Wallenstein : Mother Universe 1972 (Full Album)
Until around 1973, the word "Deutsch-Rock" ("German Rock") was used to refer to the new groups from West Germany. Various sources claim that "Krautrock" was originally a humorous term coined in the early 1970s either by British disc jockey John Peel or by the UK music newspaper Melody Maker, in which experimental German bands found an early and enthusiastic following.
The first use of the term however, was found in a full page advertisement from Popo Music Management and Bacillus Records promoting German Rock in the UK, in April 1971. The term derives from the ethnic slur "kraut". "Kraut" in German can refer to herbs, weeds, and drugs.
Other names thrown around by the British music press were "Teutonic rock" and "Götterdämmer rock". West Germany's music press initially used "krautrock" as a pejorative, but the term lost its stigma after the music gained success in Britain.
