Good isn't it. Loads of great material there. Let me know how you get on, I even found the guide to experimental Hip-Hop interesting, and that's certainly not my favourite genre.
For anyone else watching this thread, five albums to get you into Post Punk is really good as well:

I watched the Swans one on Friday night and immediately thereafter stuck The Seer on, it being one of a very small number of Swans records I hadn't previously heard.

If you don't like that, find something else! and let the rest of us know.
I know f**k all about Death Metal, don't understand it, can't get on with it. Help me with it.
Same goes for etc... etc... etc...
!!Media alert!! Swans in session on 6music 22/5/2017

For anyone who fancies it, they are
in session on 6Music this evening.
SWANS - possibly the loudest band on the planet in session tonight.
They have announced a remastered reissue of their ninth studio album, The Great Annihilator, out April 2017.
The album was entirely remastered by Doug Henderson, but only after Bill Rieflin recently tracked down DATs and cassettes containing unmastered mixes from the sessions. Michael Gira (the bands head honcho) described the discovery as "a revelation of great sonic effect".
SWANS is an experimental rock band formed in the USA in 1982, it travels around with very very large amplifying speakers.

I'm still thinking about it. Had a ticket last year but didn't make it. I'll see how I feel after PWEI Friday.

If you've never seen the recent incarnation of the band, don't miss it. Swans live are quite astonishing.

I am tempted to continue with this picture game but it will mean yet another thread derailed and i'm a newb so i must try harder to behave.
My mind does wander by mistake at times though
