Default Glenn Branca

No-wave composer? Post-minimalist? Atonal industrial symphonist? Is symphonist even a word? Who knows... all I know is that Glenn Branca's compositions are mind-numbing and out of this world. I especially recommend The Ascension, swarms of guitars twist and convolve around tribal drum and bass. Stravinsky with electric guitars, if you will. I really don't know why his music doesn't get more attention, it's pretty incredible if you ask me.

Some of his stuff is excellent. It's the sound of the apocolypse, man.

Rhys Chatham is also great, and similar.

Not his best. But I went for the least number of songs to download over quality.
