Can we add The Residents and Laibach?  Tom Waits & "The Earth Died Screaming" is always good at weddings.

And that was from one of their "mainstream" albums.  For true weirdness, dig back through albums like  Hairway To Steven and Psychic... Powerless... Another Mans Sac.

Also check out their homeboys Crust, who played the same kinda stuff only a little more dark and disturbing.



That would be simply too strange for the thread. We dare not delve that deep.

Obviously, nobody can have your depth. Nobody can possibly get your reference. Except, of course, anyone who has ever listened to the nationally syndicated Dr. Demento radio show, which ran for nearly 20 years in every major market in the U.S.
 
AND I know that the Dr did indeed play Spike Milligan! And the OP did not specify rock music or Dark Elf music!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

The OP didn't specify you should belittle the rest of the posters with your myopic opinions either. Just pointing out that, once again, you think way too much of yourself. Like Narcissus with grammatical issues.

Ken Nordine!
 
He put out an album called 'Colors' that was just 30 songs like this.  Hysterically weird.

^ Clap "Why do you think you're being investigated?"  That album he did with the lone door on the cover.  Blue Thumb records, I believe.  Wonderful.  A true beat original.

Thank you Sir, I think I was doing a search on songs named 'gold' and came across him.  Delightfully odd.

Schoenberg - Pierrot Lunaire (any of it and all of it)
Gentle Giant - Knots
Chou Pahrot - the Random Shoggy
Ivor Cutler - I Believe in Bugs
Crazy World of Arthur Brown - Spontaneous Apple Creation
Fall - Hip Priest
Tom Verlaine - Yonki Time
PIL - Tie Me to the Length of That

Oh, I gave all that up when I quit Catholicism. One could say I kicked the habit. Evil Smile
