Wu-Tang Clan - Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

While we're on the subject of hip-hop, this needs to be posted. Probably the only rap album you will ever need. It's simply a fucking classic, and is pretty much on everybody's top 10 list of best hip hop albums ever. So Fuck you if you don't have this.

Cash Rules Everything Around Me

Blu & Exile- Below The Heavens

A good old hip hop, Blu's a rapper with a style similiar to old Common. The beats are sample heavy not synthy no drum machines Exile does a great job producing especially on Dancing in the Rain and Below the Heaven part 1. In Rememberance another good job on Exile's part. Really this album is just similiar to hip hop albums of the late 80's and early 90's.

Dancing In The Rain

Former Ghosts- Fleurs

This is the best new band i have heard in god knows how long. Imagine if Joy division had sex with a synthesizer and spat out one of the most beautifully sad albums i have ever heard. I can not stop listening to this masterpiece, i kid you not i have listened to this six times today and i just want more. Also A side project of jamie stewart(Xiu Xiu, Ten In The Swear Jar I have just recently posted them) , Jamie steps down from postion of front man and singer and song writer Freddy Ruppert takes center stage delivering an array of heart felt, and powerful songs chalked full of emotion. THIS IS A MUST LISTEN

Krzysztof Penderecki - Matrix 5

Yes, it's about damn time we post some of this guy's stuff. A visionary genius of 20th century classical composition, Penderecki experiments with the boundaries of what an orchestra can do. He terrifies and stuns millions. Listen to his Threnody for the Victims of Hiromshima. His orchestra wails like air-raid sirens throughout, and about two minutes into the song, the players start slapping and hitting their instruments. If you dig weirdness of this nature, you will thoroughly enjoy this man's work.

MATRIX 5

Paavoharju - Yhä Hämärää

An eerie and beautiful folk band of Finnish Ascetic-Christians. I've been diggin' on this album of theirs for about a week, and I'm itchin' to share. To help describe its weirdness, it'd be the product of Penguin Cafe Orchestra and Sigur Rós if they got together and ate a fair amount of Fly Agaric mushrooms while they recorded some cool Eastern music with various, multi-cultural string instruments, a GameBoy, and some of Fuck Buttons' mixers. Magical.

Ten In The Swear Jar(XITSJ)-My Very Private Map

XITSJ is Jamie stewarts band that eventually became Xiu Xiu. Imagine an accordion heavy and how should i say, eh, less gay sounding Xiu Xiu(not that he doesnt sound fucking fantastic in xiu xiu he just sounds more like he likes girls in this band)

My chest burns

Leonard Cohen-Live From the BBC 1968

They should rename this album songs to kill yourself to. This live bootleg album takes songs from the songs of leonard cohen, songs from a room, and songs of love and hate and takes the already dark, somber songs and kicks up the depression factor. the best way i can describe this album is depressed and hopeless. This defintely has spooky and dark versions of your favorite Cohen songs. THIS MAY BE THE BEST LEONARD COHEN LBUM I HAVE HEARD THUS FAR.

Theres No Reason You Should Remember Me
