Amon Düül II (or Amon Düül 2) is a German rock band. The group is generally considered to be one of the founders of the Krautrock scene and a seminal influence on its development. The band emerged from the radical West German commune scene of the late 1960s, with others in the same commune including some of the future founders of the Red Army Faction.
Amon Düü II's follow-up to their landmark double-LP set Tanz der Lemminge features a musical approach less experimental than previous recordings, but nonetheless distinctive and broad-reaching in its sphere of influences. The almost epic tack of the earlier works has been pared down here, but full-forward, guitar-heavy tracks like ". in Uruk," "Ballad of the Shimmering Sands," and "Kronwinkl 12" use disparate folk and hard rock elements cannily
Studio Album, released in 1972. This is a terribly underrated album. The problem with a band like Amon Duul II is that their sound and approach changed very radically as their career progressed, which means that you will have fans from all sides of the fence each harshly criticizing what they think to be the "bad albums" - that are actually awesome - which simply happened to have departed from their particular.
Carnival In Babylon might also do - for me, the album was a disappointment (formulaic and stale), but it might do as a reasonable first try. Whatever. Make your own choice. From today's perspective, there's hardly anything that shocking about Amon Düül II's debut album. Back in 1969, though, a title like Phallus Dei must have been pretty offensive.
