Looking for more stuff in a similar vein to I Monster's Neveroddoreven (specifically the original release), The Sound Defects' The Iron Horse, DJ Shadow's Endtroducing..., Black Moth Super Rainbow's Dandelion Gum, Miracle Musical's Hawaii Part II.

I know it mostly falls under trip-hop, synth-pop, and psych rock, but I'm looking for that "forbidden transmission from another dimension" vibe, if that makes any sense.

Amon Tobin's Foley Room, ISAM, and Dark Jovian. He used to release live full shows for free on his website as well, and I remember a lot of them being harsh, dark, bizarre, and ominous.

Thanks for the recs. More literally otherworldly than I was expecting but I'm certainly not complaining.

That leaves it wide open to interpretation and none of these are probably what you're looking for but that prompt me me think of Esham, Death Grips, and Lola's Pocket PC / Sputnik. Those are all different from each other so if one doesn't do it for you maybe another will.

Another option: Shostakovich - The Nose. A Russian opera where the music is like, I don't know, two circus calliopes playing simultaneously?

Hey man, just wanted to tell you that Fran gave me control of the October Challenge and the first thing I did was put a Rob Zombie Challenge in there(20th Anniversary of 1000 Corpses release). Thought you might get a kick out of hearing that.

Anyway hope all is well, enjoy the season!

I got into Warren Zevon recently and I've pretty quickly gotten through most of his discography. Is there anyone else that blended weird, kind of literary lyrics with that sort of honkey-tonk, layered instrumentation you can dance to?

Also, been dipping my toes into some 1970-1980 Japanese jazz fusion stuff like Ryuichi Sakamoto, Kazumi Watanabe and Shigeharu Mukai. What else is out there? Who should I check out?

I've been told this before, but the Prine I've found seems to be more country ballad than dance-able interesting instrumentation, and unfortunately country ballads just aren't my thing. Did he ever do anything that was outside of that particular wheelhouse?

What Zevon songs are you calling danceable? Excitable boy? Jeannie Needs A Shooter? Boom Boom Mancini? Or are you dancing to Something Bad Happened To A Clown?

Dylan would probably be the first comp I’d come up with, where his lyrics are funny and literary. He’s got a way bigger catalog than Zevon, though, so a lot of it isn’t probably going to be your kind of dance music. But if you haven’t done the deep dive, there’s 600+ songs to listen to.

Yes, all of the ones you listed. That's a good point, I'll list the ones that I mean when I'm trying to describe what I like about his sound:
The entirety of the album Excitable Boy
Something Bad Happened to a Clown
Seminole Bingo
Splendid Isolation
Play It All Night Long
Boom Boom Mancini
The Factory
Reconsider Me
Detox Mansion

Dylan is... definitely intimidating, and I haven't really liked most of what I've heard of his stuff, but I can take that to the "Where to Start With..." Thread.

James McMurtry maybe? He's pretty clever. He has a song called Choctaw Bingo that's kind of funny. Definitely a little more country-tinged, but a stellar songwriter and very familiar sounding.

Tom Waits has the lyrics and kinda shuffle/honky tonk vibe on a lot of his stuff but its not very "dancey" like Zevon

Random thing I want suggestions for: if you collect cassettes, do you have a favorite in your collection? I have a lot but they're mostly from the same bands over and over (Jeff rosenstock, of Montreal, Hiatus Koyote to name a few) and I'm looking to expand to things that similarly sound good in "lo-fi". I notice bass-heavy music just doesn't sound that good on cassette.

The Island Years is a good way to figure out which studio albums to go to, but yeah Rain Dogs and Mule Variations. Swordfishtrombones is good.

Edit:
Listening to Rain Dogs now and drat is it so good.

My favorite cassette right now is Warren Zevon's Excitable Boy. Sounds great on cassette, 9 songs without a single miss.

Is this a thread where I can rave about how good Brian Eno's "Taking Tiger Mountain" is? Because it is a really good album. I also really like the cover album put out by a group calling themselves ENOrchestra. I find the album more accessible than most other Brian Eno stuff too. The lyrics are described as "dadaist" but the songs are comprehensible in a psychedelic way.

random thoughts: "Back In Judy's Jungle" is reminiscent of Pink Floyd. "Fat Lady of Limbourg" is a weird sp00ky song followed by bouncy psychedelic pop/joy/pleading of "Mother Whale Eyeless" which I feel is the best song on the album. The album is kind of all over the place but still feels cohesive. The electric guitars and drums absolutely kick rear end throughout the entire album.

A lot of black metal would sound fine on cassette.

America's $1 Funnyman

Here's a question/search for recommendations. Looking for cool classic rock, 70s-80s etc, that influenced this fine vintage J-rock. I love this stuff, and I just get a bit of deja vu or feel like it reminds me of bits and pieces of well known classic rock songs I'm forgetting. These are by Yoshiki Fukuyama / Humming Bird, and also Make-Up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4AUfuDQ3_k

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOuZXkWLv_Q&list=PL_HUc5O09UpUcRKsXLag6DPwRGYHmveRa&index=4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn51NflRwdI&list=PL_HUc5O09UpUcRKsXLag6DPwRGYHmveRa&index=10

That first one with the cool bass line and emotional hard rock, it reminds me of something but not sure what. Particularly curious about that. The second song reminds me a little of Twilight by ELO and stuff like that. And I know his happy hard rock guitar solos are influenced by Brian May of Queen.

The Make-Up stuff reminds me of like Foreigner, Survivor, Europe, Journey etc. But anyways, I feel like there's a lot of cool stuff up this alley I could check out from classic rock. Thanks.

And outside of that, also just always interested in classic hard rock that is also emotional or epic, outside of being specifically a ballad. Though those can be cool too.
