That's a very random list, but it's got some noisy stuff, some drone/ambient and post-punk.
This is the type of music I mostly listen to right now.

Spectacular band, those Chameleons. I'm scratching my head at what they have to do with the other ones (except for Swans, since they're both from the 80s and thus amazing).

One of my favourite metal bands of all time is Neurosis, the founding fathers of Post-Metal.

Natural Snow Buildings is in my opinion Drone perfected. Even though it's a different kind of Drone than, say, Sunn O))). It has more Folk influences. Check out the album The Dance of the Moon and The Sun. Shadow Kingdom is also a great one.

I like Drone, i discovered this genre little time ago, and like you said i had to understand it well first. Maybe my favourite is Nadja, really a nice band.

*jealous* I recommend bass communion and death cube k (esp dreamatorium) for great dark ambient

I do enjoy some bands like Sunn O))), Khanate, Earth, Boris, Pelican, Cult Of Luna etc. Drone music is hard to get use to in general but when you start to like it's really an interesting genre with its various bands.
I love mostly Dark Ambient as in ambient-atmospheric black metal bands, but there is some that makes only ambient. Noisy music is often mixed with krautrock due to the elements they share but there is lots of differences too. I remind Swans when the talking issue is noise rock. What's your favourite bands in these genres?
