Revamping my playlist - lemmels, give me all your suggestions!

Edit: THANK YOU ALL! I am taking all recommendations into consideration and will be giving them a listen sometime. I was a little overwhelmed hence my lack of response, but I greatly appreciate what you’ve written. (-:

Yes, this is a “suggest me songs” post. Only because I don’t know which other community is more appropriate.

I’m looking to revamp my main playlist and clean out songs I don’t revisit all that often. I was hoping you all could suggest some songs OR albums based on my current taste. The other reason I make this post is because I fear I’ll go my entire life without hearing fantastically underrated albums, and I know lemmists to have taste.

That being said, here are some of my favourite artists and albums:

  • Lana Del Rey
  • Marina and the Diamonds
  • The Bravery
  • “Disintegration” by The Cure
  • Foreign Air
  • Saint Motel
  • “How to be a Human Being” by Glass Animals
  • Garbage
  • Madonna, especially the albums prior to the 00s
  • Palaye Royale
  • Vendredi sur Mer

I am additionally looking for artists similar to Crystal Castles, Com Truise, and Cults. Anything indie / electro / disco / jazz / poprock / pop-punk is welcome. Honestly, y’all don’t even have to take into consideration what I’ve just listed. Just give me the best you’ve got! Cheers. (:

fossphi,

It’s only tangentially related to your picks, but I believe you might enjoy America Football (LP 1 in particular). Try them out :)

Strayce,

If you like Garbage you’ll probably like Curve.

BonesOfTheMoon,

You def need The New Pornographers on there.

RBWells,

Such good suggestions already. I am going to go in another direction - I like all the stuff you do, here are some artists from different genres not in your list, that I think you would like:

Durand Jones and the Indications

Leon Bridges

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

Fiona Apple, my kids are obsessed with her lately and it kind of opened my eyes to how good she really is.

And in the genres you do already love, Gossip (I am loving the new album) and Perfume Genius.

TheBananaKing,

You’re going to regret asking me this.

I’ve been listening to a ridiculous variety of music over the last few years; let me dig up some particular favourites. Total mixed bag and in no particular order, you get what you get. Probably some serious misses, but who knows what it’ll stir up in the algorithm :)

… okay, that should keep you going for a while :)

  • Stuck - Thirty Seconds to Mars
  • Cough Syrup - Young The Giant
  • Changes - Empire of the Sun
  • American Money - BØRNS
  • I just Wanna Shine - Fitz and the Tantrums
  • Talk Too Much - COIN

Also the “you can crash my car tonight” song from Coin. They are such simple music but just delightful.

ultranaut,

You would probably enjoy Alexandra Savior, The Last Dinner Party, and Roisin Murphy.

PrincessTardigrade,
  • “Worry” by Jack Garratt
  • “The Business of Emotion (feat. White Sea)” by Big Data
  • “In My Head” by Peter Manos
  • “Nancy Boy” by Placebo
  • “Daylight” by David Kushner
  • “Heroin” by Badflower
  • “Hell Is Around The Corner” by Tricky
  • “Good Luck” by Broken Bells
  • “Cellophane” by FKA Twigs

This is some of the stuff I’ve been listening to pretty consistently over the last year or so. I am excited to listen to everyone else’s suggestions because I need new tunes

mindbleach,

Linda Perhacs, e.g. “Hey, Who Really Cares?”

The Joy Formidable, e.g. “The Ever-Changing Spectrum Of A Lie.”

Bjork, e.g. “Bachelorette” or “Immature.” Really anything from Homogenic.

This Town Needs Guns, e.g. “26 Is Dancier Than 4.”

My Morning Jacket, e.g. “It Beats For You.”

Of Montreal, e.g. “It’s Different For Girls.”

The Moody Blues, e.g. “Your Wildest Dreams.” They had four decades of killer songs with no flawless album.

Supertramp, e.g. “The Logical Song.”

Animal Collective, e.g. “Did You See The Words.”

Jimmy Eat World, e.g. “Believe In What You Want.” Clarity is the best album that ever got a band kicked off their label.

We Were Promised Jetpacks, e.g. “Conductor.”

Band Of Horses, e.g. “Blue Beard.”

Should probably put some MGMT on there.

tamal3,

Rubblebucket, indie dance music from Vermont. Definitely go see them live next time they tour.

We have some similar tastes. I think you’ll like:

Borns

Florence and the Machine

Lorde’s 2021 album Solar Power

Spoon

Billy Raffoul

Hozier

Bishop Briggs

PaperTowel,

Vundabar is one my favorite indie bands. I love their new stuff, but I’d give the album Gawk a try first.

Today,

Do you like … St. Vincent The National Neutral Milk Hotel Dinosaur Jr. Spoon Wilco Echo and the Bunnymen Some of that’s pretty old, but so am I.

Brussels5728,

Electronic suggestion:

it’s hard to see color [When You’re So Impossibly Far Away*] - Jaron

Been my absolute favorite since it released.
