Official Video) - YouTube

* Die Toten Hosen: Nichts bleibt für die Ewigkeit ("Nothing Remains for Eternity", 1995).
(translation from here) ♫ "Du merkst nicht, wie die Tage vergehn, ................................ You don't see how the days pass;
auch wenn es so scheint, sie bleiben nicht stehn. ................................ even if it seems so, they don't stop. Sie tropfen stetig vor sich hin, ................................ They drop on and on wie ein Wasserhahn, der undicht ist. ................................ like a leaky tap. Wenn du nachts hellwach in deinem Bett liegst, ................................ When you lie wide-awake at night in your bed, hörst du, wie es leise tickt. ................................ you hear how it silently ticks. Es ist 'ne Uhr in dir, sie läuft nur für dich, ................................ It's a clock inside of you, it runs only for you, sie erinnert dich dran, wie spät es ist. ................................ it reminds you how late it is. Jeden Tag stirbt ein Teil von dir, ................................ Every day a part of you dies, jeden Tag schwindet deine Zeit, ................................ every day your time recedes, jeden Tag ein Tag, den du verlierst, ................................ every day a day which you lose, nichts bleibt für die Ewigkeit. ................................ nothing remains for the eternity. Jeder Atemzug kostet dich Sekunden, ................................ Every breath takes you seconds; wieviel Minuten kriegst du für dein Geld? ................................ how many minutes do you get for your money? Los, wir schenken uns gegenseitig ein paar Stunden, ................................ Come on, we'll give each other a couple of hours, schmeißen Jahre von uns weg. ................................ throw the years away from us. Von gestern und für morgen leben, ................................ Live from yesterday and for tomorrow, niemals für das Hier und Jetzt. ................................ never for here and now. Du merkst, während du an deinen Plänen sitzt, ................................ You realize, while you are sitting at your plans, wie das Leben an dir vorüberzieht. ................................ how life passes you by. Jeden Tag stirbt ein Teil von dir, ................................ Every day a part of you dies, jeden Tag schwindet deine Zeit, ................................ every day your time recedes, jeden Tag ein Tag, den du verlierst, ................................ every day a day which you lose, nichts bleibt für die Ewigkeit. ................................ nothing remains for the eternity. (rep. x3)." ♫
