Most inaccessible albums/artists ever (lyrics, hardcore, house, jazz)

I can't get into The Used, no matter how hard I try. Their music is boring, repetetive, and just downright sh!tty. The only song I find maybe somewhat likeable is The Bird And The Worm.

Give Trey Anastasio's Surrender to the Air album a whirl and see if you don't walk away feeling like you have a hangover. It's an entire album of a large group of diverse musicians "improvising chaos", for a lack of a better way of putting it. Still, it IS brilliant.

Merzbow is an obvious one, but there's also funeral doom like Senthil and Wormphlegm.

Come on guys, you're disapointing me. The Doors? Bjork? AC/DC?

Someone's not trying hard enough.

A few other cantidates:

Pauline Oliveros- A Little Noise In The System

Ryoji Ikeda- One Minute

People actually listen to this?

Muzak · 07-21-2008, 02:55 PM

besides the vocals, I find that very accessible, especially for grindcore.

That dude fucking destroyed a perfectly beautiful Telecaster! He should be shot, not listened to.

I'm sure that was insane back in the day but that just sounds like a Sonic Youth outro to me.
