WCSThis post is for people who want to hear some music of the kind you don't normally hear. Most of you will probably think its all bloody terrible, but that's ok, if you're adventurous come in and have a listen.
Tropical Fuck Storm (great band name haha) - Soft Power
(psychadelic, progressive, atmospheric rock)
A friend showed me this album last night. Admittedly I'd smoked alot of weed but I'm still in love with it today. The lyrics are great and they have their own sound. There's some really good stuff coming out of Australia at the moment

Melody's Echo Chamber - Visions of Someone Special, On a Wall of Reflections
(dream pop/shoegaze/french whispery voice)
This one isn't as strange, but its great anyway. I genuinely think 'french whispery voice' should be a genre of music.

GNOD - Stick in the Wheel
(rock, psych)
From the brilliantly titled 'Just Say No to the Psycho Right-Wing Capitalist Fascist Industrial Death Machine'.
GNOD are a local band for me, and are a collective that have been going for over 10 years gaining respect in the underground scene for their amazing live shows.
Their music ranges from weird electronic ambient albums to krautrock influenced psychedelia, but this album is a bit more straight up. Any chance to plug them I will because they are amazingly talented and also lovely people.

Daughters - The Lord's Song
(noise rock)
Amazing heavy noise rock. Anguished, rage filled vocals, heavy riffs and great production and song structures make these guys stand out from the crowd.
It sounds oppressive and nightmarish.

Alice Coltrane - Journey In Satchidananda
(jaaaaaaaazzzzzzzz)
Alice Coltrane is amazing. She was a jazz harpist, something you don't see too often, and first wife of the legend John Coltrane. Her jazz was focused on spirituality and often had a euphoric, psychedelic feel to it. Its experimental even for jazz, and can be a difficult listen, but there are moments of real joy scattered throughout it - and I'm not what you call a jazz music fan.

I'll probably edit this and add more as I think of more.
