Here’s my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, don’t let that stop you from recommending me things you think I won’t like though I’m trying to expand my horizons.
I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.
Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE if you wanna expand into psychedelia
Stessie - Home
violent femmes - hallowed ground
Our musical tastes seem almost perfectly aligned, so I’ll try and throw out a few curve balls:
- AJR - pretty corny, but fuck if almost every song ain’t a bop.
- The Districts - A Flourish and a Spoil
- Mansions - Dig Up the Dead
- Stop Light Observations - oRANGE.
- Disco Elysium Soundtrack has been my go to of late when I don’t want lyrics cluttering my head.
disco elysium soundtrack is fiiiiire
I’s recommend SLIFT’s album UMMON. It’s an interesting mix of psychedelic-prog rock/metal.
Their other albums are also pretty solid, but Ummon is their best IMO.
Sad, Fat Luck by Ceschi
The Chronicles of Israfel - Starborn
Big Boi and Phantom made a collab album.
Didn’t notice The Streets in your top 100. It’s kind of in line with Gorillaz. My fave album of theirs: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Grand_Don’t_Come_for_Free
Deltron 3030.
Hes the rapper for the gorillaz but also has/had a solo career before/during/after the gorillaz as del the funkee homosapien.
The album is a sci-fi futurism concept hip hop album.
I love Gorillaz and have listened to Deltron 3030 plenty of times but never made the connection!
He’s also Ice Cube’s cousin
illmatic
P.U.L.S.E.
Upgrade that Dark Side of the Moon.
Which PULSE?
Phantomime - Mori Calliope
Apex - Unleash the Archers.
Best album but their best song will always be Dreamcrusher off of Time Stands Still!
