CHECKPOINT CHARLIE-KRAWALL IM SCHWEINSTALL, LP, 1981, GERMANY












Jeez...1981 wasn't exactly a banner year for Krautrock, but like fellow stalwarts from the Uli Trepte/Spacebox/L.S. Bearforce axis, these long lived hippy Polit-Rock militants (whose astonishing previous album Fruhling Der Kruppel from four years earler I shared just recently) refused to cease their mission or allow the tides of Neue Deutsche Welle tastes to impede their desire to kick up a flabbergasting acid rockin' art prog shitstorm to accompany their scathing political commentary, if anything further ramping up the hard burning frenzy heard on Krawall Im Schweinstall. Just...wow.

  5. know the story behind the swine? this symbolized FJS a rightwing politician for decades. He accused the band and obliged them to remove the inflatable pink swine from the stage cause it was Franz-Josef written on it....poor man felt offended.
    funny were the times.
    many thanks for the presentation on your fine blog.
