Try Radio Moscow. Not your traditional Blues rock. Brain Cycles is a fantastic album.

I counted up 30 recommendations of artists/albums for you. I expect that report up by the end of the night.

Yep, definitley liking Aesop Rock.

As for noise, I still see absolutely no concievable reason why anyone would go out of their way to listen to it. I'm sure there's something I'm not getting, but that's fine with me.

When you say "noise" are you talking about Merzbow-type noise?

Yes. I adore noise rock/punk/pop, but just noise? C'mon man.

i surmise nobody else listens to Afro-psyche?

Deathcore and Metalcore. I have yet to be rec'd an album or band in these genres that I find listenable.

That's because they basically suck. Besides old school metalcore like Converge and Integrity and stuff.

Check out See You Next Tuesday - Parasite. It's deathcore, but to me it sounds like grind with breakdowns. Rings of Saturn are ok too imo.
Lots of old metalcore is awesome, too.

Do you normally listen to heavy music? If you can't take screaming or heavy riffs then it'd be hard to recommend something you'd like.

If you can tolerate it, my suggestion would be to start with something more on the hardcore side of metalcore, like Converge's "Jane Doe", or Trap Them's "Darker Handcraft" (moreso crust/grind but close enough). Genghis Tron are another band worth looking out for too, they incorporate a lot of electronic music elements and have some great melodic moments mixed in with their spazzy metal sound.

I think, like anything, it can be done well or not done well. And I guess a lot of it depends on how you define it. For example, is this something you'd consider noise?
