[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5338996, member: 19675"] Well, weird is in the ear of the...umm..."behearer." For something unsettling like the scenario you described, my first instinct would be to go for early (pre-1978) Tangerine Dream. Some of those albums could best be described as acid-influenced electronica. You might also check out the compositions of Glen Branca. For a more "rock" take on things, check out Helios Creed and Buckethead. HC tends towards heavily distorted vocals and highly processed guitar for a unique take on "space rock.". Buckethead, OTOH, has a much cleaner sound, and with his intensely fast picking and taste for dissonance, some of his stuff sounds like the vocalizations of insectile aliens. An amazing artist in his own right, occasional Buckethead collaborator bass-player Bill Laswell has decades of music in a variety of styles under various names. In particular, his album Doom Ride (under the name Chaos Face) would probably suit your needs, as would some of his stuff as Praxis (w/Buckethead). Laswell's work with other bass players Jah Wobble and Bootsy Collins would also work, especially Bootsy's Lord of the Harvest (as Zillatron). Finally, I'd check out drone bands like Earth or Sunn O))). [/QUOTE]
