0-5: won't ever relisten unless under duress
6-7: if the mood strikes I'll relisten
8-9: now that's what I call music
10: they don't love you like I love you
Suicide - Suicide ('77)
Wasn't a huge fan of this personally, but I can easily see why it's so influential. A few songs I really enjoyed, Rocket U.S.A. was probably the most interesting.

Sonic Youth - Bad Moon Rising ('85)
Wasn't expecting to like this as much as I did considering I've never been a big fan of the singles from them I've heard. It might just be because of the jack-o'-lantern on the cover, but the sound evokes in me how Halloween feels.

Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Unknown Mortal Orchestra ('11)
Outside of Sex&Food this band has been more of a singles listen for me. Enjoyed the debut a lot, it's very tight at only 30min, but it does a good amount with that time.

The Mystery Lights - Too Much Tension! ('19)
I did enjoy it, but at times it does feel a bit TOO on the nose of their inspirations. It almost feels like a coverband of some obscure lost band from the 60s which makes it hard for them to stand out with their own sound.

Coil/Nine Inch Nails - Recoiled ('14)
Was unaware Coil had already done work on previous NIN remix albums, so seeing these alternate takes and unused versions is even cooler. Downward Spiral is crazy, but honestly all of these have that eerie vibe Coil does so well.

Coil - Stolen & Contaminated Songs ('92)
Interesting to hear a full album of alternate/cut song ideas from the Love's Secret Domain sessions. Very clear how accessible that album is in retrospect when you look at what they had cooking at the same time. Enjoyed it a lot.

Coil - Love's Secret Domain ('91)
This album is so interesting, incredibly dark at times, while still having this backing dance hall rhythm. I hope they delve further into the post-industrial sound they found here, because it's a very unique vibe that I really like.

King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard - Live in Prague '25 ('25)
The Ice V jams were so good, I need a funk album from them so bad. Starting to get tired of Grim Reaper being in every synth show, but it's so good in the moment i can't even blame them one bit.

Coil - Gold Is The Metal (With The Broadest Shoulders) ('87)
Compilation of unused song ideas from previous releases. Some are better than others, but they're all interesting in their own right. Also found out they had an unapproved Hellraiser soundtrack so gonna listen next

King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard - Live in Berlin '25 ('25)
Starting off with a 30minute MotU suite is so good, again really love when the non synth table songs get time to shine. Slow Jam 1 is another great example of an interesting take on a classic.

Tortoise - Touch ('25)
A nice comeback album for them, I hadnt been feeling the last 3 albums prior to the hiatus, they weren't bad just not exciting. This one isn't really pushing any new boundaries per se, but feels like a return to form and is just solid throughout.

Coil - Scatology ('84)
As with a lot of the early Coil work, I think sometimes the vocals can be a bit grating, but most of the time it just adds to the uncomfortable ambiance they create. Again shame it's only on streaming via re-uploaded playlists, but glad it's accessible

King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard - Live in London 25 ('25)
Another great set of shows, spreading out the synth shows has been good cause think I'd get bored if not. Always something new being done or tried, love how they're starting to integrate the rock side more and more.

Coil - Horse Rotorvator ('86)
Shame this isn't on streaming in full, but at least there's enough unofficial uploads to have playlists of it. Very interesting album, I just really love the approach Coil takes when writing music, the 80s content is so gritty it's great.

Coil - The New Backwards ('08)
The final evolution of the 90s demos that never saw the light of day. I plan on going to them at some point, but wanted to start with what Coil always intended them to be. They have such a unique take on music, fitting final album I love it all

Ciśnienie - (angry noises) ('25)
This has been one of my favorite bands I discovered in 2025, so was really happy to see they released a new album. We need more scary jazz in the world, I've loved everything they've done so far, but this was the best 1st listen so far.
