For Stars - Windows For Stars
Genre: Slowcore/Dreampop
Year: 1999

Well-played, atmospheric, and slow/sad as hell indie pop made all the more special by a vocalist whom you'll either love or hate.

Recommended If You Like: Red House Painters, Galaxie 500, Mazzy Star, Idaho, Mojave 3, and Luna.

Sample a few songs via Epitonic (Which is where i discovered these guys ten years ago, heyheyhey!).

Annexus Quam - Osmose
Genre: Krautrock
Year: 1970

Way out there melting pot of psychedelic rock and space jazz bliss. The two longer tracks are heaven.

Recommended If You Like: Pink Floyd, Can, Agitation Free, Kollektiv, Ash Ra Tempel, and Cosmic Jokers.

Low-Quality Sample...

[LegendofRock3021]

That For Stars album sounds lovely and this one should be great, I need to listen to more Krautrock. Also, "Turning Japanese" sounds like a sped up version of "Bombing of London".

[afterstasis]

necker better check that for stars album out... it's like pretty much everything he digs rolled up into one.

two albums today... hope you guys are keeping up!

Minotauri - Self Titled
Genre: Doom Metal
Year: 2004

Top-shelf slab of traditional doom metal with a heavier than usual nod to NWOBHM. I've read complaints about the crooning vocalist, but I love him!

Recommended If You Like: Witchfinder General, Reverend Bizarre, Pentagram, Trouble, Pagan Altar, and Cirith Ungol.

Sample via one pitiful low-quality youtube link.

Luciano Cilio - Dialoghi Del Presente (Reissued as Dell'Universo Assente)
Genre: Contemporary Classical/Minimalism
Year: 1977

The original release of this album features some of the most beautiful and emotionally stirring classical music ever recorded.
The recent reissue adds his lesser (but still certainly good) recordings, which are more minimal and droning.

Recommended If You Like: John Cage, Morton Feldman, Edgard Varèse, La Monte Young, Harry Partch, and Giacinto Scelsi.

Sample via soundohm.
