Played Fortnite Festival and discovered "The Search" by NF. What a banger!

  I went thru many of his songs after discovering "The Search". "When I grow up" is great ... the subtle comedy in the kitchen scene is brilliant. He's quite the lyrical genius!

Mr. Fear, by SIAMÉS. They're a great band.

Also, anything by Mother, Mother.

5
I just Recently discovered Lu Kala, and Hotter Now is now in my heavy rotation.

For some reason I'm particularly keen on Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Murder on the Dancefloor at the moment. No idea why but it did just turn 20 years old.

4
- Do you mean muhdah on the donce floor? I love that too. She does some great Covid streams with her kids discoing in their home.

Stan Qualen by The Southern River Band. I love their brand of rock

Edit: https://youtu.be/62Vfzet8XIA

Disco Ulysses - Vulfpeck

Been on a big King Crimson kick lately and I just fucking loooove Three of a Perfect Pair. Holy stink it's so good. https://youtu.be/QdMHy074kNc

4
- That whole album is sooo good but this song is a definite favorite.

Stick Season by Noah Kahan

Not a type of music I listen to a lot, but I've had this song on repeat recently

4
Soup for my Family by Pigeon Pit

3
- Can't say I was expecting to find pigeon pit in this section, but that is a very good song!
  
  2
Carvings by Orbit Culture

Found this in a Melodic Death Metal compilation video last week and can't stop listening to it.

3
- I have to question putting Orbit Culture on a melodeath compilation. While it worked out for you, unless the one who made the compilation is trying to give curveballs to the listener, it's a weird addition.

Thanks everyone for all these suggestions, some really interesting stuff here (and some shite 😂)

I've been playing the new Hellripper album a lot. Throwback speed metal like it's the 80s again

Hellripper - I, The Deceiver

2
- If you like Hellripper, you might want to give Pest Control a blast. Modern take on 80's crossover thrash.

- Check out Bewitcher also

i've been getting back into Big Band Swing in general, but Andy Kirk and the Twelve Clouds was a special group, and one of their pianists Mary Lou Williams was a true pioneer of jazz solo improvisation.. still mind blowing to hear..

Walkin' and Swingin' is a good one..

Close to Five is just badass

2
Einar Solberg - A Beautiful Life

Powerful, beautiful and brilliantly sung. I love it.

2
Lauren Babic’s cover of “What was I made for?”…really suits my holiday mood.

Hot Mulligan - John "The Rock" Cena, Can You Smell What The Undertaker

Whole album is so good. I didn't think I'd ever like screamy music but it is not overdone.

Orange Blossoms by Goldford

Sleep Deprivation by Chance Peña

Discovered them last week and I've had them in my rotation since.

1
Can't explain it but I've been listening to Slipknot's Psychosocial and Portishead's Roads a lot lately, after not hearing them for a few years.

1
https://youtube.com/@MrMoMMusic pretty much everything on here

1
A Long December (Counting Crows)

Soul Asylum's cover of Rhinestone Cowboy.

The former is ever relevant, the latter is somehow both a total reimagining of the song and true to the original.

Yeah, I date myself with both of those. Yeah, I was probs in HS for both of them.

That, and Good Riddance / Time of your Life (Greenday). I understand it was supposed to be a sarcastic dig at a woman. But that's not how audiences largely heard it, and it became the legit, totally unironic anthem of a certain generation that I am abs not a part of.

Also... There's a completely random punk band no one but me has ever heard of (Ruth Ruth), and their album Laughing Gallery has been by my side at some of my lowest points over the years. Wish I could let 'em know the impact they had in making sure I pushed through some of the worst periods.
