Rykygnyzyr Influences Arranged in the form of a Playlist for the Most Recent Model of iPod

So I am in a band. Tentatively, we are going with Rykygnyzyr (pronounced 'Recognizer'). We are guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, reel-to-reel, and saxophones. So we had an idea to make mix CDs to give to one another in order to gain a better understanding of our respective thoughts for the band. These are mine:

1. T.V. Eye - The Stooges
2. Digital Handshake - Marc Ribot's Ceramic Dog
3. Hallogallo - Neu!
4. Red - Mission of Burma
5. All the Colors of the Dark - Grails
6. Dead Dog on Asphalt - Adrian Belew
7. Moses? I Ain't - Mogwai
8. We Carry On - Portishead
9. Judas Goat - Killing Joke
10. Something Dirty - Faust
11. Happy Bunny Goes Fluff-Fluff Along - The Jesus Lizard
12. Big Church - Sunn O)))

So that's my line-up. Melodic diversions from a heavy fucking wall of kick-your-ass. Word to your mother.
