Devin Townsend - Ocean Machine: Biomech (1998)



Genre: Progressive Metal

One of my favorite albums of all time. Devin Townsend's magnum opus. Must be heard before you die.

夢中夢 (Muchuumu) - イリヤ - il y a (2008)



Genre: Avant-Garde Post-Rock

Excellent Post-Rock with Japan with Electronica/Glitch elements and beautiful Opera-ish vocals. There's even some BM sounding vocals and drums buried in the mix.
