Hi everyone! |

04.02.18 | Hi!
As of Bjork definitely start with Debut. Post is also accesible but Debut even more |

that's unfortunate bro, their albums with the growls are by far their best, although the rest is also good |

04.02.18 | 2 - skeleton tree is the only thing thats grabbed me from cave but as someone who’s not really a fan my take is prob not worth anything
3 - not the hugest fan of circa survive but juturna is prob the best entry point
5 - yea moon and antarctica is definitely the best starting point. then work backwards, then work forwards
6 - start with takk
7 - either/or definitely |

04.02.18 | nick cave start with let love in, if you don't think that's genius don't even bother, that's his best record. |

04.02.18 | for newer Katatonia, I'd either start with Night is the New Day or Dead End Kings. I'd personally go with Dead End Kings. If you like those two, check out the latest one Fall of Hearts which is more of a grower, but quite good |

04.02.18 | 1. Bjork- listen to Debut (my favorite, has more trip hop elements in production) or Vespertine (very much more orchestral, experimental, etc... in production) and everything else from her will fall kinda in between
2. Skeleton tree was good but pretty different in overall vibe from earlier stuff. My favorites are The Firstborn Is Dead, Let Love In, and Henrys Dream
3. Blue Sky Noise
6. ( ) is the best but either will do |

04.02.18 | Björk - Chronologically, so start with Debut and go from there.
Circa Survive - Only know Blue Sky Noise so I can't say much about that, but I had no problems whatsoever getting into it. Very accessible and a fun listen.
Katatonia - Last Fair Deal Gone Down, I'd say. If you don't like it all that much, give Fall of Hearts a chance due to its more progressive sound. However, if you like it, you can go with pretty much anything between those two.
Sigur Ros - I'd recommend starting with Agaetis because of how instant it is, but ( ) is more "purely" Sigur Ros. Takk is also a must! |

04.02.18 | Any of their first three albums is a good start for Circa. On letting go was my first that I liked, its pretty guitar-based. Blue sky noise is probably their best. |
VaxXi
04.02.18 | Don't listen to any Circa Survive album after Blue Sky Noise |
Rolling Girl
04.02.18 | Stick with 4, I don't like harsh vox either and it's really melodic and prog-y |
Icebloom
04.02.18 | Thanks for the reactions everyone! Probably gonna check out Modest Mouse first. |

04.02.18 | @parksungjoon
Yeah sometimes I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of good music because I don't like harsh vocals...but they're just not my thing. Maybe they'll grow(l) on me in the future. |
Icebloom
04.02.18 | @rabidfish
Alright, I'll check that one first. |
Icebloom
04.02.18 | Katatonia seems to be the only division point here. I think I'm gonna listen to The Fall of Hearts first. |

04.02.18 | listen to Devouring Humanity's s/t |

04.02.18 | 1. IDK
2. Let Love In - I don't think his latest is a good starting point at all. He's got quite a range of style (though undeniably Cave) throughout his career, but I think this album will give you a good taste of what he has in him. Henry's Dream is my favorite, but its his rowdiest work.
3. Juturna - This is a band I always recommend listening to in chronological order. I think they peaked early, and some may disagree, but they definitely won't say Juturna sucks.
4. Brave Murder Day - Just get to the good stuff.
5. This is a Long Drive... - Another band I'd recommend checking chronologically.
6. IDK
7. Either/Or - Although, Figure 8 is my favorite. |

04.02.18 | @Sinternet
Damn, those picks are pretty different than the suggestions from the others.
@dbizzles
Thanks for the explanation on 2. Let Love In will hopefully make for a good entry into his (huge) discography. |
Demon of the Fall
04.03.18 | 1. Debut is a great starting point, I went chronologically
6. Kveikur or Takk, both are fairly accessible & still vintage Sigur Ros. Agaetis & ( ) are very much essential mind. Those 4 are easily their best records. |
