Current Music Suggestions

So I want to share the music I’m listening to now and I’d love some suggestions from the community, and I know there is a “what are you listening to now” thread about this, but for someone who is trying to abstain from mainstream social media, the YouTube links immediately (without asking permission) direct me to the links. Maybe my setting are set for that but that thread is unusable for me currently!

So if you’d like to suggest music on this post my only requirement is that you do not post YouTube links, just a screenshot of the album cover, Spotify link, or even just written out! I appreciate in advance for the inconvenience!

This is my most recent find, Conflict DLC by Health! An amazingly heavy dark synthwave-esque album. They are going on tour next year, and I’ve already got 3 family members wanting to go when they come to town!

This type of music the perfect combination of electronic and metal, with a touch of ethereal vocals just puts the cherry on top!

i wish you luck, but i’m not sure this thread is going to work, the other thread as been consistently active for more than 7 years or something. The meme thread is better, but this is a close second.

I don’t really get it though, you don’t want to be tempted by a YouTube link? There are many options to protect you from looping into social media, have you considered those? I don’t see how the links are an issue now , with many options to block or organize our phones in a way to prevent access.

Have you listened to Cold just dropped a new album that’s all electronic no vocal. Also, could you provide more of your taste? I’m pretty good at recommending

Worth a shot I suppose! That is a long time, maybe time for a different option :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

Well it’s not just the temptation that’s the issue. I’ve been off of social media for a few months now because I have a serious issue with “doomscrolling” and controlling how much screen time while scrolling. And for me YouTube is had to resist watching video after video after video, so I just choose not to partake! The other part of it is that when I click that other thread I can’t even scroll without it taking me to YouTube link, then I click back, scroll to the next post and boom it happens again, I’ve tried to get through the thread a couple times but it’s just too much work to click back every time I see a new post. So it’s a bit of both things!

Feel free to post here if you’d like, I would love new music suggestions from anyone! And thanks for the input!

I have not, I’ll give that a listen, thanks!

Well I love electronic and metal genres, but I’d actually be more interested in what you enjoy listening to! Maybe a band you just found that you enjoy or a band that holds a place in your heart! Whatever works for me :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

Would a link to a Spotify playlist be welcome?

Ahh! Well thanks to the handy dandy edit button, I corrected my original “links” statement to “YouTube links”, so yes, a Spotify link would be welcome! :squinting_face_with_tongue:

Ok wow, both playlist are killer!

From the first playlist the song Vom anderen Stern by Alli Neumann was groovy as hell!! Can’t wait to listen to more!

And the second playlist was also really chill!

I found the track Cope by KYTES to be extremely upbeat and very relatable!

Thanks for the awesome playlists, I’m really excited to explore more of the music on them both!! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

Alli Neumann is the best. Love her!!

So I actually had heard some songs from The Plot in You, specifically “Feel Nothing” on their Dispose album is really sick!

I looked up In Flames and found their Foregone album artwork I found to be really dope so I listened to a few songs and really liked “Meet Your Maker”!

I also looked up Gemini Syndrome and really like the sound of “Zealot” from their Memento Mori album!

Great recommendations all around! Thanks again!
