        They should have him in as a full member. Imagine the kind of shit they'd write?

Repeating what some other people have said..

All of Steve Albini's output; Shellac, Big Black, Rapeman.
Other Stuff from the 80s and 90s - Scratch Acid, The Jesus Lizard, Cows, Polvo, Butthole Surfers, Unwound, Harry Pussy, Flipper, Live Skull, Melvins..

Maybe going a bit too far off your original bans but all worth checking out,

Bookshelf | 14 Sep '12, 13:05 | X | ^ This | Reply
- a lot of this stuff is good
  
  definitely recommend Flipper, Cows, Melvins and Butthole Surfers
  
  Harry Pussy is good as well, but quite different

Hawk Eyes, but their more metal and wacky sounding.

We Are Knuckle Dragger - really messed up noisy bass-driven rock.

Baby Godzilla - same party WOOOOHH YEAAHH! of PABH, but more Refused-style punk rock.

No one has mentioned but fitting into the whole noise rock thing

is Sonic Youth's Dirty. It was too square for the average no-wave goatee stroking hipster, but it's actually a lot of fun. And freaking intense as well. Bands don't sound like this anymore

Surprised to have found no mention yet of:

Penthouse (gutter erotica is their best);
Eighties matchbox b-line disaster (horse of the dog); and
Gallon drunk (You, the night ... And the music).

The three albums i mention are probably in my top 50 albums of all time. As are 'do Dallas', 'travels ...' and (maybe at a push) pabh's S/t.

Trying to go through this thread in some sort of illogical order

Listened to Reuben and Kong thus far (and a couple of odd tracks). Both, whilst different, are exactly what I was looking for!

Thanks - I'll check out the UK Kong

The description of the Dutch Kong sounds not bad:

"...unscrupulous musical collage melds elements of heavy metal, progressive rock, electronica, and the avant-garde -- all of it backed up by extensive sampling and quirky sound effects."

and could possibly also have fitted into this thread too.

Dublime returns this autumn, bringing Lee Scratch Perry, dEbruit, Channel One Sound System and more for a night of roots, reggae, and all things dub...
Dublime is back on Friday November 2nd, coming to Electric Brixton for a night of pure dub eclecticism. With a live set from dub legend Lee Scratch Perry and renowned musician dEbruit, as well as sets from Mikey Dread and Jah T’s Channel One Sound System, plus support from Rootsteady and Jonny Trunk, Dublime Presents... will be a celebration of dub, in all its forms.
Lee Scratch Perry performs alongside a live band. Promising a warm, bouncing set that cuts to the very core of dub culture. He’s a reggae pioneer – considered the godfather of dub, and a true advocate for expression and equality in music. Joining Lee Scratch Perry is celebrated musician dEbruit whose love of African rhythms and funk combine with his love of dub to create a dancefloor-friendly sound. He plays live, promising a rock-solid and confident set.
South London’s world-renowned Channel One Sound System also joins the Dublime party; Notting Hill Carnival veterans Mikey Dread and Jah T have played a major role in the spread of dub music throughout London, and their set will have the whole venue moving.
Support comes from Jonny Trunk of Trunk Records who has one of the largest library music record collections in the UK, and reggae selector Rootsteady, so expect a thorough exploration of dub, reggae and electronic music.
??????
Dublime first appeared at Fabric in 2004 as the first night to incorporate all mutations of the dub music genre. Using Lee Scratch Perry as the foundation of the night, promoter Hyponik programmed techno, jungle, reggae and dubstep around him, resulting in a sold-out event attended by people from many different walks of life. And now Dublime is back – this time coming to Brixton.
"Hyponik is delighted to be bringing back Dublime,” says Hyponik’s Matt V. “Especially coming to Brixton, which has seen many forms of dub over the years progress and evolve. We’re delighted to have the founder of dub music himself, Lee Scratch Perry.”
A stunning venue with a strong music history, Electric Brixton has had a big year since its relaunch and opening in September 2011. Having hosted events including Carl Cox: The Revolution, Cocoon Heroes and the South West Four after party, this stunning venue is a prime spot for Dublime, sure to showcase the D&B J Series sound system to thrilling effect.

Matt V continues: “The Electric Brixton provides the perfect auditorium for such a night and we hope to continue with the concept throughout 2013.”

Dublime presents a journey through music – a masterclass in dub, and a lesson in the history of bass culture and the future of electronic music. Come join the party!
