Oh shit. How did I forget Pavement? I'd like to fit Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain and Slanted and Enchanted on my list somewhere.

more lists PLZ

nwatts, if you really like Antony and the Johnsons I suggest you give Scott Walker a go. He influenced them and is still working, in fact his new album "The Drift" came out and it's absolutely awesome.

But yeah, try starting on Scott 4 and move on to his later stuff, Tilt and The Drift, his later stuff being much darker and more abstract.

 

[s-p-a-c-e-d]

The Drift seemed really difficult to get into for me, maybe I should try his older albums first?

And a list?

Air - Moon Safari (Sexy Boy is a great song to listen to on repeat)

And Patrick Wolf has been a recent obsession for me as well; both of his albums are quality (but, Lycanthropy is worth more listens I suppose)

Coil - Love's Secret Domain (need more reccommendations also, his/their discography is way too extensive)

Ween - Pure Guava

Faust - Faust IV (Their best album? Not too sure)

Also, Bjork is a genius, I've really been getting into Medulla lately which I didn't like at all before.

ive always preferred wind in the wires to lycanthropy...its a much more cohesive record while lycanthropy is a mish-mash
