He didn't release another album until 1995's ''Tilt'', when it became apparent that a full-scale GenreShift had happened: in place of the sardonic/romantic tone of the '60s and '70s and the ominous electronic balladry of the '80s, Walker was now in NightmareFuel territory with massively [[DroneOfDread doomy strings]], disturbing WordSalad lyrics and a new, ghostly tenor voice in place of his previous warm baritone. Walker went on to release increasingly disturbing but rather brilliant albums at occasional intervals, his last being 2012's ''Bish Bosch''. Walker also began to make a name for himself scoring the music to avant-garde films, and even recorded an album with drone metallers Music/SunnO, which was his final release.

In 1970 he took out British citizenship and moved to England, where he lived for the rest of his life. On receiving an award in 2003, he said of England "I couldn't have made the records I've made in any other place." In 2006 he was the subject of a feature-length documentary by Stephen Kijak entitled ''Scott Walker: 30 Century Man''. On March 25, 2019, Walker passed away at the age of 76.
