Starting Points

<< < (2/7) > >>

TrueNeutral:
More starting points asked for:

Tom Waits
Mark Lanegan (outside of screaming trees as I already own everything I could find from them and downloaded the rest, plus I have his thingy with Isobell Campbell)

Kai:
If you're talking about Tom Wait's experimental work, get Rain Dogs. For the lounge music era, Alice or Closing Time are both very good.

Omnicide:
All you really need for Joy Division are Closer and Unknown Pleasures, if you dig on baritone self-pity.

As for the man Tom?

Rain Dogs- broadest spectrum of his styles.
Blue Valentines- best singer-songwriter work, plus Christmas Card From a Hooker will make you sob like a child.
Bone Machine- because it kicks 18 shades of arse.

Kai:
Oh, man, I forgot about Blue Valentines. Definitely get that.

ASturge:
With Sonic Youth it's best to start with the albums withs songs (Sister, Daydream Nation) , and then slowly move onto the Noise (NYC Ghosts and Flowers)
