5. Only five. Therefore
Tom Waits - Mule Variations
Nick Cave - Henry's Dream
Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose
65daysofstatic - The Distant and Mechanised Glow of Eastern European Dance Parties
The White Stripes - The White Stripes
Largely because those were the first three I saw
Interested to see At The Drive In's Relationship of Command on a few lists that's a tough one to leave off

Tom Waits is badass, my audio production teacher in high school had us listening to this and his other albums all the time!

I'm pretty jealous I wish my teachers were that awesome. We got Andrew Lloyd Webber. I put Mule variations on the list because its quite long really any of his albums would do the trick for me

As I said before I don't think this is possible but OK, I'm going to see if I can do this... deep breath...
In no particular order:
Richard Hell & the Voidoids - Blank Generation
The Action - Rolled Gold
Funkadelic - Funkadelic
The Only Ones - The Only Ones
Rotary Connection - Hey Love
To be honest, tomorrow it would be five completely different albums - maybe something from the last 30 years, even. But I absolutely love all of those...

He was certainly interested in Luigi Russolo's "noise intoners".
