I just got into Swans. Their albums “To be kind” or “Glowing man” are great, and it reminded me of “20 Jazz Junk Greats” by Throbbing Gristle. I wonder how many great experimental albums are there?

    I’ll be honest, I don’t really know what counts as “experimental,” but I’ve been really liking music in this genre that I guess is called “Baroque Metal” or something like that. Igorrr and Keygen Church have been a couple favorites.

    More on the jazzy side, I listened to Sungazer’s album Perihelion on repeat for like two straight weeks, it’s really good

      I love Igorrr. It has been interesting seeing the project progress to having lots of musicinas rather than just sampling. I love the older stuff with the samples, but I imagine the new stuff would be fun to see live.

      Keygen Church is SO GOOD. I really dig this fusion of metal, glitch (I guess? I don’t really know a good term for it lol) and baroque music. I’ll check Igorrr out, I’ve been craving something in that vein for the longest time!

        I actually found Igorrr first, and had no idea what I was in for (I was unaware of this genre before I found them). They’re fantastic, I hope you enjoy!

          I really enjoyed Igorrr! I think it has more middle-eastern influences, which I really dig! Thanks for the recommendations! :D

        Have you listened to Master Boot Record? It is the same guy as Keygen Church. A few years back he set up some really fun internet scavenger hunts with some fun puzzles, ciphers, etc using old protocols, which eventually led to unreleased tracks and an actual BBS.
