Let's talk apocalypse. I want overlooked, underread, interesting if not quality stuff. Fuck off with your middle of the road well known recs.
Preferably biohazard, man made rather than climate. Add your preferences too. I can reccommend Jonathan Maberry's Joe Ledger novels for starters.

This is my favorite genre fiction and the only good ones I know of are
The Road - McCarthy
Earth Abides - Stewart
Alas, Babylon - Frank
On the Beach - Shute
Riddley Walker - Hoban
The one by Emily St. John Mandel was a waste of time.

Well reading the first entry I wanted to say "come the fuck on" but I actually never heard of other novels except perhaps On the beach.
You might want to start with Ballard's short stories and The Drowned World.

Anything similar to Fallout, or fallout vaults?
J.G Ballard's High Rise - not quite an apocalypse but good societal breakdown. Pic related is worth look also.

I want to read Stand on Zanzibar because the title reminds me of Metal Gear.

Oh, no! Oh squeeze my cheek and say it ain't so!

a while since i read that... remember it being good and cynical but Sheep is devastating once you get into it - both are a bit dated in writing style but totally on point otherwise.

Dated in what way?
