This "5 Albums to get you into... " series is pure KZbin gem. Thank you for your work Oliver.

[@ogabugabedj1977]

Oliver the goat 💪😤

[@shanecoopershow]

FACTS

[@LK-428]

I love your pfp Draft is so good

[@violetaisling]

seeing "Contort Yourself" live as a 17 year old (when Chance briefly reunited the band for a couple of tours) was one of the defining moments of my adolescence

[@deepcuts]

That’s amazing, I’m incredibly jealous

[@melocomanTV]

Wait did you see him with Ex Models at Trans Pecos? Both were fucking legendary. And Ex Models belongs in this video even if it's a different century... carried on the No Wave spirit but kept inventing.

[@JohnMoseley]

@@melocomanTV Surely the legacy of no wave is another video.

[@melocomanTV]

@@JohnMoseley legacy... tf are you talking about schizo

[@SimMaster]

I first heard Filth and thought it was some late 90s NIN copycat shit, but then I learned it came out in 1983.. how the hell isn't this album more recognized? there is literally nothing this dirty and heavy sounding from 1983.. it's monumental

[@GuysOfFilm]

Swans have been ahead of the curve from the start

[@protopaes]

check out throbbing ghistle

[@youtubeuserdan4017]

How the fuck do you come to the conclusion that Filth is some "90s NIN copycat shit". Genuinely. They don't even sound similar.

[@ilovecody7514]

No Wave has to be one of my favorite genres of all time. I really just love lightning in a bottle creativity and the act of pushing a sound with little to no intention of doing something in attempt to make something accessible.

[@minotaurmangum7911]

DNA on DNA is also worth checking out. Love the Branca pick. Personally have a hard time getting into early Swans. I prefer their 90s-00s albums.

[@chairsmissing]

DNA on DNA is the definitive DNA release, so glad I own it. Of course, being a Swans devotee, I own and love all their stuff but what baffles me most is that I still can't land an Ascension copy. Branca was like a God especially to bands like Swans and Sonic Youth and for good measure.

[@ejenplitobarces]

DNA on DNA is great!!! You should also try Confusion is Sex, by Sonic Youth

[@VCCassidy]

Terrific video. You really do your homework. I would quibble though when you say No Wave wasn't inspired by many other existing bands outside Suicide. I think Captain Beefheart was a huge influence on James Chance and I think Velvet Underground's earlier, noisier jams on White Light White Heat and the Warhol record were very inspirational to that scene.

[@deepcuts]

Some good points there Cassidy. I suppose I meant that there was no direct influences, but of course bands like Beefheart and VU would have been a huge influence to so many artists

[@mattchew420]

I appreciate this series so much.

[@jamesdfd2001]

Crazy how this was released just a few weeks before Glenn Branca passed away. Thanks for introducing us to him. It's sad he wasn't more well known

[@ripplewine6112]

I hope you're still producing material. You are the best on KZbin in my opinion and remain a crucial historian. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. It's means a lot that you get it.

[@bradclacy3]

Nice list. I would have added Rosa Yemen or Lizzy Mercier Descloux’s debut album instead of Swans not only to show that no wave also occurred outside of America (in France in this instance), but also as they were playing during the exact same late 70’s period and are a much more typical no wave example.

[@sovietbby8401]

Thank you for all your hard work for giving us this! I appreciate it!

[@nicoufeizi1261]

Isa AYYYYY

[@deepcuts]

You're welcome, thanks for watching the videos!

[@deadattwenty7]

Also check out Sonic Youth's first E.P. released in 1981 which was heavily inspired by no wave.

[@pootman784]

Oh yes, It was my first time listening to it on spotify a few days ago...Sounds fantastic.

[@ejenplitobarces]

I love it!! Maybe it's the easiest no wave album to get into (in a good way)

[@dollarsaurus01]

Came to this video after listening to Evol, never knew they started out as no wave

[@Avalyn_Wu]

Loving the new design.

[@monowavy]

I dislike being the plant being off center

[@deepcuts]

If the plant was centred it would be behind me though

[@monowavy]

deep cuts true, I might have to come in terms with my ocdness

[@thegoodkidboy7726]

Teenage Jesus and the Jerks hit hard. I finally found music that scared me. Thank you.

[@SheperdsLittleHelper]

Interestingly, The Ascension was one of David Bowie's all-time favourite albums.

[@davidtausiet]

Keep up this great content man. It’s unreal how many excellent stuff you put out weekly

[@randomcitizen3773]

its even smaller of a scene than one city, it was just 2 neighborhoods in 1 borough of that 1 city. great video. thank you.

[@LorcaLoca]

Nice to see more content that brings awareness to the hotbed of innovation that was No Wave

[@billpeel4408]

How about an intro to Dance-Punk? Probably my favourite genre, but it'd be great to get your opinion.

[@thevellocet]

Gang of Four - Entertainment ESG - Come away with ESG Liquid Liquid - Optimo The Rapture - Echoes Radio4 - Gotham

[@megaman13able]

Dance-Punk? Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well... xD

[@billpeel4408]

Daniel Martin Nice. Love those GoF and The Rapture albums. I'd add. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever to Tell DFA1979 - You're a Woman... I'll have to check out some of the others.

[@hollywoodraptor0016]

Daniel Martin I'd say that The Faint - Wet From Birth Also belongs on there.

[@benomalley4824]

Great picks, I'd also recommend Lizzy Mercier Descloux's "Press Color". To me it sits somewhere between The Contortions and Talking Heads. Really fun, danceable, freaky, disco-ed out punk.

[@irayun5547]

speaking of lousiness, how 'bout 5 albums to get INDUSTRIAL

[@mantoslodge]

I second this

[@eduardosantillan3048]

I third this

[@Benesat]

Fourth. Of we get one more he has to do it. 5 votes for 5 albums.

[@twinkhon]

I fifth this

[@lisazoria2709]

Yes!

[@spicypickle4105]

Can you do 5 albums to get you into black metal?

[@leadelephante]

philosophem - burzum panzer - marduk bergtatt - ulver antichrist - gorgoroth self-titled - nyktalgia

[@joshuahartigan6828]

no mayhem or darkthrone is a huge mistake

[@jbal6956]

most music, you can tell which is the artist and which is the album, but uh... apparently not with black metal

[@leadelephante]

joshua hartigan he asked for the best. Mayhem is good but not the pinnacle of black metal...even if they started it. Darkthrone is good but again..not the best. The albums I listed are IMO the best representation of atmosphere and attitude of black metal

[@jaredmartin2471]

I'd go with: Bathory - Under the Sign of the Black Mark Darkthrone - Under a Funeral Moon Ulver - Bergtatt Emperor - Anthems to the Welkin at Dawn Dissection - Storm of the Lights Bane

[@tudormiller8898]

Yep! Sonic Youth. No Wave Idols. Watching from London.

[@stevendavid1749]

You've introduced me to James Chance and now I find myself interested in and enjoying jazz. Thanks dude.

[@FTrivews]

This seems like a good place to ask this question, does anyone else think that some of the most innovative but least talked about guitar work comes from bands who employ the duel lead style, bands like television, slint, women and even some stuff from the strokes, they are all so different but benifit so much from the duel lead stuff, just feel like people dont talk about it much

[@sucomecanico8843]

I could never really get no wave due to how rough things felt to me. However, I'm thankful that you've posted this video. Your videos always offer me a new vision in regards to a certain genre of music or a certain album, and I'm most definitely interested in checking these albums out now. Your videos are also stellar and I'd like to thank everything you've made. In my opinion, you're the best when it comes to music-related videos on KZbin, and your videos have had a great impact on me since 2016.

[@evilmushroom100]

Very nicely done. The Birthday Party led me to Teenage Jesus and then the rest of No Wave in general. Now one of my favorite genres. Films I would recommend in relation to No Wave are Blank City, Downtown 81, and My Uncle Howard. The thing about No Wave is that it wasn't just music, it was all forms of art encompassing each other.

[@LeroyIsMyBro]

Thank you! I have to go do finals in an hour but this will definitely be a treat for myself for completing it.

[@archiltsereteli3691]

Thanks for this, I've wanted to get into No Wave since I listened to David Bowie's star special on BBC. He played Helen Fordsale and blew my mind.

[@andrewcauvin9060]

Thanks so much for this. I've been wanting this since your Swans guide. Anyone interested in No Wave should check out the documentary Kill Your Idols.

[@gabeg1863]

[@runefinal]

Ooh, nice! I've been meaning to get into no-wave deeper for a while, thank you for the video! btw nice redesign

[@19Dfuck]

Is no wave supposed to be loved? Because I love it.

[@ejenplitobarces]

So do I

[@TractorCountdown]

I'll have to give my James Chance 'That's When Your Heartaches Begin' EP a spin to celebrate. Great stuff Oliver, as always, and a great move by Eno to capture the scene on that comp.

[@jamesguillorytheirascibleh585]

Filth is such a visionary album. Literally nothing else sounded like it, and it still sounds like nothing else in the world. It's terrible that it doesn't garner tremendous recognition and acclaim, but I have a theory on why that is. Back in 1983, hearing an album like Filth would have been the most confusing thing in the world. Almost no one knew what the hell to make of it. Is it rock? Punk? Metal? And how the fuck are we supposed to listen to it? I know that the first time I listened to it, I didn't get it at all. I was really confused as to what I was listening to. It's so heavy, angular, repetitive and squalid, and it has the bare minimum of structure. It's amorphous craft is why it predates many other innovators. This album single-handedly pioneered industrial metal, sludge metal, noise metal, experimental metal, grindcore, and even grunge. Industrial metal because it was 5 years before Godflesh and Ministry did it. Sludge metal because it was before the likes of Black Flag and Melvins. Noise metal because it was before Today is the Day. Experimental metal because it was 4 years before Celtic Frost released Into the Pandemonium. Grindcore because it predates the likes of Siege and Napalm Death. And grunge because it was before Green River released their debut EP in 1985. It's insane how groundbreaking Filth was and still is. It deserves all the credit and love that the world could possibly give it.

[@personarandom7579]

Yeah man, that album is so fucking underrated also Cop too, well, it's not only that, the whole Swans are a underrated band

[@ejenplitobarces]

Filth is such a weird yet amazing album :O

[@justsomejusstsome8994]

Listen to Streetcleaner by Godflesh

Totally agree. Greed and Holey Money too, whole discography is awesome.

[@demondofearth859]

No wave is sooooooo amazing. The raw emotion from the time period is unparalleled.

[@robertberardi1598]

Your descriptions are so evocative that by the end of the video I forgot that I didn't actually hear the songs.

[@KalebTheNerd]

Finally! I have been trying to get into No Wave but nobody could really point me towards anything. Thank You!

[@mauriciomalmanza]

Check out Erase Errata’s “Other Animals” and “At Crystal Palace”. Both great albums. That’s how I was introduced to No Wave. Sara Jaffe’s guitar playing was like a punch to the gut when I first saw them live.

[@Nell-r0se]

you're one of the few music KZbinrs that will talk about this kind of music, can't wait for the industrial episode

[@rileywebb9]

"The Spectacular Commodity" is one of the finest songs in the history of guitar music. An absolutely incredible piece of music, and you nailed it with the profound pay-off at the end. I recall doing the same thing, just listening to that song over and over upon first hearing it, and the catharsis that it possesses has never worn thin.

[@Trowa71]

This channel and Anthony Fantano compliment each other very well.

Awesome vid as usual! I would also throw in either Sonic Youth’s Confusion is Sex or Bad Moon Rising! No wave classics for sure👌🏼

[@ejenplitobarces]

True!! Those were the albums that made me love no wave

[@trevorjones8969]

Great video again, Oliver. Please do a Sonic Youth 'Deep Dive.' Cheers.

[@0427smn]

What about Lizzy Mercier Descloux's Press Color?

[@bananapuddingpop3867]

Listening to the Spotify playlist. This reminds me a lot of the second side (the art rock) side of the Alternative Tentacles release "Let Them Eat Jellybeans" . Reminds me of bands like Geza X and Half Japanese. Very cool.

[@fadingnebulous]

I love this "5 Albums to get you into... " series. It's phenomenal for those who adore music. Is there a page for "5 Albums to get you into Twee Pop" or "5 Albums to get you into New Jack Swing"?

[@torqueitup14]

Can you please put in snippets of the song. Most of the time I can never finish the video because you make the first album sound so interesting that I check them out before I finish the video

[@32mybelle]

He probably has copyright issues and isn't allowed.

[@1992AJL]

the coolest ever I think if you play less than 12 seconds it doesn’t register as copyright. But it’s always a risk.

[@deepcuts]

Yeah I've been asked this many times over the channel's history. In theory I could play 12 seconds but you never know if it's going to be safe or not. I couldn't bare to put all this work in, only to have videos taken down

[@monksdylan]

Love that you made a vid on this scene, this is the music that has influenced me the most and allowed me to open my eyes to pretty much any type of music that i find uncomfortable and challenging. Also on a side note Confusion is Sex by Sonic Youth I think should've been somewhere(or BMR).

[@deepcuts]

I appreciate that mate! I have a ko-fi page which you can donate to if you like

[@beef1000]

a notable non-record release is the movie downtown 81, which is very no wave centric but still offers a wider scope of how intertwined the scene was in new york, with the punk and new wave movements running close to no wave as well as the boom of new young artists like basquiat in manhattan.

[@stefanogortaldi3156]

I can hear a lot of Glenn Branca's sound in the Red Crayola's album "Soldier Talk" recorded a few years earlier - I'm confident he was influenced by this great and underrated texan band which was probably technically more advanced to be listed as No Wave (and the songs are more eclectic)...

[@lewisclarke4767]

Just as I was about to go to sleep, I see a new video by deep cuts in my sub feed, sleep can wait, also Oliver would love to hear your thoughts on suicides debut album or just them in general in the near future, such an influential pair making influential music

[@deepcuts]

I'll definitely talk about them at some point Lewis

[@Syncopator]

Some good choices, I bought the majority of them on vinyl back when they first came out and still have them, and also bought the CDs once they were available as well. I also recall that back in the day, I went to a theater that was showing what I think was billed as a "punk" collection of film shorts. Not sure what it was called, but I've looked for it since and haven't been able to find it again. It had a short by Contortions/James White & the blacks, that was a professional studio filmed segment of the later JW&B version of Contort Yourself-- it was amazingly great, I wish I could find it again...

[@accupunkture7935]

You are so awesome man these videos are highly educational and awesome

[@juliusebola9389]

Another great guide to this music and the art scene surrounding it is Jack Sargeant's book Deathtripping. I spent years following up all the threads in it and chasing down this or that artist, band, or filmmaker. I actually had to buy a second copy of it because the first was so worn out it fell apart.

[@dronehomeless]

The EP released prior to Filth has more of a No Wave aesthetic when considering the other bands on the list. For those interested, definitely check out that EP. It's good.

[@JohnMoseley]

Some of Swans sounds like The Birthday Party to me, and Lunch, of course, was friends with Nick Cave and they put out a record with her on one side and The Birthday Party on the other.

[@DammitBobby]

You should do a 5 albums to get you into UK Jazz.

[@SeanMRoberts]

Pretty solid list. I would have put the Boom in the night compilation from Bush Tetras in place of the swans record personally, but everyone’s list would be different anyway.

[@SInkiHui1997]

Love stuff like this! I like trying out new genres

[@evanphillips2126]

For anyone interested, the New Noise compilation by Souljazz records is a really eclectic set of tracks from this period

[@punybox]

Everyone forgets the Blue Humans and i find them really important, the bridge between no wave and free jazz!

[@billypilgrim1]

As an extra listen to Sonic Youth's first album/EP, I think it qualifies as No Wave

[@ejenplitobarces]

Confusion is Sex (their first studio album from 1983) is definitely a no wave album. The eponymous EP from 1981 is a more accessible version of the genre, some people say it has post-punk undertones. But I love both records ;)

[@jakewyeth8280]

New intro looking 👌

[@eduardosantillan3048]

An album that has always give me some No Wave vibes without been actually from that genre is Possession by God, a band with Justin Broadrick of Godflesh, Kevin Martin aka The Bug and some production from John Zorn (Naked City)

[@nikolademitri731]

I fucking LOVE “Buy”, and James Chance’s music in general, so yeah, I’m very glad, but completely unsurprised, to see that album here! The only other album I’m not surprised to see here is “Filth”, which I figured you’d include given your love for Swans (don’t get me wrong, it deserves to be here). This Glen Branca guy, I’ve never heard of, but it sounds extremely intriguing! Ten minute + no wave freak outs? Yes, please! I trust your judgement on this one, whether it’s actually no wave or not, so I’ll be tracking this down for sure. Thanks! The others two here I’ve not listened to, but I’ve heard of.. if I remember correctly, they were recommended to me by the same friend who turned me on to James Chance’s genius. Anyway, I’m definitely going to try to find that compilation on Spotify and/or iTunes before the sun sets since Eno has his fingerprints on that shit, and mark Teenage Jesus down as something to check out soon.. One band I half expected to see here was Sonic Youth, specifically the album “Bad Moon Rising”. I realize most of their music wasn’t true no wave, but their albums pre “Evol” were fully no wave. So, you didn’t include them here, but I’m guessing you’re a fan, yes? Will we ever get a video on the discography? PLEEEAAASSSEEEE?!?!? Anyway, thanks as always, Oliver! I’ve been waiting for this one for a long time, and it’s exceeded expectations and given me some unheard music to discover! ✌🏼🙏🏼

[@deepcuts]

Thanks for watching as always Nikola! I'll definitely be paying attention to Sonic Youth in some content soon, promise

[@nikolademitri731]

deep cuts Haha, you do you, boo. I was just joking with the Sonic Youth mania, but yeah, I’ll be looking forward to that. I’m VERY grateful to you for including Branca in that list btw. I found “The Ascension” on KZbin, and it’s absolutely amazing. Can’t believe that such a great album from the late 70s (a period of music that includes possibly the majority of my favorite albums) had gone under my radar, not to mention all the other great work I’ve found from him on Spotify. I look forward to immersing myself in his guitars. Thank you! 🙏🏼✌🏼

I have the compilation album "No Wave To Go," which is probably not No Wave... ...but the LP itself was physically visually stunning. I'm not aware of many LPs that have embedded photos / artwork. (I was googling that and ended up here.)

[@gazfunk]

No mention of Bill Laswell/Material/Massacre/Golden Palominos. I might have switched out Swans for something Laswell related.

[@FritchardCrandle]

Hey man! Awesome Video! Have you ever checked out the documentary "Kill Your Idols?" It used to be on Netflix... It's a fairly basic introduction to the No-Wave scene, but there's some pretty great footage in it as well.
