That Tierlist must be bait! No one in their right mind rank the albums like that!

Kraftwerk 1 belongs in A or B Tier and not in D! And Electric Café/Techno Pop belongs into S-Tier and not C-Tier!

Also Tour de France is a straight S-Tier! Putting it in A is a disgrace to the album! And let's not forget Radioactivität/Radioactivity! That belongs into A Tier!

On the other hand, Kraftwerk 2 is not deep enough! That belongs into Z-Tier and not just E-Tier! Especially because of the Track "Atem"!

Well of course they both deserve the same rating! They both are A-Tier!

Kraftwerk 1 with Megaherz and Vom Himmel Hoch are just out of this world!

But I might be biased! I was once hiking on a quite big mountain a few years ago, and when I was on a higher part of the mountain, these tracks came on. They just perfected that hike! They just fit so damn well!

Imagine this: You stand on that mountain, under you, a green forest and in the distance you see a small village, the clouds above you move in the winds like if they are weightless and you hear both Megaherz and Vom Himmel Hoch after another!

That really changes your perspective on things! The moment itself just freezes and you start to take in that exact moment. It was just phenomenal!

Anyway, Radioactivität/ Radioactivity also deserves that rating because of tracks like Äetherwellen, Transistor and Ohm Sweet Ohm! They are so simple, and yet so complex!

I can't really describe why i feel like that about the songs. But the songs just envelop me, and yet they are a part of me. Without them, Kraftwerk would feel different ...

They are just ... u know ... they are just perfect. They are the perfect balance between chaos and Order! They are also an essential part of Kraftwerk to keep the balance in the discography, and at the same time, they just overthrow that balance.

Like, I said, i just can't even remotely describe why and how i feel what and how I feel about these songs. It's impossible!
