I got really into Flopsy’s Dream and their debut album Pleasant Pudding last summer.
It’s the secondary project of Tom Davies, a Geoguessr YouTuber I’ve been following for years. Soft, laid-back rock that hit the spot just right for me.
Oh God so many
Lebrock
Fm84
Przm
Dylan Gossett
Ryan Birmingham
Billy strings
So many more but these are what comes immediately to mind.
I think for me that might be Unleash the Archers. I ended up looking through their discography and while their earlier stuff was a tad rough, everything from the album “Apex” onward is great. The quintessential UtA single for me is Awakening.
Electric Callboy!!
They’re a German electronicore band who fuses metal, EDM and techno and they’re pretty fun/funny
Don Broco. Nightmare Tripping released yesterday.
Wooze. Put their entire discography on a playlist, hit shuffle. You’re welcome.
Battle Tapes. Their latest album is a few years old, but it’s solid all the way through. Their entire discography is also worth it, though.
They are Gutting a Body of Water
Men I Trust
Haywire. Musically they might not hit me as deep and profound as say, Bad Religion. But for live show intensity… Fuck, it’s like the 90s again. A sweaty crush of humanity getting their eardrums blown while someone back-flipping off the balcony knocks their teeth out. Fun for all ages!
Castle Rat: Medieval Fantasy Heavy Metal. I would say more Rock than metal, and kind of an 80s feel.
They are incredible. Great music, fun lyrics, presence and themes to their shows.
Also shout out to MIRE and their new album. Heavy metal.
A friend told me about Bad Omens (metal) and I’ve been listening to them. I don’t usually like heavy music these days, but sometimes it can be cool and they have some clever lyrics.
Ladrones
I don’t know Spanish.
Fluisteraars and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (specifically the microtonal albums).
More artists than bands, but:
Lubalin and Su Lee
Kyuss
