| 5 Xtreme Pieces Of Music For Your Pleasure
In which some of my favorite XTREME pieces of music are listed for your pleasure :D | | 1 |  | Swans
Cop
Having realized that their debut album, Filth, had actually semi-normal drum beats,
Michael Gira pushed his "hit things till your ears bleed" formula to its breaking point.
Cop is a furious and barely listenable 40 minutes of mind numbing madness | | 2 |  | White Suns
Totem
Probably the newest album on this list, Totem is a blistering album of absolute
insanity. The guitar riffs are feed back and distorted to level that almost sound like
glitch music, but the pounding drums and screeched vocals give it a definite punk
vibe. Check this one out, it will not disappoint | | 3 |  | Autechre
Exai
Ever wanted to hear your PC get it on with various electrical powered objects
around your house? Look no further, Autechre has the album for you!!! Bleepy and
bloopy to a fault, this bad boy of glitch and electronica goes for two hours and is
sure to test even the most arrogant hipsters patience. Check this baby out if
you're want some crazy and abstract IDM | | 4 |  | Merzbow
Pulse Demon
Let me tell you now, this stuff is not for the faint of heart. No melodies, chords,
rhythms, just TV static cranked to maximum, ear bleeding insanity. Music to be
appreciated from a distant, not necessarily enjoyed | | 5 |  | Igor Stravinsky
Le Sacre du printemps
Probably the first truly EXTREME piece of music, Rite of Spring still sounds head scratchingly insane to this day. the crazy off
rhythms, multiple key signatures, and jarring transitions actually sparked a riot when it debuted in Paris (a feat that is still
pretty admirable by a punk standard). Definitely takes a few listens, but is a very rewarding in the end. | |

07.20.14 | Thanks, man! Rite of Spring is kinda the thing that got the ball rolling as far as insane dissonant music is concerned. If even if you don't like it its still good to listen to just for the history :) | conesmoke

@SaneTBP - Yeah, I've got a real soft spot for Classical music, my dad made me listen to Bach all the time when I was little, can't thank him enough :D Check out totem, its pretty crazy :) | pyroflare77
07.20.14 | 5 is the best thing ever | AtlastheGreat
07.21.14 | @Pyroflare77 - Isn't it though? Its awesome how many people are familiar with it (a lot more than I thought there would be) :D | Skull917
07.21.14 | The rite of spring is one of the most widely known classical pieces, so it makes sense.
Also If you are really fond of classical music I've compiled here some pretty good works: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDql_Y6ISXUGetapeQ0URmBU3b12MZqtN | AmericanFlagAsh
07.21.14 | Try The Residents early stuff | AtlastheGreat
07.21.14 | @Skull917 - True, but Sputnik just didn't seem like a super classically minded community, but hey! you never know! :D Checked out the playlist, big fan of the stockhausen and Pyiouasfysdfa (that polish guy that Jonny Greenwood likes :D).
@AmericanFlagAsh - Gonna check it out pronto | BMDrummer
