Tortoise are an instrumental band who are about to become a more household name after this, their latest album, Standards.

Great tunes, good mixing, nice sequencing. 
Shame the "Clubber's Guide"s have gone down in quality. Amazingly chilled album May cause drowsiness "Cottonwool" and "Gorecki" Many tracks don't have a strong melody A very, very good albumn Cool, Eclectic Dodgy Beta Band tuneSpeed Of Sound - Anvil
Entertaining classic metal with doom-style guitars. The lyrics.
My Name Is Nobody - Soundtrack
Creative to the max, very fun and hugely entertaining Maybe a little too cooky for some and, oh that ticking clock...
Leaving Eden - Antimatter
Gloomy atmospheric rock in the style of Anathema. It won't make you cry or anything.
Baptism By Fire - Apathy
Pop - 2007
Folkloric Feel - Apostle Of Hustle
Atmospheric and varied. Obvious singles are less impressive.
Eat Me, Drink Me - Marilyn Manson
Powerful Gothic Metal, Manson At His Best None
Animal - Animosity
Competent technical death metal that doesn't show off. Lacks individuality.
Android Domena - Ars Nova
Talented old-school prog. Confused intentions.
A Diamond For Disease - Arsis
Title song is a brilliant long death metal piece. Other half is essentially filler.
6 6 6 - Aphrodite's Child
Innovative and highly imaginative early prog classic. Descends into a shambles at points.
