Richard Hell & the Voidoids - Blank Generation


Genre: Punk
Year: 1977
About: This album is essential to the early punk scene. Hailing from New York's infamous CBGB's, Richard Hell epitomizes the punk spirit at its most important time. Jazz and funk were shown to be compatible with the punk aesthetic. He shows that "punk" is also passion and poetry. Hell's lyrics echo the voice of a generation, a "Blank Generation," of ostracized youth.
Sounds Like: Television, Johnny Thunders, Dead Boys, The Neon Boys
Experience

Boredoms - Pop Tatari


Genre: Noise, Experimental
Year: 1992
About: This might just be one of the most adventurous albums i've ever heard, and that's saying something for this Japanese group. It has a punk energy to it. I warn you that this is a thoughtfully written, delightfully disgusting mass of chaos that I can totally dig. If you're looking for something new to add to your mix, maybe with a few wild shrieks thrown in, try this out. This one's a trip; a maniacal trip through your conciousness.
Sounds Like: OOIOO, Melt-Banana, Ruins, Afrirampo
Experience

King Geedorah - Take Me to Your Leader


Genre: Rap
Year: 2003
About: One of MF Doom's many side projects, this one being based off the Godzilla monster King Ghidorah. Some sick rhymes to be heard. "You should listen to the album for what it is and not expect it to be like the average "rap" stuff you’re probably used to. Geedorah is a space monster. He's not from the Earth. I made it different on purpose. A blend of ill lyrics and instrumentals. To me its way iller than any of the wack shit out now... This whole album is Geedorah's alien perspective on humans. This is done intentionally to show the listener a mirror image of his/herself and the way we see each other. On the album we cover different subjects ranging from race issues to the neglect of children. Some might find the word "Nigger" offensive, or the line about the young girl not being able to read maybe considered a "bad taste" joke. All these insecurities are within us."
Sounds Like: Madvillain, DANGERDOOM, MF Doom, Cannibal Ox

A Place to Bury Strangers - A Place to Bury Strangers


Genre: Shoegaze, Indie
Year: 2007
About: Some noisy, angsty shoegaze. Within the heavy distortion are some pretty melodies though, and Oliver Ackermann's vocals scream unfulfilled teenage lust.
Sounds Like: My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain, HEALTH
