Couldnt agree more that there is an otherworldly quality to their whole trip, but it was very much intentional. These days, I prefer the infectious prepostpunk of Warsaw to the later dirges, but I guess I've regressed. Other albums with this vibe . . .

Jehovahkill for sure
Walter Wegmuller's Tarot
"Pit of Souls" by Robyn Hitchcock
Tones on Tail instrumentals
Balanese gamelon music
The Creatures "Feast"
All the songs where Crass mixed poetry with sonic collages esp. Reality Asylum
The Mayhem album (recorded before the guitarist killed the bassist!)
Ween "The Pod"
Steroid Maximus
sonic youth "evol"
the last song on The Idiot (which curtis was listening to when he died)
anything by Nurse with Wound, Coil, Current 93, Legendary Pink Dots
Nico and everything she touched
Daniel Johnston, Jandek, and Syd
