Paperhouse? Oh yeah!

Feeling the urge to post a whole bunch of music...i've been all over the place recently, lot's of good things. But for now here is the question: "paperhouse" or "oh yeah"? 1st and 3rd track's off of Can's classic Tago Mago. Similar length, somewhat similar structure, alternating between more melodic periods and more up-beat sections driven by that drum beat (oh god I love the drumming in Can. It is all about the drumming in Can. Same with Neu! actually, i really need to post tracks by them too, they're awesome), and all with damo suzuki madly singing god-knows-what over top.

So which is the winner? I think paperhouse is a little more melodic, oh yeah a bit more drum-driven. But I can't decide, they are both awesome. Really feeling the krautrock these days. Why is all the music I listen to so german?? (don't answer that)

Can - Paperhouse

Can - Oh Yeah


(ps. sorry the tracks are .ogg files, i just ripped them to my hardrive here at school and linux does that by defualt (stupid, worthless linux!), but winamp has no prob playing them. don't know about itunes/ipod though).
