CAN

"Halleluwah" from the album TAGO MAGO (UAS 29211/12)

(Burchardt): That must have been the Can: Jackie Liebezeit. This continuous drumming is a stylistic element of Can. But I find it almost unbearable. It sounds tormented and agonizing, as if drops of water constantly fall on your head. But the sounds in the background were good. The short piano part, for example, is a very beautiful passage. In any case they have their own style.

(Hofmann): The sounds in the background are very sensitive, the singer is also very good, but the drums ruin everything. It's simply an accompanying act of a musician, where I have the feeling that he is using pressure to force himself. That restricts me and keeps me from listening to the sounds in the background freely.
