Such as The Jesus Lizard, The Drones, Tomahawk, early Danzig etc. Any fans here? I'm after some more bands in this style.

Meat Puppets are awesome.

I'm not sure if it's the kind of dirty/twisted you're looking for, but what about Junkhouse or The Raconteurs?

Here's a video of Tom Wilson (lead singer of Junkhouse) performing his song Jesus Sings the Blues. There's about a three minute long story at the beginning. You can skip over it, but it's kind of funny.

The Racounteurs definitely, but only for a while though.
I feel that their music gets old pretty quick...along with the white stripes.(Maybe it's only me)
But definitely a good listen at the beginning.

Anyways, if you don't mind weird ass blues rock, try Captain Beefheart. This guy is definitely twisted in his head! His vocals and facial expression gives me the lulz.
Just Youtube 'captain beefheart' and you'll get a bunch of videos.
Some people find him annoying, but he definitely amuses me!
 
Never could get into Dinosaur Jnr or Captain Beefheart. Junkhouse sounds ok. I was kinda after more mentally fucked up stuff tbh, music that sounds like it's on the brink. Thanks anyway guys.
 
So Captain Beefheart is rock and roll? I've never heard any of his stuff, but I always thought it would be in the vein of Zappa since he collaborated with him
 
The stuff I've heard of his was pretty rock 'n roll, very strange though. Just didn't appeal to me much.
