I only know The Comet Is Coming from that list, thought the album was pretty good but I'm not a huge jazz fan (Sun-ra and a bit of Miles covers it!) I do like spacey/cosmic music though so it hit those spots.
Big fan of Gnod, very diverse band who incorporate unsettling ambience, industrial, post-punk, spoken word... they do tend toward the more brutal side of things!
Recently been listening to James Johnstone's solo album (very Nick Cave, unsurprising as he's an ex-bad seed!) and Alan Vega's posthumous album, both great in their own way.

Mr"I've seen Gnod a few times. I do like them live though possibly not what I'd play in the car. Have you come across a vaguely related band called Water? | |||

"Lots of music threads talking about classic rock or mainstream pop. I love a lot of this but there's so much more out there. My tastes are eclectic & often obscure so what do you recommend that most people won't have heard? To start... best gigs I've seen or best albums I've heard in last two years include Anna Meredith Floating Points Bathymetry Astrïd & Rachel Grimes Colin Stetson The Comet Is Coming Trembling Bells Noura Mint Seymali Ifriqiyya Electrique " Never heard of any of them,but im more rock/metal/punk guy,but i do like a bit of elecro music | |||

" Never heard of any of them,but im more rock/metal/punk guy,but i do like a bit of elecro music" Fair enough. I've also seen bands like Maiden and Pixies recently too. Have you heard Cabbage yet? I'm in two minds about them, saw them live and they're a mixed bag but getting there. Also Cowtown, The Moonlandingz, Lovely Eggs might be up your street. | |||

Couldn't get into Cabbage, they're ok i suppose and i liked 'tell me lies about Manchester' but the rest is a bit indie-schmindie for me.
Unfortunately I rarely get out to gigs these days although I am going to see Sleaford Mods and Algiers (pretty awesome electro, hip hop, motown, post-punk hybrid, very political) in the coming months.

Have you come across a vaguely related band called Water?"No not heard Water, I'll check them out I know there's many Gnod associated side projects but not had time to check them all out. VANISHING is a good one though that paddy from gnod did with a vocalist. Very apocalyptic, sounds like 'Threads' the tv drama reinterpreted as music! Again, not one for the car maybe 
Admittedly a shameless plug for a mates band here but Monster Island have just released a new EP on bandcamp (pay what you want) called 'the new vernacular', if you're into The Fall, The Birthday Party, Cab Voltaire etc... it might be up your street. They're great live but a bit hit and miss on record to be honest, this new EP is great all the way through though.

"Daniel O'Sullivan of SunnO))) new solo album is sensational " Not sure I've gotten off on the wrong foot with sunnO))). I've got Helloween & the Scott walker collaboration, not mad keen on them but unsure as to whether they're the best starting points for a beginner, wondered if you knew a better gateway album?

"Monoliths and Dimensions is probably their most accessible record. Maintains their trademark sound while introducing orchestral melodies into the soundscape." Will give it a go, thanks
