Bob Vylan - like early Rage Against the Machine. Found out about them when they got banned from entry to the US - which is how I’m discovering most of my music these days.
Reminds me of when Das Racist were detained and deported from the UK.

Nick Drake has been in my peripheral for a while, with one of his songs on my playlist. But recently I gave the rest of his music a try and I was stunned at how good it is, and how tragic his story was after reading up on him. The Pink Moon album is incredible. What a talent
Pink Moon is so beautiful.
Manchester Orchestra - https://youtu.be/dMkCpGDrehU
Saw M83 live recently. They put on one of the best performances I’ve ever seen
Nice. I’m definitely keeping an eye out for new tour date announcements
Bo Burnham
Because I’m still trying to find my sanity…
Ahh shit, I thought you said “Ben Bohmer” and got excited for a second.
The northern boys!! Hands down the best rap music made by 70 year white dudes from northern England!
It’s kind of funny because I’ve been listening to heavy metal for decades, but I just recently really got into Megadeth.
Miss construction 🤤
They’re EBM, great 2 albums.
Tessa Violet and Lilas Ikuta. Been getting both of their song in playlist for a while now, only recently really start to listen to their collection. Haven’t fully explore their music yet but i love what i’ve been listening.
Tessa Violet is great in concert, I will say :3
Fenne Lily, I find her voice mesmerizing.
Lambrini Girls, which are like The Chats if they were lesbians and from England instead of Australia.
Alfie Jukes, just because he’s some fun lighthearted quality pop.
I just noticed that they’re all from England. What can I say, the English still produce a bunch of good musical artists.
I saw Lambrini Girls open for Amyl and the Sniffers in Detroit. They killed it!
Louis Prima.
Black Pumas
Rockbitch!!! Awesome stuff
Antoha MC and KUKIKODAN.
The former, Antoha MC, is a Russian rapper who I like for his dark atmosphere and melodic accompaniment that complements his humming raps.
The latter, KUKIKODAN, is a Japanese band whose lyrics and music seem to reflect on the everyday passing of daily life.
Recently to me is like 3-4 years. And I have given more bands a little more of a listen that I had originally written off when they got big. Shinedown, in this moment, and ghost were all bands that I had originally written off, but after listening to more, I actually really enjoy.
Beyond that, there’s a French song I’ve been pursuing since I bought gran Turismo 7 that I’ve been dieing to find the artist name, despite it showing on screen whenever it changes, I never think to look, because I’m busy doing something else, I’m just like, “ooh this is that song I love!” And by the time I think to look in the corner, it’s gone.
Edit: finally found it! Lous and the Yakuza, song called amigo!
