I don't want non of them lawyer blues, give me some of that angry dusty dry front-porch-sitting murder blues. Something that would give them newfangled metal bands a run for their money.

Worth a watch just for the toothless monologues on religion between songs:

As others have mentioned, Son House is pretty much the king of the crusty delta blues ...
John the Revelator .. pretty ripe

Son House was a preacher. He's allow to spout religion whenever he wants.
Definitely prefer him to Robert Johnson. Think I prefer Charley Patton even more though. (Tommy Johnson is also pretty great.)
Then, of course, there's Blind Willie Johnson. If you can call the Lord's music "blues". Though, I guess, his voice's angrier sounding than his guitar.
My suggestion was in jest.
