These don’t really seem like your kinds of tracks, Hymie :D
I’ve heard some of them, the Fever Ray/Knife (which I’m positive you would hate) tracks, the Neil Young and Nick Cave ones as well. I’d say I’ve probably heard about a half, but could only put a sound to maybe a quarter off the top of my head.

Very much industrial rock-based list, with touches of electronic and psychedelic tunes. A few gems in there

To say the least, but I just wondered how obscure these things were. The guy who made the list is American too, from Missouri. I told him that he should join this forum, you guys would love him!

He seems like a cool guy - Crumbling Castle at 19 is a great choice. I'm a little surprised that he has Thumbs by Lucy Dacus at number 11 - the song came out like a month ago!

The Deltron 3030 and Dr Octagon tracks are two that would make my top 1000 definitely! I am a big fan of Dan the Automator.

Lovage is one of Dan the Automator’s projects (a trip hop / downbeat version of Deltron and Dr Octagon featuring some of the same collaborators).

‘She’s Lost Control’ would probably be a op 100 contender for me (as long as it’s not the album version)

Paul Revere has some fantastic scratching on it.

I like his Weezer, Black Sabbath, Tom Petty, Nick Cave, and Neil Young picks too.

As for the rest, I listen to a bit of Killing Joke, Suicide, Gary Numan, and Ministry from time to time (Ministry’s cover of Lay Lady Lay is really something!)

I've heard most of these and love a lot of them. ("We Believe" by Ministry is a personal favorite.) You're right, Hymie - I think he'd fit in great here! :D

I thought the same thing! His taste shows that he has pretty deep knowledge and there isn't much else on here that came out recently. He certainly likes his doom metal / heavy psych which we could probably use more of around here.

2 of my favorite songs in the top 3, one I love even more further down the list, one of my favorite song from 2020, some really good Leonard Cohen picks, Blank Mass, Fever Ray... obviously I do approve !
Funny to see Annie in there, doesn't really fit with the other picks I must say.

Regarding the "how obscure are those", I'd say most of these aren't the most obscure things ever, but also far from the most known, I don't think there are more than 5 songs I wouldn't be very surprised to hear on the radio.

I love Ministry so I am glad to see them greatly represented here. I was just listening The Land of Rape and Honey on my walk today. Funnt enough 1000 Homo DJs and The Revolving Cocks are also projects of Al Jourgensen of Ministry. Industrial music is one of my favorite musical umbrellas

I've heard it before. The rest, I can safely say, I don't know either well or even a little.
