> Ash Ra Tempel were the most exciting and inspired rock'n'roll band from Germany. Their LPs carried Detroit's metal into heights, that even the MC5, the Stooges or not even Funkadelic could ever have dreamed of.

The one who was looking for the fulfilment of the Detroit-promise, found it 1971 in A.R.T.

They had banned everything on a record, that Iggy Pop had promised, but never could deliver.
