I haven't nominated something in a while, so... here it goes.



Phonography (1976) by R. Stevie Moore

I've recently discovered this guy's music, and I have to say that it's pretty interesting. Essentially, this is an early lo-fi album by a talented outsider musician who held a lot of influence in the creation of indie rock. It has psychedelia, experimentation, electronics, samples, weird vocals, etc. It's extremely unique, and there really wasn't much music like it at the time. I guess you could say that this album was an early stage in the evolution of indie and alternative rock.

The Drones - Wait Long By the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By



Great, raw rock album by Aussie band The Drones. Not sure if they are well known in the states but well worth a listen.

Eh, if it doesn't, then I'm sure you can just listen to the tracks on Youtube. Also, thank you for resetting and editing the polls.

Well, I've heard it of course, but I wanted to have my memory refreshed before I spoke about it, haha.

And welcome.

Alright... since we have a tie, let's just go with the Women album since it's been up there for a while.
