Shit worth listening to (before the whole industry was co-opted with crap music), in no particular order because I'm too lazy to use Word to alpha sort this, just going to type:

Gang of Four (particularly the album Entertainment!)

The Clash: London Calling and Sandinista!

Neu II (second album by Neu)

Can

Faust

Rage Against the Machine

Ramstein (that heavy German band)

The Minutemen

Joy Division: Unknown Pleasures

Hawkwind: In Search of Space

Live/Dead and Skeleton & Roses (when Pigpen was still in the band)

Black Sabbath: Masters of Reality

Earth

Sunn O (I forget how to spell it)

Om

This Heat

Sex Pistols

PiL (Second Edition)

Starless and Bible Black (deranged but taut King Crimson)

Chris Whitley (artist that big labels wanted to sign, and he said, "No, I'd rather do heroin")

Bless Its Little Pointed Head (an album title referring to penises! one of the few decently mixed Jefferson Airplane albums)

Soundgarden: Superunknown

Boris (you want the heavy albums, not the ambient ones; do some research)

The Boredoms (pretty much any album will fuck up your mind)

Flipper (the yellow cover)

Butthole Surfers

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart (the one and only masterpiece)

Captain Beyond (1st album), killer band signed to the Allman Bros label that no one's ever heard of

Carcas: Symphonies of Sickness

anything by Clutch

Dub Trio: Another Sound is Dying

Fleetwood Mac: Then Play On (a beautiful, soulful, awesome record before the scum Buckingham and Nicks joined; DON'T buy the "extending version" with the two extra tracks by Danny Kirwan; DO make sure you get the version with Oh, Well parts One AND Two)

Fugazi

Future of the Left: Curses and Travels With Myself and Another (they have good videos on YouTube, too)

Jade Warrior: Last Autumn's Dream (another forgotten masterpiece)

there's more but it's time for lunch

now maybe some Jews were involved in making some of this music, I don't know; I suspect someone will say so, if true

I like stoner rock, which sounds like all about hippy shit from the name but is really just heavy heavy rock
