Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some simple blues or any other acoustic oriented music that involves a lot tritone and or other dissonant/atonal chords that give off an unnerving vibe. Something in the vein of:

The only other artist I have heard that is similar is maybe Jandek.
John Fahey is exactly who you're looking for.

Not really acoustic, but look up Cab Calloway version of St James Infirmiry, but there's a nice old animation of it that adds to it.
