Thanks, Stu. I actually remember looking into that album at some point (I recognize its cover), but I never got around to actually listening to it. The whole 'Residents meets Funkadelic' comment convinced me to look into it.

Mondo Bungle: Try Kazumoto Endo's While You Were Out (1999). Also, if you want to develop a better mindset when approaching noise music, then I recommend you read up a bit on John Cage's philosophy on enjoying and listening to sounds.

RVCA: Marquee Moon IS post-punk (I have no clue in why people say it's proto-punk... it's from 1977). Post-punk doesn't have a particular sound... nor is it real/true genre. When you refer to an album as "post-punk," you are basically saying its taking a more progressive approach to punk rock.

Anyways... I strongly suggest you look into a band called The Cardiacs... Both Sing to God (1995) and A Little Man and a House and the Whole World Window (1988) are excellent albums to start with.
