Kraftwerk? I'd say they were huge. Can you think of another German group bigger than them?

i'm hardly the first person to name them. i think jd are pretty big as well, but i donlt think either are huge.
interesting criteria - another german band that's bigger than them - yeah, that's a measure of hugeness, hasslehoff is big in germany fer chrissakes!
How about The Smithereens? I even saw them at a local cliub last night. It was a lot of fun.

The Doors were selling out stadiums when Jimbo was still alive.
And Passengers was crap!
Thought of some more:
The Pixies The Dead Kennedys The Black Flag The Extreme Noise Terror The P.I.L
The crucial three:Wah!/Teardrops/Bunnymen. 4.Magazine. Joint 5th. Jesus and Mary Chain/Au Pairs.

Followed by the Fleetwood Mac with Jeremy Spencer, who left to join a cult... 
My opinion of the top 5 cult bands are (1)The Cure, (2)Joy Division/New Order, (3)Depeche Mode, (4)Bauhaus/Love and Rockets, and (5)The Smiths.

I'd say that The Scorpions were Germanys' biggest band.I would guess that they have shifted more records than Kraftwerk. Crap band though.

Don't forget Boney M! 
Feel like i've been buried up to my neck then stoned for suggesting Kraftwerk were bigger than a cult band. As for the Scorpions,im not having it they were/are bigger than the technokraut pioneers.

Can't see how Kraftwerk can be considered as a cult band either, hugely, hugely influential yes but not a cult band for me I'm afraid...
ok then the Partridge Fackin Family - or the Osmonds.
most of these cult bands that people describe, Joe Blow in the street won't have even heard of.
