User notes:

-Two different compilations of Everything! from discogs one includes silence track. Their official YouTube playlist does not include the interview, i wasn't sure if i should create an entirely new playlist and include the silence, or no. -Half of the album burning skies is instrumental - Most of the second half I put Avantgarde and Experimental. I really want to put Art Rock (a la bowie & brian Eno so please go with whatever invokes that). There was one album which I genuinely thought had elements of both (it was probably Everything!) but I took Avant-garde to be sort of whimsical and tongue and cheek. You know where the line is but you're playing arround it and being a bit silly. Experimental i took to mean you know where the line is and you are actively trying to be on the other side of it.

Moderator notes:

- Removed Everything without a release date - I get what you mean by Art Rock. I don't know how to correctly label this music, but I think Avant-Garde Post-Punk is not a bad description - I roughly agree with the difference between Avant-Garde and Experimental. I think Avant-Garde is taking an existing genre and moving it into a weird or provocative direction, while Experimental is something that is totally unrecognizable from any other genre. I think they have songs that fit into both.
