Various - Heavy Kraut!: Teil 2 - HEAVY KRAUT! -Wie der Hardrock nach Deutschland kam 1977 - 1983 (2-CD)

2-CD (Digisleeve) with 96 page booklet, 28 tracks. Total playing time approx. 123 min.

PLEASE, NOTE: liner notes in German

The second and final part of the CD documentary from Bear Family Records® describing the transfusion of beat and rock in 1960s Germany into hard rock and heavy metal covers the stage from 1977 to 1983.
On two double CDs, each with a booklet of 96 pages containing biographies of all the musicians and the corresponding illustrations, Frank Schäfer, one of the acknowledged heavy metal experts, outlines the rocky road to the emergence of an independent hard rock alternative in this country.
Among the many unjustly forgotten protagonists and pioneers of this exciting era are Straight Shooter, Faithful Breath, Bastard, Beast, Rampage, Bullet, Breslau, Viva and Accept.
'Heavy Kraut! Part 2' chronologically follows the short but consistent path to deafness.

When people talk about German heavy metal, they usually refer to the early eighties, yet the story begins a decade earlier. The seventies were also a gold-rush age for heavy guitars from Germany.

Whereas 'Heavy Kraut! Part 1' (BCD17721) documented the wild beginnings, the second part is set around the turn of the decade and describes the gradual transformation of hard rock into heavy metal under the influence of AC/DC and Judas Priest.

The many forgotten bands that pioneered this movement include Straight Shooter, Faithful Breath, Bastard, Beast, Rampage, Bullet, Breslau, Viva and - last but not least - Accept. They created a sound that would soon be internationally competitive in all respects.

It didn't take long for the metal underground to consolidate and establish a reasonably functional infrastructure that enabled more and more young German bands to professionalize. In 1983, the critical mass is reached and the scene explodes.

With newly remastered recordings, this part closes the last remaining gap in our 'Kraut' series, from the beginnings of the German rock scene of 1968 in the west of the republic, pejoratively dubbed 'Krautrock,' and the prog rock movement in the GDR, which existed for a good ten years from around 1970, to the hard and original playing styles up to around the mid-1980s in West Germany.

'Heavy Kraut! Part 2' chronologically follows the short but consistent path to deafness.

"Various - Heavy Kraut!"

KRAUT! is a fine Krautrock cross-section in four editions, sorted by region - North, Central, South and Berlin, with the greatest hits, much long forgotten music and the most important songs.

At the end of the 60s, the Federal Republic of Germany developed a very individual and unique soundtrack to the social upheaval that was taking place at the same time. A large part of the young generation at that time revolted against the bourgeoisie, against the determining opinion sovereignty of the Springer press, against the bias of the media, against the muff under the gowns and against the general US-American guardianship. The breaking away from the Republic of the parents, but also the rejection of the real-existing socialism of the GDR, was accompanied by an additional resistance against the existing cultural values. Driven by the idea of finding a new path to a German identity in modern pop culture with penetrating curiosity and naive openness, musicians all over Germany went in search of a soundtrack that would be absolutely unique.

The social and musical roots of Krautrock lie in the time of the student revolt in the mid-1960s. With the emergence of psychedelic rock, hard rock and progressive rock, new special forms of rock music emerged worldwide - even sound visionaries like Karlheinz Stockhausen had a great influence. There were certainly overlaps with British prog rock bands. However, the creative approach of the Krautrock bands, who wanted to free themselves from international role models as well as fixed schemes of music making, was completely different. In general, it was a progressive basic idea, which expressed itself in strongly structured and freely improvised forms.

But the term 'Krautrock' was also a synonym for rock music from Germany, which did not want to give in to the mere imitation of rock 'n' roll or beat models from the English-speaking world. For a long time, 'Krautrock' was rather a collective term and a disparagingly used expression for everything that stomped Teutonic, i.e. wooden and bulky. The English music press also wanted to make fun of the growing self-confidence of German rock bands. Krautrock' stood for Teutonic meticulousness, ponderousness, pathos and rhythmic cramps in the German bands of the time. Nobody really had an exact definition, but everyone knew what was meant when it was mentioned - everything German was Kraut!

In the mid 70s the Krautrock boom ended as suddenly as it began and it took more than two decades to remember the qualities of that time. For since many techno musicians in the second half of the 90s referred to the Krautrockers' desire to experiment, Krautrock experienced a renaissance. The revival was nourished by various re-releases of old records.

Burghard Rausch, born in 1947, born in Berlin: DJ, radio presenter, author and music journalist - among others for RIAS-Berlin, Radio Bremen and ByteFM - vinyl collector and drummer (Agitation Free, Bel Ami), co-author of 'Stationen - Die Trends der Rock-Epoche Mitte der 80er' (with Joachim Deicke), co-author of the 'Rockmusik- Lexikon' (with Christian Graf), editor, compiler, biographer and author of the four-part CD series 'NDW - Aus grauer Städte Mauern' (NDW - From grey cities walls)
