Mondo Bongo by Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1iOAqqjd05k)

Or

Be more kind by Frank Turner (https://youtu.be/VwtAjv04pt8?feature=shared)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

the sound of be more kind reminds me of this song by Johnny Flynn for a tv show:

that is fantastic, I'm going to listen to that album now.

it reminds me of the end of some awesome action rpg I've been playing for 50 hours and defeated the boss and my character is walking off into the distance in the credits.

my first kiss at the public execution - The Blood Brothers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

that felt like something i had to endure, you listen to it a lot?

like his vocals and the music is good, no doubt, but do you find it pleasant to listen to? enough that you listen to it more than anyone else on the planet?

FACE!! by flatroom !!

because I'm the only fan of them on Deezer.

Enormous Penis by Da Vinchi's Notebook.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's #2 on my list, right after The Gates

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

The Gates is great too, but I love the happiness of Enormous Penis. I also love thinking of those guys with the enormous pickup trucks and how they would love to follow the advice in the song to make themselves happy, but can't.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

What does listening to that song do for your rage?

Collective Efforts - This Far

My proudest album discovery ever. The whole thing is a criminally overlooked masterpiece, in my opinion, but this song is how I found it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

nice, that is a comfortable listen, and the lyrical rhythm is so engaging, that bounce.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Why Worry by Set it Off has been on repeat lately.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Calexico - Flat Handed and on the Wing

One of my favorite things to do when a cover of painted black comes on a movie is to tell the person next to me what a good song it is and then ask them if rest of the music by the artist sounds like paint it Black.

"what? no, i mean, that's paint it black".

" I know, it was great. but do the rest of their songs sound like that?"

"No, that's like, paint it black, by the rolling Stones."

"who?"

"Great Summer" by What the Kids Want

Not because it's the song so listen to the most, but because it's the most obscure song I listen to frequently. It's on every "summer" mix I make and just an absolute banger.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (6 children)

Tom Cardy - Active Perception Check

It gets stuck in my head a lot and I end up just putting it on.

Also maybe Skrillex - Bangarang

Because my go-to thing is when I'm in the kitchen with my wife and daughter I'll yell "ALEXA! PLAY BANGARANG!" And everyone groans. And then we listen to EDM for as long as it takes for them to leave me to work in the kitchen alone.

Day After Day by The Alan Parsons Project. Story of my life, really.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Satan is Real by Kreator. I’ve just discovered them in the last couple of years, and they’re great, plus this video is very…something.

Oh that Royksopp is excellent.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

If I'm on a bus somewhere and put this song on, I can easily listen to this song on repeat for 45 minutes while I trundle along.

I've done that many times, it has the perfect mix of haunt and beauty and excitement.

Brill Bruisers by The New Pornographers.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well they did tell me I'm in the top 1% of listeners to Janelle Monae, but it would have to be someone lesser known.

Probably 3 Strikes by Joshua Ray Walker.
