There's a Christian metal band called Bloodgood. I haven't looked too deep into them and don't know where they fall on the Stryper scale, I just have seen their old records on Ebay a bunch. I listened to one song years ago because of stumbling upon them and it was alright.

NotNut posted:Anyone have recommendations for good music with Christian themes? Any genre. NEEDTOBREATHE (yes it's all caps and no spaces for some reason) is pretty good, genre is Rock/Alternative. If you're not sure which album to start with, try Rivers In The Wasteland. They're a Christian band but only sometimes do overtly Christian lyrics.

Not flat-out sad but I've always thought Donna Summer - Last Dance and ABBA - Dancing Queen have a wistful, bittersweet vibe E: maybe The Three Degrees - When will I see you again regulargonzalez fucked around with this message at 05:09 on Oct 9, 2021 |

Anyone have suggestions for songs similar to Eve's 遊生夢死(Living idly and dying as if dreaming) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roh_p2l8DHo? I don't particularly like most of his other songs, so I'm not specifically looking for a similar artist. It can be any language.

Thanks for the Chinese album recs everyone - there was a lot of good stuff in there. I currently have a playlist with 3 tracks on it: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6g5aKcirVHL1o1BLQkJqEt?si=58fcb4a90e32408b Recommend me other music like this, this tribal stuff is one of my favorite kinds of music but seems incredibly hard to come by.

I've been obsessed with Swamp Thing by The Chameleons lately. Obvious comparison is The Cure, but I was hoping I could get more songs like this (dark jangle pop, maybe?), possibly other hidden gems.

might be kind of a goofy recommendation but the the singer from AFI sounds a lot like that singer. AFI did a lot of stuff that was obvious love letters to bands from that period but they never really dropped the punk trappings, so it's pretty different. pop-punk production, distorted guitars and screaming. maybe you'll dig it anyway. i also don't know much about what they did after sing the sorrow, so hey maybe they made a whole Cure tribute album or something, i dunno https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UJKIZ0VH6Y

I have Spotify and I enjoy listening to modern (2000's +) Alt/Indie stuff and came across this song that blows me away. Vagabond (Feat. Czarface) by MISSIO. I think especially for the siren that dances along with that powerful beat is just a pump you up song. Is there anything else like that out there that I should look in to, specifically for the siren type of accommodation with the song? I was born in '76 so as I was growing up, I knew about raves and stuff and Alt music like this but never got to experience it since my parents were strict. I used to write my own similar music in ScreamTracker (and the one before that I can't remember the name of that made .MOD files) and I was on a couple BBS then later Internet music groups back in the 90s. I loved the demo scene and would have given anything to go to the Assembly in Finland but my parents about laughed their selves to death when I told them that! Anyway... I stumbled across MISSIO recently and that song blew me away and I'm looking for more like it!

I am super pumped because I rediscovered this local Vancouver punk band I used to see in the mid-2000s. I had a physical copy of the album but lost it and haven't been able to find them for years. I'd done a few online searches here or there but never turned up anything because their name, "Careworn", was too general to get any real hits and they were never that big. Also, I couldn't remember the name of the album or any track titles, so that was a bummer... A snippet of a song lyric came to mind recently and searching brought me to this last.fm page about a similarly named German death metal band. The pages talks about how they are NOT the Canadian Careworn and gave some more deets and I was actually able to find some online links to their tracks! They claim some of their influences as Alkaline Trio, Fugazi, and Coheed & Cambria, so if any of those are your jam, you may like them. It's not revolutionary, but there's some catchy tracks here. These are my preferred tracks off the album: "Even Our Flesh Was Stardust" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxlFPquXgpY "Snow Seeks June" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NT916GEHRqc "$139 Gets You Anywhere" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt0mXSK6a9c

Anything similar to Lola's Pocket PC? I've tried Sputnik's other projects but there's something about the Lola EP that hits just right -- the lo-fi homebrew electronic sound, the positive-without-being-chipper lyrics. Other stuff in this vein sounds too produced, I love the bedroom studio vibe this has. Thanks!

Russian Futurists are solid.

I listened to Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs and enjoyed it. It occurred to me tonight that the closest match I can think of is múm, especially Finally We Are No One, especially musically and vocally. You could slot in Your Near-Death Experience between Green Grass of Tunnel and We Have a Map of the Piano and no one would think twice about it. So of anyone likes múm check out Lola's Pocket PC, and vice versa

For stuff that sounds more like Hallmark '87's ambient stuff, you could try Oneohtrix Point Never or even Boards of Canada (although I think BoC sounds much more '70s than '80s)

My dad is a classical aficionado with enough CDs to start a store, literally. I have never bought him a classical CD as a gift, but these Immortal Performances recordings intrigue me. I don't think he has any of them. Are there any that are especially notable and worth buying?actionjackson posted:I just discovered vaporwave, and I enjoy feeling like I'm in a giant mall in 1987

It gets much trickier with that. Many of those he might already own, maybe with a different imprint. And with so many choices, personal preference becomes more important. I have a strong preference towards Bel canto operas and am not a fan of Richard Strauss so that would inform my decisions.

actionjackson posted:I just discovered vaporwave, and I enjoy feeling like I'm in a giant mall in 1987 George Clanton has a number of projects that range from very vaporwavey (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FMsb1FGAvA) to heavily influenced by the aesthetic (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhD0aXft8gw). He's probably one of the biggest proponents of the genre in the US, with artists under his label incorporating a ton of stuff (Check out Magdalena Bay, Negative Gemini, Dan Mason, FM Skyline, Windows 96 and Surfing, very wide variety of styles incorporating the aesthetic, and some staying very close to the original style). Saint Pepsi is close, but more modified Japanese citypop than anything: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrR1TGQY20Y As Hooplah said, Blank Banshee is a very cool offshoot of vaporwave. They posted ecozones which is great, but they're best known for Teenage Pregnancy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQxDM2K-hd0 and here's my favorite BB tune of all time, Dreamcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQMzbeR-qiI Other related things you may or may not have heard: HOME - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvqnZ--9T2M - utterly fantastic retro electronic stuff, the soundtrack to speedrunning. Surfing - Moonlight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPRa6IDMxD8&t=62s - Really good example of a more talented artist taking on the genre. Trevor Something - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYOtZvwNCsc&t=356s - a darker vapor sound. Negative Gemini - Infin Path https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfOeHiUWPkE - may be more drum and bass than you like, but I adore this song and it's related enough for me to squeeze it in here. Play it with the bass turned up. FM Skyline - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krMhHL26vTc - 90's telephone hold music for cool kids. And, I mean, if you want THE vaporwave song, it's obviously: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQkPcPqTq4M
