Great band. Got into them as preparation for the Mega Monsters tour and fell in love with Crack the Skye.
I'm a huge Mastodon fan, but for the life of me I could never get into Leviathan. I don't know why. I'm fairly sure another 10 years from now it will suddenly "click" in my head and I will be obsessed with this album like everyone else
I recently learned that the first song that Bowie wrote after learning piano was "Oh You Pretty Things." I don't know why but I've been listening to it a ton since. And I'm currently counting Hunky Dory as my favorite Bowie album.
Hunky Dory is such an incredible album. There isn't a bad song on it. I've been flip flopping on that and Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust as my favorite Bowie albums for years
The Way of All Flesh by Gojira. Have you ever wanted to experience what it feels like to let go and die? Because I didnβt know it could feel so good.
My fav albums rn are:
- Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band - Beatles
- American Idiot - Green Day
- Rare Americans 2 - Rare Americans
- Blue Album - Weezeer
Destiny Potato - Addict
Great song
Great buildup
Epic guitar solo
EDIT: Seems my suggestion is somewhat popular, so in case it wasn't already known, the entire album, Lun, is amazing.
Freesia - (K)NoW_NAME has been an obsession for a while now. It might be my new favorite song?
(K)now Name has a lot of great songs.
Take Me Back To Eden by Sleep Token
It's Good to be King - Tom Petty
I watched a documentary on the making of the Wildflowers album last night. Normally when I watch something like that, I'll go on a weeklong bender of that particular artist
Thanks to a radio sitcom a few days ago, my brain is currently obsessed with Bert Kaempfert's Swinging Safari and has been repeating it - or at least phrases from it -pretty much continuously for the last 48 hrs. I don't have much say in the matter myself.
Bert Kaempfertβs got the mad hits.
Glue Man by Fugazi
Palm Trees by Jungle. Honestly, anything on their latest album "Volcano" is amazing, as are the music videos. Seriously worth a watch.
The last three or four songs from Jungle have been FIRE. The videos are awesome as well.
Currently it's a mix of: (with link to all streaming platforms)
Being on Lemmy makes such a difference. Had this been reddit, this thread would have barely gotten 5 replies
Thrash Unreal - Against Me! Prisoners of Today - Billy Talent
In that vein, Devil in a Midnight Mass by Billy Talent is an easy go to when trying to "capture" their sound. Such a great band I finally got to see live for the first time this year.
I can't get that "Illegals in my yard" song out of my head after hearing it earlier.
Β«Tenebre Rosso SangueΒ» by βΉKeygen ChurchβΊ
not strong enough by boygenius
Flowerboy by 000
Now that we're in Advent and I feel justified playing Christmas music again:
The Killers - "The Cowboys' Christmas Ball" (Michael Martin Murphey cover)
Andrea Perry - "Fat Aunt Bette"
This week, it's been A Farewell to Arms by Machine Head. The song just builds into something incredible.
For me it's the Smoke & Oakum album by The Longest Johns, but more specifically, The Worker's Song, both for the sound and the subject matter.
The first smoke of the day (album version) - Jon Allen and Robby Crook

Shit just slaps and a lot of clever bars.
Tropical Island - PA69
Makes me feel like Happy Summer in the Cold
"You and Me" by Penny and the Quarters. Heard it in a restaurant a couple weeks ago and it's been in heavy rotation ever since.
Bye Bye Bad Man by The Stone Roses.
The guitar on this song is deceptively complex and difficult. And itβs soooo good. John Squire is 100% underrated.
Cult to Follow - Leave it all behind
I guess all people have their own tastes lol. something thay may click very well for me might not click well with others
Herald of Darkness by the Old Gods of Asgard!
Cantaloop by UB3. Song of my youth...
Clipping.βs β96 Neve Campbell.
