I just got into Swans. Their albums "To be kind" or "Glowing man" are great, and it reminded me of "20 Jazz Junk Greats" by Throbbing Gristle. I wonder how many great experimental albums are there?

Here's a few of my favourite "weirder" albums:

Death Grips - The Money Store (Aggressive alternative hip hop/industrial)

Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavillion (Psychedelic folk/pop)

Clipping - CLPPNG (Alternative hip hop)

Daniel Johnston - Hi, How Are You? (Lofi pop/indie)

Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady (Jazz)

Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (Jazz)

Meshuggah - Catch 33 (Djent/Prog Metal/Extreme Metal)

John Frusciante - Niandra LaDes and Usually Just a T-Shirt (Experimental folk)

Black Country New Road - For the First Time (Prog rock/Post rock/sort of "Jazz" IDK)

Hope you find something you like!
