I just got into Swans. Their albums "To be kind" or "Glowing man" are great, and it reminded me of "20 Jazz Junk Greats" by Throbbing Gristle. I wonder how many great experimental albums are there?

Heh, not to disappoint you, but that's some of Swans' newest music. Their discography goes back to '83. Killing for Company off of The Great Annihilator (1995) is my favorite song of theirs. Then again, I haven't listened to To Be Kind & Glowing Man, so I'll have to check those out.

To get this one out of the way, The Caretaker - Everywhere At The End Of Time.

My personal recommendation would be Kayo Dot. Here's their album Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue.

Dowsing Anemone is great, I'll dig some more Kayo Dot now! Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, you're right. I checked their bandcamp page and assumed these albums were earliest. I'll edit it now.
