Re: OT: Music suggestions?

I somehow came across nono and messiaen last night. I downloaded some stuff, but have not listened yet.

Btw, I am familiar with most of the "post-rock" stuff listed. I was also told to check out, "Les Rallizes Dénudés." A Japanese noise/proto-shoegaze band. HOLY SHIT. 

I'm deep in a proto-goth hole right now.

Really, just looking for any bands that were waaaayyy ahead of their time, or helped lay the groundwork for new genres.

I am definitely checking out everything that you guys recommend. This has been a huge music history lesson for me.

True!  I should have added Mogwai.  They do the whole quiet-quiet-LOUD!!! thing better than anyone.  I saw them live last year and you could actually feel the wall of sound

May I add Anton Bruckner, Richard Wagner, Olivier Messiaen and Luigi Nono? While they don't use the same wattage, experiencing e.g. the 12-trumpets/8-horns section after a pianissimo passage in the orchestral pit in Bayreuth in Lohengrin is a full-body experience as well.
