I prefer Diamond Terrifier's (Sam Hillmer's solo project) first album "Kill the Self That Wants to Kill Yourself" to most of Zs's material. DT's new album "The Subtle Body Wears a Shadow" doesn't quite hold up to Arms or New Slaves, though.

Also, Maurizio Bianchi's "Symphony for a Genocide" is one of my favourite harsh noise records and I feel that it surpasses his work with Whitehouse. In these two cases, the original band and solo project are both great, I'd say.
