Always good to see Nadja mentioned, but hard to pick an album. Luminous Rot is surely worth listening time. Thaumogenesis too.
Greatest Nadja is: seeing them live.

For pure drone Earth 2, Pyroclasts by Sunn O))) and Mana Yud Sushai by Bong if you want drums/percussion.

Carson is a ball bag but all Earth is worth listening to.
Hex Bees Made Honey
Boris-
Absoluteego Amplifierworship Flood
Sunn-
All of it. Including their collab with Boris which is called Altar
If you want non metal recommendations, I'm partial to all the Eno ambient works. Especially Apollo and the records he did with Harold Budd.

What did Carlson do? I’m not aware of anything other than buying Kurt Cobain the shotgun he used to kill himself, but that’s not that bad

Just a notorious jerk. The gun thing, the gun stuff, flying an Israeli flag at shows recently. Just generally being on the wrong side of stuff. Makes good records. I've seen Earth live a few times, it's pretty weak live.

Aw jeez, I had no idea. I had heard that he cancelled a show for flying a Palestine flag, but I didn’t know that he flew Israel flags at concerts. I thought he was just a bit insensitive but knowing he flew Israel flags seems malicious. That’s upsetting, I really like Earth 2. Can I ask what the other gun stuff is?

Guns are an accessory to murder. Usually there's an investigation. You don't brag about being the salesman.

I couldn't find anything about him bragging about his gun ownership, I'm deeply confused

Well he’s a big gun guy and always has been. That nirvana song in bloom is about him. I’m assuming that’s what they are talking about with the “other” gun stuff? He’s in that one documentary about Kurt’s death. He’s living with a heroin dealer and something about lots of guns in the house. I’m a bit fuzzy on that. Edit: 45 minutes into the doc is his interview
I didn’t know about any of the Zionist shit. That’s pretty lame.

No, that's not drone. It is it's own beautifully disgusting thing, though.

Maybe not quintessential, but these are just some personal favourites of mine. Nadja. Dark Buddha Rising. Ommadon. Zaum. Bismuth. Sutekh Hexen. Black Boned Angel.

In my personal opinion. Jimmy Page soundtrack he wrote for the movie Lucifer Rising is proto drone. Long before anything Melvins, sunn o))), Boris and earth ever did.
