On Future Days, Can fully explored the ambient direction they had introduced into their sound on the previous year's Ege Bamyasi, and in the process created a landmark in European electronic music.

Future Days sets its sights a little lower. Suzuki mostly sticks to the background, aside from a peculiar attempt at a pop song ("Moonshake"); the rest of the album is three long, dreamy pieces that suggest Can had been listening to electric-era Miles Davis.

Can? More like Can Deez Nuts...
What a strange choice to make your band name vulnerable to the deez nuts attack, not the brightest marketing

Even though Tago Mago is my favourite of the big three Can albums, it floors me that this one and Ege Bamyası aren't top 500 on this website as well. If anything all three deserve to be top 100. You people have no standards lol.
