Art-House / Industrial / Punk-ish Rock
Music that is either Visceral, Schizo-Poetic, or deliberately Borderline-Psychotic.
		Music as Catharsis.
Title			Format	Year	Nationality	Notes
The Clash		Black Market Clash	EP	1980	Britain	Politically-conscious late 70's / early 80's Punk.
Dixie Dregs		Dregs of the Earth	LP	1980	America	Somwhere between Jazz-Fusion, fancy-guitar Progressive Rock, and so-called "Sonic Art", with a hard edge.
Iggy Pop		Iggy & The Stooges: Raw Power	CD	1973	America	The world's only 56-year-old Punk. But still, he's probably at the peak of his talent today.
		Avenue B	CD	1999		On this album Iggy does Lounge-Jazz.
		Beat Em Up	CD	2001		On this album Iggy changes his mind and returns to his usual brand of howling, primal, Id-music.
Malcolm McLaren		Fans	LP	1984	Britain	Former manager of the Sex Pistols, this album is an odd mix of Opera and "Alternative Pop".
Plasmatics		New Hope for the Wretched	CD	1980	America	Visceral Schizo-Punk. Sort of the musical equivalent of glass shattering.
		Metal Priestess	CD	1981
The Pogues		Poguetry in Motion	LP	1986	Ireland & Britain	Socially conscious, Irish Folk melodies filtered through catchy English working-class Punk-ish rock.
The Ramones		The Ramones	CD	1976	America	A mix of New York "pop Punk" & light-hearted 1950's "Greaser" retro-rock. Punk with a fun, rather than angry, attitude.
		Road to Ruin	LP	1978
Lou Reed		Rock n Roll Animal	LP	1974	America	Former Andy Warhol house-musician, former androgynous heroin-Punk, former Avant-Garde New York Noise-maestro, currently a creator
						of New York "Thinking Man's Rock" and significant-other to Laurie Anderson. He belongs in a different category each decade.
The Residents		Our Finest Flowers	CD	1993	America	San Francisco Avant-Garde Minimalist-Surrealists, music that Salvador Dali would have approved of.
Patti Smith		Easter	LP	1978	America	The angry-young-woman poet/muse of Greenwich Village, though not so young anymore.
Swans		The Great Annihilator	CD	1995	America	Slow, dark "Post-Punk" that creates aural landscapes of doom and Angst. Scary New York Art-Punk.
Wendy O. Williams		WOW	LP	1984	America	Angry blue mohawk. She was the singer for the Plasmatics, before passing away in 1998.
Frank Zappa		Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar   ( All instrumental electric-guitar music )	LP	1981	America	Somewhere between Jazz-Fusion, "Progressive Big Band", and so-called "Freak-Out" rock, with a heavy mix of social & political sarcasm.
