I meant to reply the other day but, well, everything is a distraction.

I checked out Black Vomit and really enjoyed it! That's the kind of noise-as-music that I like. It is equally background and foreground; melts into my environment while I'm focusing on something else, but interesting and attention-grabbing in the moments when my focus waivers. Excellent recommendation, thank you!

I wrote down your jazz recommendations and am slowly getting to them (lately I haven't been much in the mood for jazz, but the mood always comes back around eventually). Free Lancing was a hell of a ride, and I loved every track. Shared it with a friend of mine who also likes experimental/eccentric guitar-focused music and they also liked it. I'll add your other recommendations to the list and will definitely give them a listen in the coming weeks. Thanks again! :)

One of these days I might post a dump of all jazz-metal I gathered over the years, where ‘Free Lancing’ would be a starting point. If you want, I could ping you when I post.
