The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.

10 Krautrock Bands


The term is disputed but here are 10 German bands from the seventies
1. Amon Düül II
2. Ash Ra Tempel
3. Can
4. Faust
5. Kraftwerk
6. Neu!
7. Tangerine Dream
8. Popol Vuh
9. Sunbirds
10. Cluster
(Most of these bands I am not really aware of but the list was prompted by the death of Can's bassist Holgar Czuky). Out of Focus is another example and should not be confused, of course, with Focus who are Dutch.

That will be Ammon Duul ll Gary. I had their double album 'Dance of the Lemmings'. And saw them live. And Tangerine Dream at the Rainbow Theatre introduced by John Peel.
Rammstein is another band.
Not heard of 8,9 & 10. The others, yes.

Thanks Mike. Nice to have informed comment. I've added the II to the first one.
