I checked out AMM and it struck me as sitting somewhere between ambient/musique concrete and free jazz. Not my thing by any means, but nothing I heard struck me as weird or hard to get through either. That kind of thing feels familiar enough to me by now.
Galas admittedly used to feel more difficult for me but there's still a part of my brain that feels a bit weird about listening to it. It definitely pushes some buttons in my mind:

If there's anything I find really difficult about it it's only in terms of enduring it for a length of time. I'm listening to the album Pulse Demon right now and... it's definitely not something I'd ever put on other than to test my open mindedness and ability to sit through abrasive noise. There's enough noise in city life that I have no real use for this kind of thing. I feel like that in terms of distorted noise, there is nowhere left to go. We've already had stuff that virtually just sounds like white noise and screeching for years now. Where do you go from there?

I hate repetition, so that would probably drive me up the wall real fast
