Most random / retarded / weird shit you listen to?
- Thread starter WHITE DEVIL
- Start date
Probably Hardcore/Gabber. Or UKHardcore (happyhardcore new age, non-cheese shit).
Both being the most extreme, underground, and 'core' styles you can get in the world of electronic music. Extremely harsh beats, sometimes extremely fast and bouncey. Or intense and demonic as fuck. The type of shit people go absolutely nuts to and flip out and start moshing violently in a dark room, even moreso than the hardest of metal you can find. (unless its u.k. hardcore, then its all uplifting and shit. but im not as down with that as i am with the dark shit).

Alright random/retarded/weird music I like off the top of my head.
Fantômas (One of Mike Patton's many side projects...weird stuff.)
Mike Patton's solo albums
Nelly Furtado's first two cd's....fuck you, laugh if you want lol.
I got a free copy of Angels and Airwaves (Tom Delonge of Blink-182s new band) and I acctually kind of like it (even though I still want to kill Tom Delonge and the rest of Blink-182.)
Same with White Devil I like Neurosis as well.
That's all I can think of right now.

Some more:
I'm a big fan of Sigur Ros (amazing live) and the lead singer made up his own language called Hopelandic for one of their albums and have used it on a few of their others...that's pretty fucking weird if you ask me.
Animal Collective who are kind of like a mix between Psych Folk and Noise Rock.
I like a lot of Frank Zappa's work. I think more or less everyone in this forum knows about him.
John Zorn - Don't know about him...look his work up...it's some pretty amazing/interesting stuff.
TV on the Radio - Their a band from NYC who's music spans genres as diverse as free jazz, a cappella/ doo-wop, psychedelia and trip-hop. All their stuff is really good IMO.
The Books - Best way I can describe them is to quote part of their page on Wikipedia: Great topic btw White Devil.

Zappa is quality... so is TV On The Radio (Who toured with the Faint, im a huge Faint fan if anyone knows of them. Electro-rock)
Hmm lets see.... I dunno if anyone knows about Shpongle but they are one of the groups in my life that redefined the entire way I look at music. Really tribal, psychedelic ambient (sometimes psytrance-ish but always organic, never "techno" feeling) producers.. include a lot of drums and trippy structures in their music. To most of the American population, they'd definitely be considered "weird", which makes me like any artist that much more.
I dunno, I cant really name any "rock" that I think would be considered random or weird. Even the really electro/futuristic stuff like Faint and Orgy, its all fairly acceptable and not out of the norm I guess. The world of electronic music is where the path shoots off the regular acceptance level and becomes an "abnormal" type of sound to American culture as a whole.
