Floh de Cologne (wordplay on Eau de Cologne) were a German band, active from 1966 to 1983, regarded as a pioneer of krautrock and Political Satire Music. After some success at the beginning of the 70s, the band separated finally in 1983.[1]
History
The group was formed in 1966 by a group of radical theatre students from the University of Cologne.[2] Their first album, Vietnam, released in 1968, is a fierce criticism of the war in Vietnam.[2] the profits made from said album was donated to a Vietnamese charity. They satirised consumer society and sought to take their message to young workers and apprentices.[3][2] Impressed by their music and especially their lyrics, Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser decided to produce their next two albums: Rockoper Profitgeier (1971) and Lucky Streik (1972).
Their musical style is considered as being krautrock.
