quicksilver messenger service, "shady grove"--poorly recorded, but strangely beautiful, with slow stately slightly trippy songs and gobs of nicky hopkins' piano.
nirvana, "in utero"--always a tough one for me--half the songs are iconic, while the other half (depending on my mood) verge on unlistenable. "frances farmer" is godlike.
wooden wand, "death seat"--not sure what to call this (maybe "freak folk") and it's pretty somber stuff, but it's weird and unpredictable, in the best way.
