Monuments To Musical Weirdness

A Listmania! list by Mr. A. J. Lawson "siafu_harshnoise" (black country)
(REAL NAME)   
 
Trout Mask Replica
1.  Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart
The list author says:
  "Very much the weirdo's weirdo, the Captain and his gang laid down some distinctly acid-soaked, jazz tinged eccenticity on "Trout...". Decades ahead of its time."
Used & New from: £3.99

Frizzle Fry
2.  Frizzle Fry by Primus
The list author says:
  "Primus quite literally have a genre all to themselves. Their debut album is the heaviest, the funkiest and most jaw-droppingly technical of all their releases."
Used & New from: £5.78
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

King For A Day, Fool For A Lifetime
3.  King For A Day, Fool For A Lifetime by Faith No More
The list author says:
  "Faith No More were notorious for hopping from one genre to another throughout an album, but on "King For A Day..." they sacrificed some variety in exchange for their own ugly brand of heaviness."
£4.96   Used & New from: £2.29
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (24 customer reviews)

Bitches Brew
4.  Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
The list author says:
  "Already a legendary jazz icon, Miles Davies gathered together the finest musicians he could find and recorded one of the first ever jazz fusion records. Surprisingly chilled psychedelic jams."
£7.39   Used & New from: £2.98
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (34 customer reviews)

Plague Soundscapes
5.  Plague Soundscapes by Locust
The list author says:
  "The Locust are effectively four art students in bug suits making one hell of a racket. "Plague..." is spazzcore par excellence, not unlike being constantly punched in the face for 23 minutes."
£10.54   Used & New from: £2.94
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

Locust Abortion Technician: Remastered
6.  Locust Abortion Technician: Remastered by Butthole Surfers
The list author says:
  "If ever there was to be an accurate accusation that a band was insane this is it. Pitchshifted-to-death country/punk/blues/acid rock madness."
£6.37   Used & New from: £4.74
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Catch 33
7.  Catch 33 by Meshuggah
The list author says:
  "Meshuggah are probably the most technically proficient band on the planet. "Catch 33" is one long song, brilliantly showcasing their contempt for standard time signatures."
£9.07   Used & New from: £5.06
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (17 customer reviews)

Penderecki - Orchestral Works, Vol 1
8.  Penderecki - Orchestral Works, Vol 1 by Krzysztof Penderecki
The list author says:
  "Containing both the brilliant "Fluorescences" and the nigh terrifying "Threnody For The Victims Of Hiroshima", this collection is a celebration of one of the most underrated modern composers."
£5.77   Used & New from: £1.98
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
9.  Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles
The list author says:
  "Often lauded as the Beatles best album (a title perhaps more worthy of "Revolver"), "Sgt. Pepper's..." is certainly one of their strangest. This represents the high watermark for all psychedelia."
Used & New from: £2.69
4.1 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (178 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Buried Secrets / Guts of a Virgin
10.  Buried Secrets / Guts of a Virgin by Painkiller
The list author says:
  "Consisting of members from Naked City and Napalm Death, Painkiller were the free jazz/grindcore soundtrack to the darkest of nightmares. You could probably make someone wet the bed with track 1 alone."
Used & New from: £14.99
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)
