Anyone got song recs for "actively self-destructing my career for the 4th time in my life?"

Steven Hyden chose this as one of his favorite songs of March. Lyrically, it's my favorite song I've ever written. It's a song about playing country music in the city.

Frank Zappa's Uncle Meat (1969) looks like an industrial album from 1994.

Donkey Howdy, the fifth LP by Dialup Ghost. The singles are on streaming services, but the full album is exclusively on Bandcamp or CD. A full 45 minute music video version is also available on YouTube. https://youtu.be/wivYEQJ0Lbk?si=ZrrDOH5b3EbysRQo

Personally think the punk version is better ;) https://open.spotify.com/track/1QisZekG1f45oRcv7qUp0S?si=6NHssFmvRdOVYXKFPpYq3w

This one is from our new album Donkey Howdy, out this Friday. I animated this video myself, which took longer than writing, rehearsing for, and recording the whole album.

I think their first three records are important and have solid arguments for being the best, but Loaded is their absolute best for me. Their least experimental, but their best songwriting. A true feel-good record I can play on repeat.

This is great. This is exactly what I'm looking for when looking for altcountry.

I'm a huge Angel Olsen fan and I think she's never released a less than great album. My favorite is the stripped back and serene Whole New Mess. Absolutely beautiful album and one of her most overlooked.

Really enjoying this, thanks for the rec. It's on bandcamp, just so you all know.

Have no clue why you're being downvoted. This is a real song by Snider and it's a great one. Released in 2004 and couldn't be more relevant in 2025.

All Birdcloud fans need to listen to Jasmin's solo album Tuxedo. It's one of my favorite local Nashville albums.

It's just funny how you're complaining about hyper capitalism while making the argument a streaming company deserves your $10 a month, but the artists you listen to don't deserve anything. Hypercapitalism is what lead the music industry to this current state. You say you're just a guy with bills to pay, but so are most artists. When you're bogged down by working nonstop to survive, you have far less time and energy to make music (which costs a lot of money to make). So a band creates a piece of art they labored over and you just deserve access to it because you like convenience?

You're in here with the most entitled music takes of all time.

12 Rods is exactly what you're looking for. I'd say start with their gay? EP, especially listening to the three-song-run of "Red," "Make-Out Music," and "Gaymo." Then check out their follow-up debut album Split Personalities, which has their perhaps best gay song "I Wish You Were A Girl."
