UD, this might not be weird enough for you, but I think you'll enjoy it :)

Oh, my dog, I had forgotten how much I love this. I saw them perform it live in Winnipeg (of all places!) with the video accompaniment. The video is a movie shot in 1929, same title as the song (in fact, the song was written as a kind of soundtrack to the movie).

And, Dougly, I think it counts as weird :)

Love's Secret Domain is still one of my favourite albums ever, although I haven't pulled it out of the stacks in a while *note to self...* It's kind of at the intersection of dark ambient, industrial, and techno -- really good if you like that sort of thing (as I do). Ugly Dougly, I'm casting a glance your way.

ETA, since this is in the "Experiences at BM" forum: My first time at Burning Man, I was awakened on Wednesday morning by the sound of this album coming from the street. I groggily got out of my tent and there was this huge, rolliing, castle. It stopped right there for a bit, so I got a good look/listen. What a great start to a morning!

EDIT 2: I swapped for a different song on the same album, because someone made a cool/weird video for it, which is good for this thread. Enjoy!

From another of their albums. A lot more on the dark-ambient side If the heat is getting to you, this might help you think chilly thoughts...

The hairstyle has been in existence in many parts of the world for millennia. For instance, the Clonycavan Man, a 2000-year-old male bog body discovered near Dublin in 2003, was found to be wearing a mohawk styled with plant oil and pine resin.[2] Artwork discovered at the Pazyryk burials dating back to 600 BCE depicts Scythian warriors sporting similar mohawks. The body of a warrior occupying one of the kurgans had been scalped earlier in life and wore a hair prosthesis in the form of a mohawk.[3]

Amongst the Pawnee people, who historically lived along in present-day Nebraska and in northern Kansas, a "mohawk" hair style was common.

When going to war, 16th-century Ukrainian Cossacks would shave their heads, leaving a long central strip. This haircut was known as a khokhol and was often braided or tied in a topknot.[4]

During World War II, many American GIs, notably paratroopers from the 101st Airborne Division wore mohawks to intimidate their enemies. It was also occasionally worn by America troops during the Vietnam War[5][6]. In the early 1950s some jazz musicians, and even a few teenage girls, wore them.[7]

The essence of haiku is "cutting" (kiru). This is often represented by the juxtaposition of two images or ideas and a kireji ("cutting word") between them, a kind of verbal punctuation mark which signals the moment of separation and colours the manner in which the juxtaposed elements are related.
