This is my nomination. I don't listen to a whole lot of experimental/avant-garde music but I really like this album.

Here's what wikipedia say about this guy:

Well... yea, album clubs don't just happen once. It's continual.

Oh, right I see now. I thought we dropped the other album.

Golem is this week's winner. We'll begin discussion of it next Monday (seriously excited about this one. I listed to a few songs on Youtube and was amazed).
