lately i've been listening to the new liars album over and over. right now i'm blasting some last exit- great improv free jazz-noise violence from bill laswell, peter brotzmann, sonny sharrock and ronald shannon jackson. if you can find any of their stuff (most of it's OOP), i recommend it. it's very brutal, heavy stuff.

Not noisy, but simplistic, raunchy and bluesy - Black Keys.

And I have to say I dig John Zorn.

Eddie Marcon.

It's the combined powers of Eddie from COA and Marcon from LSD March.

Sounds intriguing.
I met Masami from LSD March last year and he is a great guy and a great guitarist.
Gotta check this out!

Fuck, I missed seeing The Neptunes here in town last week. Damn you twenty-page sociology paper,may you spontaneously generate so that I don't have to write you.

meat + air = flies
grain + dark corner = mice
twenty blank pages + ??? = sociology paper

hmm...my equations have turned up nothing. sorry.

and WOW, that Neptune stuff is awesome. thanks.

ok, some awesome bands recommended here already, here are more:

-the goslings (great heavy sludge, ultra noisy production that helps the sound)
-ocean (sludgy metal)
-khanate (stephen o malley of sunn o)))'s other band)
-not american but boris, stuff like absolutego or amplifier worship
-dmbq (heavy psych rock n' roll)
-ruins (if you haven't checked out ruins, do so!!!)
-black metal like mayhem (de mysteriis dom sathanas) or darkthrone (transilvanian hunger, one of the heaviest albums ever made)
-if you can track anything by Aa (big a little a), then do so
-heavy electronica like venetian snares and pita are awesome
-coughs
-nightwounds
-white mice
-prurient
-kites
-hive mind
-fe-mail
-neurosis
-peter brötzmann
-dillinger escape plan
-converge
-john coltrane's stuff like interstellar space
-jesu
-godflesh
-enslaved

all pretty heavy and noisy (at different degrees of one, the other or both)

I just lent my ear to an album by the swedish-norwegian freejazz group The Thing. It's called Garage, and they make their own mind-blowing versions of garage-rock nuggets, like the Sonics - Have Love Will Travel, Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs - Art Star, and The White Stripes - Aluminium. And they make some own tunes. Mats Gustaffson on barriton and tenor sax, and the amazing Paal Nilsen-Love on drums. You better check it out.
