A kind of predecessor to Daydream Nation. The first real artsy record, and it utilizes lo-fi recording quite well. Heroin is one of the greatest songs of all time, too.

A metal record that's artsy. I always felt that this overall was the definition of grunge.

The most abstract thing I've ever heard, and I don't think anything else pulls it off as well as this.

Another artsy, sonically-interesting record. A massive step up from their debut, it feels like a journey through time and space.

Stellar record, mixing in reggae, ska, soul, and pop to the punk-rock sound to make the ultimate post-punk record. Plus, there's barely any filler, and the filler is better than most bands' regular songs.

My introduction to shoegaze, and a dense wall of noise which I don't think I've ever really seen anywhere else. Also, Mayonaise.

Another amazing post-punk record. Adds dub to the avant-garde of First Issue, resulting in odd tones and atmospheres.

Basically a live album, and my god, they pulled it off well. Iggy Pop is a banshee compared to their first album, and the feedback and jazz elements just make this a wild ride.

First 3 tracks are one of the best openers to an album I've ever heard. Overall, the tracks are very unusual. Wave of Mutilation, Hey, Tame, Debaser, Monkey Gone to Heaven, etc. are some of the best songs ever made.
