Though titled simply "Can" upon its original release in 1979, this album has become better known by the title under which it was reissued in the mid-'80s, INNER SPACE. INNER SPACE features the same lineup as 1978's OUT OF REACH, and tracks like "Sodom" and "Ethnological Forgery Series No. 99" see the outfit making further inroads into OUT OF REACH's dense, disco-infused world-beat sound.
Though they were one of the key bands of the 1970s Krautrock movement, Can always saw themselves as individualists. They were influenced more by composers like Stockhausen than by psychedelic rock, but this seminal German band combined their avant-garde tendencies with rock trappings and funk-inflected rhythms in an amazingly natural way, influencing subsequent generations of iconoclasts.
