Albums that are physically/mentally/emotionally exhausting, yet highly recommended?
Well, I have to hear that version then, tru blu :) A new take on an 'old' classic? Goody.... I'll look it up! Thought by now someone would chuck in Trout Mask, an album I've loved since 1969 but one it took me a fair while to finally 'get' all the music on it. Once got, tho... -

A Journey Into The Strange, Abstract And Dark Realm Of Music
Not sure these fit in your genre... Diamanda Galas - Litanies of Satan. Ambient it's not! More easy on the ear: Meredith Monk - Dolmen Music Both are vocals, tho...but not songs. -
