My girlfriend wanted to go pub after work, so we'll have to put this back a day. Don't worry, recs are coming!

For now, this is a great start (based on your chart)...

I'd like to listen to some metal, but the hoarse, yelled vocals are slightly off-putting. Can anyone suggest transitional albums for a post-hardcore, post-rock, noise rock fan? I don't know if this is metal, but I really enjoy Boris's Amplifier Worship, especially "Hama".

Australasia by Pelican

Has a catchy slogan that goes sth like: All the metal, none of those harsh vocals. LOL. Great metallic post-rock and their from IL too!! Buy local. ๐Ÿ˜

Oh, and this... definitely this...

Thanks Repo and Gowi!! I immediately enjoyed Pelican, Jesu, Cynic, and Neurosis - I'll return to the others when I become more familiar with the genre.

I'll just list what I think are totally essential hip-hop albums:

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back and Fear of a Black Planet by Public Enemy
The Low End Theory and Midnight Marauders by A Tribe Called Quest
Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers by Wu-Tang Clan
Illmatic by Nas
The Infamous by Mobb Deep
Resurrection and Be by Common
Liquid Swords by GZA
Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star by Black Star
Madvillainy by Madvillain
Late Registration and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West
RTJ2 by Run the Jewels
good kid, m.A.A.d city and To Pimp a Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar

On a side-note, you should also check out trip-hop if you haven't already. My favorite albums from this genre would be Blue Lines and Mezzanine by Massive Attack, Dummy and Third by Portishead, Homogenic by Bjork and Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow.

For Gowi:

First off, I wholeheartedly second Mr. Fingers' Ammnesia. Even though it's a compilation of early 12" singles, it just contains some of the most soulful, most vital house music ever made.

I don't know how much you're familiar with, but here are some things that you really ought to check out...


E2-E4 by Manuel Gรถttsching

Basically the blueprint for modern techno, though how much direct influence it actually had is pretty debatable. How much you enjoy it will probably depend on your tolerance for repetition, but it's essential listening. Beautiful simplicity.


94 Diskont by Oval

Gorgeous oceans of ambient glitch. Very easy to get lost in.


stdio by snd

Maybe a bit of a long shot - might be too minimal for you. Their 2009 album, Atavism, is a bit more varied, and certainly plays more with time structures, so if there's even the slightest bit of interest in them you should also check that out.


Space Is Only Noise by Nicolas Jaar


Midtown 120 Blues by DJ Sprinkles


Elements Of Light by Pantha Du Prince


Workshop 19 by Kassem Mosse


Minutes of Sleep by Francis Harris


Music For The Quiet Hour/The Drawbar Organ EP's by Shackleton


ฦ’IN by John Talabot


House Of Woo by Maxmillion Dunbar


Confrontations by Umberto


Plays Bee Mask by Donato Dozzy


Frequencies by LFO


Surfing On Sine Waves by Polygon Window


Hangable Auto Bulb by AFX


1+3+1 by Triosk Meets Jan Jelinek


Minimal Nation by Robert Hood

All of the above are things I think you'll enjoy based on your chart and what you've said on the forums in recent days. Didn't know whether to go heavy on the classics or not. A lot of these are releases from the last couple of years, but they sprung to mind as things you'd enjoy.

I'm going to be a little broad here, but can you guys give me the last album that has stunned you? Like, the last album you've heard that has completely amazed you or impressed you, that you've given a high rating to. Thanks.
