Laibach - Volk

Artist: Laibach
Album: Volk
Year: 2006
Genre(s): Industrial, experimental

Industrial legends Laibach released 2006 album Laibach with the concept of each song representing a nation and attempting to tackle its major political, social, economic, and international issues in the early 21st century through lyrics and sonic imagery. It's a little less abrasive and a little less dancy than the Laibach I'm familiar with, but a fantastic album (or else, why would I choose to post it?)

Artist: Techno Animal
Album: The Brotherhood Of The Bomb
Year: 2001
Genre(s): Hip hop, electronic

Really heavy and evil-sounding hip hop from Justin Broadrick (Godflesh, Jesu, Final) and Kevin Martin (God, Ice, The Bug, The Curse Of The Golden Vampire) featuring numerous guests, such as Dälek and Rubberoom. Very good stuff, here.

Violent Onsen Geisha - Nation Of Rhythm Slaves

Artist: Violent Onsen Geisha
Album: Nation Of Rhythm Slaves
Year: 1996
Genre(s): Noise, experimental

One of my favorite noise albums from one of my favorite noise artists. Nation Of Rhythm Slaves experiments with conventional music as well as noise, and it's always interesting and sometimes even hilarious. Violent Onsen Geisha never fails to surprise... either this or Hanatarash has to be my favorite "Japanoise" project.

Bongripper - Heroin

Artist: Bongripper
Album: Heroin
Year: 2008
Genre(s): Drone, noise

Bongripper's drone/noise album, limited to 100 copies. The kit pictured here with extensive packaging was only limited to 25 copies, itself... I'm pretty jealous of anyone who actually owns one. Pretty awesome album.

The Wounded Kings - The Shadow Over Atlantis

Artist: The Wounded Kings
Album: The Shadow Over Atlantis
Year: 2010

Though it's sort of your typical Black Sabbath worship evil-sounding doom metal, The Wounded Kings, while certainly not groundbreaking, still create some fantastic doom metal. This is a very solid album. Check it out.

Blue Sabbath Black Cheer - Borre Fen

Artist: Blue Sabbath Black Cheer
Album: Borre Fen
Year: 2007
Genre(s): Noise

Listened to this while falling asleep last night. Very rhythmic and dynamic noise "album," though it's only one track that barely makes it into the double digits, minutes-wise. Really good stuff, though, or I wouldn't be posting it.

Godflesh - Godflesh

Album: Godflesh
Year: 1988 (1990 version)
Genre(s): Industrial metal, metal

This is Earache's 1990 reissue of the 1988 debut album from Godflesh featuring two bonus tracks. This is the heaviest band ever, in my opinion. Highly influential. Awesome in every way. If you're not familiar, get familiar.

The Ocean - Anthropocentric

Artist - The Ocean
Album - Anthropocentric
Year -2010
Genre(s) - Post Metal/Sludge/Progressive

I love The Ocean! Earlier this year they put out an album called Heliocentric which is the first part of this double record. Heliocentric is one of my favorite albums to come out this year(I'll post it later), and only being half way through Anthropocentric, I'm in love with this record too. Thank you The Ocean for putting out two killer albums in one year.
