    live albums

    Coil live is essential. Some of their best albums are live renditions. JB goes from being a shy presence on stage into a force of nature. Talk Talk - Live in Montreux is a perfect encapsulation of their middle period and Hollis is intense. Japan - Oil on Canvas contains beautiful...

    Experimental singer-songwriter

    Bobb Trimble is great at this. His two 80s albums are essential.

    The Act of Killing (2012)
