^ They've changed vocalists on at least three separate occasions, so that probably hasn't helped.

27. Tropical Fuck Storm - A Laughing Death In Meatspace


Genre(s): Avant-garde Post-Punk Space Blues

Sounds Like: The Drones, The Fall, Hawkwind, Sonic Youth, Monster Magnet, Kyuss (and quite a few others)


Whilst I dunno if these guys are technically a "supergroup" per-se, I can most definitely express my surprise just how much I revisited their debut album throughout the year. It's noisy, strange yet just indubitably enjoyable to take in a sitting- I get that engrossing feelings similar to watching a particularly interesting set of cloud patterns or a deep space documentary. Besides that killer album cover, it also has an undeniable near-but-not-quite-dance pop sensibility on cuts like the movin' n groovin' 'The Future Of History' or the sinuous, Bowie-esque 'Chameleon Paint'. Little diversions like that really add up to a sense of replayability for me...a twisted but intriguing tapestry with blistering energy to spare for a cold, listless day.
