Live version of Kanaan, the bone-crunching opening number from Amon Düül II’s 1968 Krautrock classic Phallus Dei (i.e. God’s Cock). Crazy, communal-living Amon Düül II’s thunderous psychedelic sound has influenced bands from The Fall to the Dead Kennedys to the early sound of the Psychedelic Furs. If you like really heavy acid-drenched freakout music from the 60s, you cannot possibly go wrong with either Phallus Dei or their next album Yeti. Jammy riff-rock and wonderfully anarchic. Listen LOUD.

Dangerous Minds is a compendium of oddities, pop culture treasures, high weirdness, punk rock and politics drawn from the outer reaches of pop culture. Our editorial policy, such that it is, reflects the interests, whimsies and peculiarities of the individual writers. And sometimes it doesn't. Very often the idea is just "Here's what so and so said, take a look and see what you think." I'll repeat that: We're not necessarily endorsing everything you'll find here, we're merely saying "Here it is." We think human beings are very strange and often totally hilarious. We enjoy weird and inexplicable things very much. We believe things have to change and change swiftly. It's got to be about the common good or it's no good at all. We like to get suggestions of fun/serious things from our good-looking, high IQ readers. We are your favorite distraction.
