Not nice to have to compare the two, but I'm more of a Can-ite than a Faust-er if I had to choose. Can just had something musically that is uniquely theirs, and of course getting into them when I first discovered LSD helped turn them and their music into magic to my ears. Faust were a later discovery for me and never quite seemed as incandescent as Can. I thought they were too patchy really (though that's kind of the point I suppose!).
