The Trouble With Peace, by Joe Abercrombie. Glad to be in a mood where I enjoy his cheerful cynicism again. Curious to see if any good deed in the whole long tale (this is book 7, depending on how you count) will remain unpunished though.

Sleep and (old) Grand Magus, heck yeah! What do you think of Electric Wizard, if I might ask? Dopethrone is the heaviest album of all time, in my unimportant opinion.

Gastronomicon by Slugdge, the mollusc-themed death metal band that is far, far better than it has any right to be

How experimental do you want? Einstuerzende Neubauten made some interesting records in the eighties (and later as well). I enjoy Five on the open-ended Richter Scale.

All Bitches Die by Lingua Ignota is absolutely terrifying, in a good way (if you enjoy unhinged screaming and beautiful melody, and who doesn’t?). It’s not a crappy hip hop album, but deals with artist’s experience of abuse and with revenge, hence the title.

Edit: Wait, you want brilliant experimental music? Check out Mr Bungle. The s/t is… funk hardcore metal, but good, I guess. The other albums, idk sinister lounge music perhaps?

Jeez I’m envious of that, I would love to have seen them live, but I’m on the wrong continent

I love small shows. I hope I get to see Hamell on Trial live before I die. That guy would put on am absolute kick-ass performance even if the audience was just me and my 76 year old aunt,

It’s a good one for sure! I’ll put a link too in the hope of luring some more people in Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

Also, I forgot to mention Acoustic Wizard, the equally awesome EW cover band

Agree! I’m kind of stuck as I don’t want to build anymore and I’m just not good enough to kill Moder… sailing disconsolately around and waiting for fish to jump into my longship
