Upon the breakup of legendary Krautrock duo NEU!, drummer KLAUS DINGER formed LA DUSSELDORF with his brother THOMAS and keyboard player HANS LAMPE. This, their self-titled debut, was recorded in 1975 and is a staggering mix of Dinger's trademark motorik rhythms, glammy synths, pulsing organs, and urgent guitar work that altogether create a sound that, at times, predates both punk and post-punk, no small feat. Featuring their European hit single "Silver Cloud," La Düsseldorf's debut record is classic Krautrock on par with the best offerings of Neu!, Kraftwerk, and Can.
