Artist Faust

  • Faust, back in the day

Faust is one the main bands behind the '60s-'70s movement known as krautrock, which wasn't so much a movement as a set of experimental ideals put into action. Can did the psychedelic jams, Neu leaned into the motorik charges, and Faust favored a special kind of all-over-the-place approach that touched on everything from cut-up tape collages to mantric moans to straight-up rock songs.
