The Ascension is mind blowing. I'm in the process of getting anything else by him I can.

I got around to listening to The Ascension last night and it was fantastic. Any other recommendations?

I can sort that for you. I recently got it and liked it. Needs a few more listens though and as already stated Rhys Chatham is similar too.

Thanks. I am listening for the first time as I type. I see that this was released in 1981. If I had heard it then I would have considered it like nothing that I had heard before. It is easy to see how Sonic Youth, for example, where influenced by this style of experimental and guitar. I always find my self harking back to the minimalist movement with this style of music. Though appealing to rock fans there is something that leads to it being composition in structure as opposed to just a written song if that makes sense.

Rhys Chatham is a name I am not familiar with but will be exploring.
