Skywave - Synthstatic: Probably the best shoegazer album in the past 10 years. 6 parts Jesus and Mary Chain, 4 parts My Bloody Valentine and cranked to 11. Definitely one of the loudest things I've ever heard, incredibly jarring with really cathcy melodies beneath layers and layers of electronic fuzz.
Disco Inferno - whole damn catalog: Early 90s British band retroactively classified as post rock. Noticable Joy Division influence but if you've never heard DI, you really haven't heard anything like them. Bizarre samples, deppressing/creepy vocals. Sometimes light and airy othertimes gloomy and oppressive sounding.
I unfortunately missed seeing Hair Police but made it to the Sonic Youth show in time to see Wolf Eyes. It was funny seeing SY fans scratching their heads and furrowing their brows in a vain attempt to grasp them.
