Also Shadows later work is quite good even if it never quite gets to the level of Endtroducing ever again. If you like that kind of Aggressive rapping, Run the Jewels is right up your street check out Nobody Speak and RTJ 2

Hi does anyone have a playlist for strip club music by "unknown" female acts?

Like FKA Twigs but music, or Halsey but creative, or Garbage but not 20 years old

Not a playlist, but my first thought was From Paris to Berlin: https://youtu.be/THt5u-i2d9k. Maybe the algorithm will do its job from there?

I really like the sound of fuzzed out funk like "The Guilotine" by The Coup (https://youtu.be/acT_PSAZ7BQ) or slightly melancholy, busted cassette sounding funk like "You're Not Good Enough" by Blood Orange (https://youtu.be/7gtdpnKbT10).

What kind of thing am I looking for exactly?

Thanks! Kind of, but I think I'm more looking for people who liked their parents Zapp and Roger records as kids, if that makes sense? Chromeo kind of have it, but are a bit self-consciously goofy.

Okay which are the best Commodores albums because I'm listening to Movin On and I'm quite disappointed: it sounds rather standard for the era.

Also taking any other upbeat funk/soul/disco of the 70s recommendations.

I think you could do fine with a Commodores greatest hits package. If you really like it Lionel Richie’s first two albums might be worth your time. I like them.

There will be a million suggestions for upbeat funk/soul/disco from the 70s, so I will just suggest Stevie Wonder’s Talking Book, Innervisions, and Fulfillingness’ First Finale. 3 of the greatest albums ever made and each one has funk and soul and rock and folk and even a little disco.

A friend on Discord randomly linked this to me. He figured I'd like it and boy was he right. I never expected how much I'd like music like this. I love the feeling of nostalgia in the song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ttqnz-xnwWM


Just wondering if anyone can suggest other bands like them or at least what albums to look into from Blackmore's Night?

(Stupid me didn't realize how famous 1/2 of the group was until a few days ago. My only defense is I only ever listened to Smoke on the Water and I followed Dio in his own band or as part of Sabbath, not in Rainbow)

You might like some of the early 70s English folk revival groups. I'm mostly familiar with Fairport Convention and especially Steeleye Span, but two other big names to look into are Pentangle and Traffic.

Besides Fairport Convention, Sandy Denny's work with The Strawbs, especially "Oh How She Changed." Throwing in Curved Air as well. Phantasmagoria is probably the best of their albums, with "Marie Antoinette," "Not Quite the Same" and "Melinda (More or Less)" all being lovely.

Similar male folky of the same era is The Strawbs' From the Witchwood album. Everyhing beyond this and their work with Denny are a bit heavier, but if you like anything of theirs, their early stuff is underrated.

Thank you both for the suggestions. I really appreciate it.

Of the stuff I've listened to far I think Sweetye is my favorite.

So 70s Steeleye Span have a few different periods. That Blackmore's Night song you posted feels quite ornate in its arrangement, so keeping that in mind I think their mid-70s albums might be a good starting point. The early stuff (which includes the song I posted above as it's from their debut) is a bit looser, but they tightened up quite a bit within a couple of years and much of their stuff has quite a hard edge to it. Unlike Blackmore's Night they don't use any keyboards but hopefully that's not a dealbreaker.

So for specific albums I would recommend Below the Salt, which is heavier and quite haunting at times, and All Around My Hat for a poppier, more casual jaunt. Maybe Now We Are Six as well, that one leans a bit more into the rock in folk-rock.

I just spent a bit geeking out with a friend about how much we love Metallica's Call of Ktulu, and I was wondering if any of y'all would be willing to share any instrumental (or heavily instrumental) songs y'all like that have a similar sense of gloom and foreboding.

Genre isn't super important to me, but I'm currently obsessing with how much that song captures such a specific, evil, maybe even tragic vibe.

Wildly different genre but that vibe you describe is (to me, anyway) present in Holden and Thompson - Nothing (93 Returning mix) -- sort of a realization that everything is doomed and by the time you've realized it, it's too late to fix it. With a nightclub beat.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oD8cRAjFB1w

And it's orchestral and from an opera but Wagner's Descent to Nibelheim from Das Rheingold has that vibe with an even more epic, bombastic take. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ3q3LyjnmA

E: Actually, James Holden's album The Idiots are Winning might be a good fit in general. It's been a minute, I'll listen to it and report back.


GY!BE - f# a# infinity (album) or First of the Last Glaciers if you want a taste of their sound
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyxCHXlB908

Post-rock in general, and GY!BE specifically, will probably have the vibe you're looking for.

Doom metal is a good genre for that sound. Especially the dronier stuff like Bell Witch, Pallbearer, Cult of Luna.

I think Isis would be right up your alley. And the entire genre of post-metal for that matter.

You've probably already heard Pink Floyd's Echoes.

Others that come to mind:
Rick Wakeman: Judas Iscariot
McKendree Spring: God Bless the Conspiracy
Hawkwind: Paranoia (either part)
Brian Wilson: Mrs. O'Leary's Cow. Or the original version from the Beach Boys Smile sessions. Wilson was convinced it was causing actual fires in Los Angeles, one of the reasons Smile was abandoned.

When working out I seem to listen almost exclusively to Lamb of God. What I like about them:

- The pace is the main thing - energetic and fast enough to keep me motivated
- Vocals - no melodic singing, only harsh metal vocals
- Consistency - honestly I seem to like so much of their stuff compared with other bands I've heard, so many tracks tick all the boxes

Particular tracks I like:
- Visitation
- Routes
- Now You've Got Something to Die For
- Laid to Rest

I've tried listening to other artists recommended by Spotify as similar but the vast majority either aren't fast enough (love older Opeth, but they're not energetic) or have more melodic vocals which are a total turn off (like Killswitch Engage).

Unrelated to any recommendations, the band I work out to second to Lamb of God is Send More Paramedics, I find they tick the same pace and vocals boxes.

What else should I look at?

These are both big names so chances are Spotify has already suggested them to you, but Amon Amarth and Arch Enemy spring to mind.

Thanks for the suggestions - so far it seems Arch Enemy are most aligned with what I'm looking for out of the things mentioned. Amon Amarth was a bit slow, Machine Head a bit melodic.

I also realised I might have been barking up the wrong tree with metal, I saw that Send More Paramedics were listed as 'crossover thrash' so I looked up some other bands purporting to be that genre. I found Attitude Adjustment and The Exploited to be very much up my street.

Give At The Gates a listen (start with Slaughter Of The Soul).

MH's discography is all over the place. Try either Burn My Eyes or The Blackening album (I do think LOG robbed their sound from the former).
