Strategies Against Architecture - The Avant Garde/Experimental Album Club

I will go for this:

Einsturzende Neubaten - Kollaps.
Early industrial is quite rightly attributed to bands like Throbbing Gristle amongst others but this album really gives definition to the term industrial and by it's very nature is highly experimental.

Electric drills, power tools and all manner of electric tomfoolery are present on their debut yet it is relatively well defined and cohesive and although it lacks finesse at times, it certainly makes up for it in invention.

Even if you end up not liking it, one cannot deny the originality and verve of it.
