Bee Mask - Elegy For Beach Friday


if aliens wrote music, this is probably kind of what it would sound like... recently i've been getting into drone music, which is basically music that is not as much focused on melody or rhythm as it is on texture and dynamics, and i must say, this is a freaking good drone album, with tons of freaky alien soundscapes, so if you are into drone, you should definitely get this album. i like it so much, that i actually recommend buying it (i did, and ok, maybe thats just cause it was just released and wasn't on any big torrent sites yet, but whatever, it's still worth it). this album is a masterpiece :D

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - F♯ A♯ ∞


the first album by gy!be, and still one of my favorites (they are kinda all my favorites though). my version is 3 tracks long, each one very very long for a single song, but yours might differ, as there are several. each track is divided into several movements with recurring themes and melodies, but the tempo throughout is rather slow, but shifting. the base of this album seems to be the end of the world, and in fact, wikipedia says it was one of the main inspirations for the film "28 days later". if you haven't heard this album yet, i highly recommend it (but seriously, where have you been if you haven't heard it?).

Boris - Amplifier Worship


some of the most distorted, droning, noisy sludge/doom metal on the planet. boris is well known for changing styles pretty much every time they release something, and this release is well known for its heavily distorted, droning guitar, death metal style growling and screaming, and the odd noisy synth and polyrhythm drum beat thrown in for good measure. just listen for yourself :)
