The Third Eye Foundation - Ghost



Genre: Experimental/Avant-garde/Trip-hop

Tom Waits - Real Gone

Download
Tom Waits... He's Real gone...and Real badass...sorry had to be done, throw your bad joke rocks at me all you want. But seriously if you like tom waits (or funky weird blues) get this thing, throw on "Hoist That Rag" and dance the cha cha all around your living room with whatever/whomever you may. Be it human, canine, feline or mannequin (...freak)

Genre:Avant-Blues

The God Machine - Scenes From The Second Storey

Download
Scenes from the second storey reminds me of the rawness of the earlier Tool albums, and some of the grungier Smashing pumpkins songs out there. Its got an ever so faint essence of Goth here and there through out the album, mainly seen in depressing intro's to some songs. Its a really uniquely diverse album, especially considering it came out in the early nineties. If your a fan of multiple genres of heavy music (grunge, metal, sludge,etcetcblahblah) give this one a try, its pretty dope if I might say so myself.

Genre:All things heavy

Dredg - El Cielo

Download
Really catchy and memorable in pretty much every form. My only beef is when the vocalist crams in way too many words in far too few syllables. Listen to Same ol' Road and Sanzen and you'll see what i mean. "where i can later look and see *thalalalalibble* gallery", *say that part in less then a second...lol. might sound like im mocking them but im just havin some fun, give um a shot, you may just be able to overlook the ramdomly speedy singing and enjoy everything else El Cielo has to offer.


Genre:Poppy/Catchy Art Rock

Black Keys - Thickfreakness
