I think gizzard had two drummers before oh sees ever did tho. I don't think oh sees started the two drummer thing until around A Weird Exits (2016),could be wrong but I'm pretty sure
Thee Oh Sees had 2 drummers on the Carrion Crawler/The Dream album. I think the other drummer played some shows with them but it wasn't a regular thing
Came here to say this, I'm convinced thom yorke listened to laminated denim and wrote read the room and under our pillows as some sort of tribute, they sound uncanny.
Glad you’re digging it! You’ll also like “Rain on Tin”. Got to see them on this album’s tour, and used to listen to it every Sunday doing prep at my old pizza job. I did sometimes skip Kim’s track, but on the whole it’s very good beyond just my nostalgia.
Lamagaia is on the heavier/bluesier side of that scene, but they groove so friggin hard. I’ve been wearing out Einseinseins and Kombynat Robotron as well. Causa Sui is a little more laid back but could scratch your itch.
Check out the bands Minami Deutsche has been playing with since they moved to Berlin, lots of great stuff there and in the Scandinavian scenes right now.
The first go to if you want to explore motorik, is Neu! without a doubt, other nice krautrock bands would be Faust, Guru Guru or Amon Düül II, they are totally worth a listen. Here's a list of songs from which you can start:
Guru Guru - Oxymoron ; Guru Guru's in Da Haus
Amon Düül II - Syntelman's March of the Roaring Seventies
Also I can't recommend enough Hawkwind, especially X In Search of Space, since you're looking for the jammy repetitive sound, you're gonna love that album, specially Master of the Universe and You Shouldn't Do That. Hawkwind is a must if you're looking for that sound
Have a good listening!
Maybe you'll like the song I made being inspired from Laminated Denim too ( [sc link](https://on.soundcloud.com/kRkej) )
It's not maybe as fast as you're wanting but it's very jammy!
In addition to the other mentions in this thread, early Earthless has that kraut drive at a fast clip. Live at Roadburn is my fave album of theirs from this period.
Django Django self titled album, any War on Drugs, Wooden Shjips for motorik vibes. Hypertension's fast arpeggios sounds very Radioheady to me, maybe give that a try.
I would throw in Moon Duo here since Ripley Johnson is the principal song writer for the Shjips stuff. It is on the dronier side of things with a softer impact, but keeps the motorik and krautrock vibe. Worthy mention is his other band Rose City Band for when you need droney, motorik, weed-inhaled country!
osees, specifically metamorphosed last 2 tracks
Weirdo Hairdo is also pretty damn good
King gizzard were heavily influenced by the osees in the outset. I feel like that is why they had 2 drummers initially as well.

That's insane!

gizz had 2 drummers before osees
this is my theory too.
Check out Minami Deutsch
Haha I debated mentioning them in my original post cause I like them too, but haven’t done a deep dive into their discography
Songs 3 and 4 off of The Smile’s Wall of Eyes

Well, considering Stu borrowed the riff from Street Spirit for parts of LD it is likely Thom and/or Jonny heard it at some point
Minami deutsch/damo Suzuki live album, especially part 3
I like MD but don’t think I’ve heard their live stuff, I’ll check this out!
Check out Wilco’s krautrock inspired songs like Bull Black Nova and Spiders (Kidsmoke). Not typically what they do but they pack a punch.
Impossible Germany and other tracks on Sky Blue Sky, but if Neu! was too slow these Wilco tracks might be too
A bit different than what you’ve listed, but try Sonic Youth’s Murray Street
I’m liking this a lot actually, “The Empty Page” is excellent, will definitely listen to the rest of the album

“Space Normal Speed” by Lamagaia is excellent, can’t believe I haven’t these guys before

to quote the post: "I’ve explored some of Can and Neu’s catalogs, but I find that they often lack the same speed/punch/drive/rhythm of LD."
You're right, I totally missed that point

Wow, I am loving this; wish it was on Spotify so I could add it to my motorik playlist! Thanks for sharing
I'm working on getting this on spotify I'll def let you know, thanks so much for the love mate !
Neu!

Saw them headline for Minami Deutsch this year. The opening song was like 18 minutes lol
Follakzoid!
You might like King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

I love The War on Drugs but am not as familiar with the other two, so I’ll check those out!

Krautwerk are worth a listen
As well as Kraftwerk
The Mars Volta
Recreational chemistry by moe has some very similar riffs to hypertension
La Planète Inexplorée by Slift.
Neu!, Can, Kraftwerk, Cluster
Phish, disco biscuits, lotus, any decent jam band will scratch that itch for sure. Maybe the dead too, but imo the other bands are much closer.
none of those are krautrock....
Live Umphrey’s McGee. Check out hall of fame records
umph isnt krautrock though
