when the dreampop has indistinguishable vocals and you cant find the lyrics anywhere and you will never know what the singer is singing>>>>>>>>>

death grips x warrior cats in such a cool combo... so many artists whose music i don't see often in wc animations for whatever reason 🙏🙏🙏maybe the overlap between cat artists and music nerd-adjacent people is smaller than i thoughr

I love Starset as a concept band because most concept bands design characters around the members and are all about the band themself and their stories as protagonists; Starset's like "let us tell you about this cool heroic sci fi rebellion-- oh, us? Idk, they just hired us."

YOU NEVER SHOULD SETTLE FOR THE LIFETIME THAT IS HANDED TO YOU

THERES ALWAYS A LINE TO BE CUT AND SOMEONE TO BARRLE THROUGH

AND IF YOU SHOULD FIND THAT YOU’RE ABOUT TO GET THE SHORT END OF THE STICK

TAKE WHAT YOU WANT RETURN WHAT YOU GET

can u recommend some bands? i think i like ur music taste and i am terrible at finding music

ty :)

of COURSE I can <3 you’ve probably heard of some of these, but maybe there’ll be some you haven’t! I don’t know what you already like, so… here we go :)

Hozier. Yeah this was always going to be first on the list I’m currently listening to basically nothing else! He’s an Irish folk/soul/blues/etc idk musician who uses a lot of religious and mythological themes in his lyrics and has a lot of songs that include social justice commentary.

The Amazing Devil is a folk rock band with an incredibly unique sound. Their songs are incredibly emotional and have an awesome fantasy vibe going on—plus there’s two singers, and they often sing independently from each other, which is something you don’t see often!

Good Morning Bedlam is a bluegrass band that I’ve gotten into recently! They’re sort of like… a mix of the amazing devil and the crane wives?

The Crane Wives, while we’re at it, and

The Oh Hellos. they’re fairly similar and I don’t have a ton to say about their stylistic differences, but they’re all definitely worth checking out!

Florence & The Machine. Most people have heard of them but I always like to recommend them anyway

Alec Benjamin, if you’re into softer indie music! He has a lot of different styles of lyrics, but his voice is consistent, so he’s great to listen to if you’re looking for that sort of variety.

Chxrlotte doesn’t have a lot of music out, but I’m a big fan of the music she has released, including the ones about Good Omens! The others are more angsty which I love too.

The Family Crest is an orchestral indie pop rock band, which blows my mind. I can’t believe orchestra isn’t a more utilized tool in popular lyrical music, because they do it so well.

Good Kid is actually my brother’s favorite band, and I love them too. They’re also indie rock, but they have a very distinctive style and are easy to get into! Plus they haven’t released a shit ton of songs like some other artists, so it isn’t overwhelming to explore their discography.

Jonatha Brooke is an artist I only know about because my mom liked her music a lot in the 90s, but she’s got a super nice voice and has some awesomely relatable lyrics. I especially recommend her album Ten Cent Wings!

Midlake is a super melodic folk rock band. I’m obsessed with their album The Courage of Others, which has a melancholy vibe that’s super easy to get lost in.

Palaye Royale is harder rock than anyone else on the list so far, but they’ve got an awesome style. Unique voice and definitely darker themes in their lyrics.

Tears for Fears is a pop rock band that I love because my dad does. (My parents are musicians—I trust their music taste).

Toad the Wet Sprocket got their name from Monty Python, but PLEASE go listen to the Architect of the Ruin EP. You will not regret it. Also the song Something’s Always Wrong is like… entrenched in my very being.

Elbow is a band that I never see in fandom circles, but they’re definitely not obscure. Check out their album Little Fictions! They’re kind of like Midlake.

Will Wood ranges from chaotic and fun (The Normal Album) to absolutely soul-crushing (in case I make it)! Sometimes even both at the same time!

(I would’ve also put Paramore, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and other rock/pop punk bands I like on there, but I assumed you already know them.) (If you were looking for harder rock or metal, let me know, because this list is not that.)

If you want more genre-specific recs or even album/song recs, don’t hesitate to ask!! Music is the fuel of my soul.

Chaos and Creation in the Backyard (2005) by Paul McCartney

Exploring the tracks that made up the title of this album last week, I had an idea for a full reading and so, I took to Microsoft Powerpoint once more to organize my thoughts. Please read and enjoy!

[charlott2n]

Hiii what do you think about Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd? I just got really into it, I love Crazy Diamond Part 1 a lot

yessss great album. classic for a reason :)

crazy diamond is fantastic. i see this local pink floyd cover band about once or twice a year and they always drop a big reflecting slowly rotating disco ball during that song and its such a cool effect. i have video actually ill post it if i can find it.

have a cigar is also really great. i love that they could be a little tiny bit sorta funky. i love the guest vocalist roy harper

title track is good but in a way that doesnt really grab me personally but like i absolutely get why its big? maybe its just that ive heard it so much and it doesnt really have the same effect. i mean i have absolutely cried listening to it though. i have many people who i wish were here lol. so its a good song all in all just not one of my favorites by them or anything

welcome to the machine

[starlingpaw]

say hello... it's you!

new imaginaldiskified au cinderheart design yipee

old one [from a month or so ago]

i tried simplifying her design, and while i may have left out some elements [for example, the disk pattern in her tail, her more snow leopard-like appearence....] i think the new one looks much more cohesive ^^

btw the scar on top of her head isn't canon, part of the au

music talk time! imaginal disk is such a wonderful album,, i love its themes and it's just banger after banger of silly pop songs... i decided to check out this project after it dethroned the new sound both on rym and aoty [i'm not one to keep up with what's popular on those sites but man everyone was going feral about this record], surely it couldn't be that good, right??? it is... i didn't fully appreciate the album on my 1st listen but i knew it had replaying potential and it just keept getting better with each listen😭😭😭😭!!! check it out if you have time to do so!

also is no one gonna talk about how weird this entire plot was??? cinderpelt lived a fufilling life and did not need to posess the body of a random child..

[radiocmyk]

Which song is your #6 or #14 or whatever isn't interesting to me; I wanna hear where in your list the first song from each of your top 5 artists shows up. Or the last one

[sleepinginmygrave]

i will never shut up about chromakopia btw . it's such a masterpiece !! album of the year to me
