isis is a very good band, i'm just not that into them. i dig some isis, but not enough to buy their records... i have heard all of them, though..
i haven't heard many of the young gods' songs, and i haven't heard any from this album.
i didn't mean to condemn the rest of the list with my lack of *, but i couldn't necessarily rate them without having heard them...

I approve wholeheartedly of Ruins, and most other bands that have put stuff out on Ipecac. Kaada kicks ass too, in a weird way.

I like Tzomborgha a lot, but I haven't heard all their stuff. I have that one and Symphonica and I've heard one or two others but I think that is their most solid effort. It's so complicated and bizarre and awesome. "Two thumbs up...way up!"

to be fair, i haven't hear that much of the ruins. but what i've heard was just too prog-rock-y for my taste. i'm sure they're a good band, probably just not my style.

Theres a 60s band called (the?) Silver Apples who are amazing... for about a year I thought they were a 90s band until I was informed otherwise. Totally ahead of their time.

Very cool, Danny Taylor's drums definitely sound utterly modern. He's a tricky one. They're pretty much a one trick pony, but it's an awesome trick.
Lothar and the Hand People- crazy psychedelic shit that lives up to their name, weirdness-wise... pretty ahead of their time with some of their goofy production techniques.

Wooden Wand and Vanishing Voice... more sweet esoteric folk with odd instrumentation and really messed up half-spoken vocals... this one comes highly recommended...
here's the promoey type thing which is basically the only write-up that i can find for their awesome album XIAO at this point...
"Wooden Wand & the Vanishing Voice comprises ex-members of folk / psych space cadets of the Golden Calves / Polyamory axis, plus a host of other rebels, freaks and prophets, all so deeply affected it’s as if Jesus himself had reached his hand down the front of their pants. ‘Xiao’ is laid thick with the musik fur alle vibes; they seek alternative, primarily non-electric methods of melting down orange amplification, leaving everyone trippin’ / slippin’ in the resulting goo. Expect many things bowed and plucked and wet cardboard percussion, providing the backdrop for Wooden Wand to sermonize on the evils of fluoride and read the poetry of anonymous inner city hoods. Death to the prosaic punks! ‘Xiao’ will appeal to all hippies interested in Apache / Inca, Limbus, Siloah, Angise Maclise, Vibracathedral Orchestra, THE master QSH, sperm, Joe Jones, NNCK, etc. Georgeous full color covers with liner notes by Thurston Moore"
did i mention that if you want any of this stuff i recommend you should try finding me on slsk?

Bulbul: "Drabule" is fucking nice! Listening to the 12" right now and it rocks!
"News from Europe's slowest beefmetal trashgroup.
4 track 12" featuring a Sluta Leta cover in their typical zombie garbage rottenrock style. Hear Ronnie Peterson play the Jew's harp whilst driving backwards in Monte Carlo, or Django Reinhardt at the fountain of youth with his ankles caked in mud. Crawl through the sewage system of dub beneath Marlon Brando babbling in your ear with a heavy nightingale's tongue. And, if you manage to get out of this there'll be a squadron of helicopters waiting to fall on your head one after the other.
Abule, Zwabule, Drabule."

i find it surprising no one has mentioned modest mouse (the moon and antarctica), or built to spill (keep it like a secret), or broken social scene (you forgot it in people), or spiritualized (ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space) or even blur (13) or the decemberists (her majesty the decemberists), or i dunno.

"Ladies and gentleman we are floating in space" is a very good album. Later blur are alright too, although i like "blur" more than "13".

Der Blutharsch, but I don't know if they'd qualify as rock. I guess they're as much rock as a few of the oddities in this topic. At a certain point of weirdness, the borders are smudgy. Maybe they're too orchestral, and there's not enough cowbell.

some more psych-folk from back in the day:
Comus (in particular, the album First Utterance is quite lovely)
oh and some creepy shit too:
Mnemonists aka Biota
check out the album Horde... it's from 1981... similar to something like Nurse With Wound or Coil... very beautifulscaryetcetera...the last track, Triptych, absolutely blows my mind...

and furthermore... you should check out Tower Recordings
which includes PG Six alongside Matt Valentine, Helen Rush, Dean Roberts, Tim Barnes and others... including Samara Lubelski... who is on the verge of dropping a very beautiful full length album of her own... keep your ear to the ground and you might get to hear her beautiful voice...
Tower Recordings is a mix of lo-fi psychedelic experimentation and beautiful, at times minimalistic, song writing... check check
Furniture Music For Evening Shuttles ... one of their fine albums...
