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

Also, anything by Mother, Mother.

Logic - Wu Tang Forever.

Such a solid track.

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.

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.

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

Carvings by Orbit Culture

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

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.

Nevertel - Everything in My Mind

Reminds me of the band Bad Omens

Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota, by Weird Al. It's such a fun painting of Midwest American culture

  • 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.

I’ve had Meat Magnet by Escuela Grind in heavy rotation since it came out recently. I’m not usually into grindcore but this song is catchy as hell.

Hero too - chrissy costanza as kyoka jiro

if you watched the MHA school festival arch, this song will hit extra hard.

Orange Blossoms by Goldford

Sleep Deprivation by Chance Peña

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

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.

Newly discovered Sierra Ferrell's cover of "Don't Let Me Down."

My friend recently put me on to this one: The Lantis - Lampu Merah
