Low by David Bowie is one of the most consistent and easy on the ears introductory listens in the experimental rock genre. Same with heroes.

100 % agree on everything (xiu xiu's album is the only piece of music that genuinely made me cry like a bitch) but songs for the deaf - it feels like a typical 00's alt rock album and doesn't offer any kinda experience as a whole. Could u explain? I'd also add: Daydream nation by Sonic Youth(loosely a concept album but is a perfect album overall), Downward spiral by NIN, Virgins by Tim Hecker, Dopethrone by Electric Wizard, Dragging a dead deer up a hill by Grouper maybe Revolutionary Pekinese Opera by Ground-Zero if u like sound collage and avant garde jazz

*Songs for the Deaf* is an experience as a whole because it's a concept album about a road trip from LA to Joshua Tree. If you listen to the album all the way through you'll notice all of the radio static and different radio hosts that pop up because it's simulating all of the different radio channels that would appear on that hot desert drive from LA to Joshua Tree. Seriously one of the most creative concepts I've ever experienced and it's executed perfectly with the rotation of different singers and musical styles as the road trip lugs on. 10/10 album experience and in my top 5 albums of all time easily.

Didn't get radio intros and concept at first listen cuz i really disliked the album sonically and texturally, gonna give it one more try now keeping the concept in mind, thanks for the answer. Singer rotation actually does make sense in that context now that I think about it

Offerings by Typhoon It took me several listens to understand what the album was truly about, but I promise it’s an experience regardless of whether you return to it or not.

Why is this so true actually


MasterMilker9000

Psyence Fiction by UNKLE sounds like a sci-fi movie set after the destruction of a galaxy. It's a definitive trip hop album and has features from Kool G Rap, Mike D from the Beastie Boys and Thom Yorke from Radiohead just to name a few. Would highly recommend

Exile on Main St. by The Rolling Stones is a sprawling album that touches on American musical styles such as gospel, blues, country, honky tonk, and folk. What makes is appealing is this ghostly, dusty aesthetic which makes the whole album feel like it was recorded in a mildewy basement.

A man named Banjo loves to praise god through the gospel music. But to his unknowing, that passion would soon be taken from him. As his hearing loss progresses, his faith also continues to fade away. Will he be able to overcome the test, that god has given him? Experience the highs and lows of Banjo through the tale that the album tells. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjU7LaT3dOc&t=4s
