Dead can Dance - Dionysus (2018) Full Album

 

- Anna Calvi - (Everything)

- Ray LaMontagne - Trouble (plus some singles)
- Mick Gordon - DOOM OST (2016)
- Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man - Out of Season

Definitely Radiohead. Everything else for me is bands that probably sold under 1,000 copies...

 

The amazing Floor Jansen with Nightwish, Showtime, Storytime, of course in the Wacken edition (my tip, Ghost Love Score 1:10:22)

My favourite growl dwarf Alissa White-Gluz with Arch Enemy, Will to Power (my tip, The Eagle Flies Alone 13:23)

Slipknot, All hope is Gone (my tip, Sulfur et seqq 7:50)

 

Off the top of my head :

Aesop Rock - The Impossible Kid

Gorillaz - Plastic Beach

Shpongle - Nothing Lasts... But Nothing is Lost

Radiohead - every album

The Flaming Lips - American Head

St. Vincent - Daddy's Home

King Gizz - Flying Microtonal Banana

Nicolas Godin - Concrete and Glass

Blur - The Magic Whip

Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders and LSO - Promises

The Flashbulb - Nothing is Real

Evan Marc & Steve Hillage - Dreamtime Submersible

Honestly there are probably a billion more. The amount of quality music that has come out in the last 20 years is INSANE.

 

Felix Laband - Dark Days Exit.

 

Gojira - From Mars to Sirius (although pretty much every album they've released I've loved)

The Haunted - Made Me Do It & One Kill Wonder

 

In no particular order

HAIM - Days Are Gone (except one song) but nothing else from them since.

Gunship - Dark All Day

Survive - RR7349 & mnq026

Dead When I Found Her - Harm's Way, All The Way Down & Eyes On Backwards

Tesseract - Sonder

The Midnight - Endless Summer & Kids but also these two EPs: Days of Thunder & Horror Show

A Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms & Thirteenth Step

Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Sunset Mission

Gojira - The Way of All Flesh

Katatonia - Viva Emptiness & The Great Cold Distance

Hmmm, 16 albums and two EPs in 23 years. Honestly I thought it would be a lot less. Before 2k, that would be a stupid long list.

Of course this doesn't count a lot of songs I like spread out among different artist/bands/groups.
