The twin downminor down-7 scale works well for the blues. It lacks a M2, so over the V chord, shift the scale so that it's rooted on the 5th. Likewise shift the root to the 4th over the IV chord.

The scale completely lacks perfect 4ths and 5ths, giving it a very unusual sound. But it's full of low-odd-limit ratios, so it sounds both alien and harmonious. There are many augmented and diminished chords. Any three adjacent notes on the genchain form Bohlen-Pierce's up-sesquiaug chord P1 ^M3 ^^#5 (aka up-down6-no5 P1 ^M3 vM6), thus every scale has nine such chords. Likewise nine each of that chord's homonyms, up-halfaug (P1 ^M3 ^^5=vm6) and upminor-halfaug (P1 - ^m3 - ^^5=vm6). There are also seven upminor-mid5 chords (P1 ^m3 ~5) and five upminor-down7-mid5 chords (P1 ^m3 ~5 vm7).
