“Weird” to be interpreted at the reader’s discretion.
Looking for some cool new tunes.
I’ll get the ball rolling with one of mine: Scaretale by Nightwish. That song is all over the place… it’s like haunted fantasy carnival jingle metal. Love it.
My wife tells me I have “David Lynch taste in music,” and while that sounds like a compliment to me, she does not mean it to be one.
Kate Bush’s Suspended in Gaffa
Dresden Dolls’ Coin-Operated Boy
Peaches is awesome, she is a true musical artist.
Ween’s entire discography. Including the unreleased jingle they did for Domino’s.
Check out the following artists:
- Little Big
- Tommy Cash
- Salvatore Ganacci
- Oliver Tree
- Die Antwoord
- Venetian Snares
- Lonely Island
- John Lajoie
Huh, that’s a tough one. I have three whole playlists of increasingly weird stuff, so it’s hard to narrow it down to one. Maybe something by French TV or Henry Cow? I’ll have to listen through it later to find the stuff that barely counts as music.
Edit: yeah that’s a really tough one, I really like weird music. Here’s a sampler I guess, a few different varieties of “weird”:
Help, I’m a Rock - The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band
Kissing Toads Again - Jan Two-Sleeves
The Secret Life of Walter Riddle - French TV
Lime Jelly Grass - Renaldo & The Loaf
The World Of Genius Hans - Moving Gelatine Plates
Adagio Ma Non Troppo - Charles Mingus
Musique Mecanique I - The Carla Bley Band
Lick My Decals Off Baby - Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
I’ll Never Shed Another Tear - Stash Wyslouch
I’ve got a thing for avante-jazz.
Disco snails-
https://youtu.be/oAZBKlVSLkUThese songs were actually in the queue and I find them weird, but I’m pretty sure they are not OP is asking for…
Xenophobia - The Korgis
Seduction - Black Widow
but I’m pretty sure they are not OP is asking for…
“at the reader’s discretion” :D
I figure the odds of any one comment here aligning with my personal taste are pretty low; but the goal was to stick my head out of that bubble for a bit, and y’all have delivered! It’s been fun checking out everyone’s recommendations, even if they aren’t being added to my own playlists.
👊
Mr. Bungle, or most of Mike Patton’s discography, is hella weird.
My favorite has to be “My Ass is on Fire”. Trust me when I say it’s like a mad science experiment, made into a song.
The girls of porn want more!

I’m the Supervisor - Infected Mushroom
I honestly recommend everything from them if you’re looking for unique sound. The He.art album by Astrix also has some weird.
Enigma also has some great soundscapes. My personal favorite album is MCMX A.D.
This bluegrass band who covers pop music tunes called the Cleverlys, and their rendition of the song Low. Shawty got them apple bottomed jeans and the boots with the fur is hilarious with a banjo and stand up bass.
Poop in My Fingernails or really any song from that album. Makes putting Spotify on Shuffle All a real crap shoot.
El Chombo - Chaccaron https://youtu.be/MlW7T0SUH0E
Igorrr - Brutal swing https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua5N0cNnhYY
“When the spirit of war will rise above me” by Wojnar
Huun Huur Tu - Kombu
You guys aren’t that weird
This could be even weirder depending on your perspective
