I love Amon Tobin but he's not Canadian.
You can't go into Skinny Puppy expecting Ministry, it's a totally different animal. In a lot of ways I wouldn't even classify them as the same type of music. Ministry is largely about aggression. Skinny Puppy isn't, they're more about just sounding f
ucked up and kind of abstract. If you've never heard
Last Rights or
Too Dark Park I'd recommend checking out one or both of them. I think their noisier, more experimental style of music on those albums might appeal to you.
What can I say about Leonard Cohen? If you don't like him, you don't. But if you've never heard
Songs of Love and Hate you may want to give it a listen before you completely rule him out.
