        I just discovered them recently on a spotify suggestion. So glad. Sometimes things just work out. It’s a numbers game. I’ve probably turned away 95% of what spotify recommends. I’ve had premium for a decade and the discover weekly playlist is still hit or miss. Sometimes I see a pattern, like every other week there may be a good song.

      Dang I only really recognize Sleep Token, Soen, and Persefone from this list. All S-tier bands, I’ll have to check out the rest.

          I meant S-tier as in ranking. If you look at tier lists on the internet, they will often rank things using letters. I was basically just saying that I consider them to be bands of the highest tier, I’ve attached a link to show you what I mean.

    When I was a pre-teen and teenager, pop-punk and emo were popular.

    Turns out I haven’t outgrown this genre. I now listen to more music from a variety of different genres and time periods, but ultimately, 80% of my library is still early 2000’s pop punk.

    I’d say I used to listen to metal, but nowadays, I still listen to metal lol. Huge fan of Progressive Metal/Djent/Thall bands. Not much into Deathcore/Doom Metal lately however.

    At work tho, I tend to listen to a lot of instrumental stuff and genres vary greatly: mathrock, jazz, electronic, game/movie OSTs, blues, fusion, and among others.

    During drives, mainly depends on the mood, but mostly revolves around the above given genres.

    To name a few artists, I usually listen to the below (in random order):

    • Jakub Zytecki
    • Chon
    • Plini
    • Periphery
    • Necrophagist (when r u guys coming back 😔)
    • Dirty Loops
    • Up Dharma Down
    • Joji
    • Tycho
    • Sleep Token
    • Lorna Shore
    • Tom Misch

    Would love to share some more, but these are what I thought of at the moment.

      Woah, I’ve actually been to a Chon show. Totally didn’t expect to see that band pop up in this thread

          They were great. I think it was around 2015-2016, and I still have a Chon pin from the show too!

    The band Sleep Token has been a majority of my played music for over a month now, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. I mostly listen to stuff like Metalcore, Deathcore, Djent, Nu Metal, Prog, Instrumental, I love metal covers of pop songs. Also like hard dance, dubstep, DnB, some pop, some rap, most anything as long as it isn’t tasteless.

    Mostly rock. Specifically love 80s hair metal and hard rock, and prog rock/metal. Lately I’ve had Sleep Token albums on constant rotation.

    Last four concerts were Erykah Badu, Blood Red Shoes, Marcy Playground and Tears for Fears. They were all amazing and you can’t really go wrong with any album from any of them.

    I almost exclusively listen to video game music. I’ve been listening to a lot of music from Pokemon Black and White lately.

      The PetroDragronic Apocalypse is one of the best records I’ve heard in some time, from any band, in any genre.

      I can’t stop listening to it. To add, I’m not really a fan of any of their other records. They’re clearly good, just doesn’t resonate with me as much as this one does.
