You do. Look into Autobahn, Trans-Europe Express, The Man Machine and Computer World. I guess the order would depend on what tracks you liked the most on Minimum-Maximum, but I'd nominate Trans-Europe Express for a starting point.
Also, when you've heard those albums, you might want to look into "Electric Lucifer" by Bruce Haack. I'd recommend the guy to anybody who likes Kraftwerk.

You could also look into a group called Neu!, they were formed by early members of Kraftwerk. They took a more organic approach, but they both have alot in common.

Kraftwerk were absolutely magnificent when I saw them last year.
On a given moment they launched background images of Eddy Merckx (our national cycling pride), the whole crowd started chanting 'Eddy! Eddy! Eddy!'. yeah, those were some great moments.

i'm seriously entertaining the idea of picking up 'minimum-maximum' next time i go record shopping. the only tracks i've heard are autobahn and the robots, but i want more. four years ago i would have said i was crazy for wanting computer noise bleeps.

There's a HUGE article on these guys (13 page interview) in the Nov 2009 Mojo magazine. The photo's of this year's stage show look fucking fabulous.
