Ege Bamyası is the third studio album by the German Krautrock band Can, released in November 1972 by United Artists Records. It contains the single "Spoon", which charted in the Top 10 on the German singles chart after its inclusion as the theme song to the German television mini-series Das Messer. The success of the single allowed Can to establish their own studio, Inner Space Studio, in Weilerswist, where they completed the rest of the album. It was recorded and produced under a strict June 1972 deadline, finishing "Soup" a day before the end date. Ege Bamyası was met with critical acclaim, praised for skilful fusion of experimental music, electronic sounds, and avant-funk. Spectrum Sounds magazine called the album's experience as "maybe the most danceable that experimental music gets". Retrospective reviews highlighted that the album stands out among Can discography for being one of the band's most focused and tense records. The album helped popularize krautrock and inspired later musicians including Brian Eno, Sonic Youth, the Orb, Wire, Pavement, and System 7, some of whom participated in the Can tribute remix album Sacrilege.
