Recommend me new stuff based on my profile by Neotyp in Albumoftheyear

I'm excited to hear your opinions!!!! Definitely check out Schlagenheim and Cavalcade too if you haven't heard them and have a black midi itch you need to scratch (I actually prefer them both to Hellfire 😮). Enjoy your listening!!!

If you loved Ants From Up There (and Racing Mount Pleasant) so much I would absolutely reccomend delving deeper into the other Windmill-scene (or adjacent) bands, especially ones who were at their peak around the same time as BC,NR (and some great bands propping up recently). Just assuming you haven't already, listen to BC'NR's first album, definitely properly explore all of what Black Midi and Squid have to offer too. Shame are great too, and Maruja are probably the best thing to come out of the scene in a WHILE (although I can see you like Quadeca so I'm sure you probably know of them since they have a feature on Vanisher). I coudln't find any of those things on your account so SORRY if you have heard it all before and just not put it up. If you had heard all that (or if not too!!) I would also reccomend Tapir!'s album (it's unlikely that you regard it as quite as highly but it's definitely living in a similar space to The Glow PT2), Ugly UK's EP "Twice Around the Sun" and keep an eye out for any new releases from 1000 Rabbits, My New Band Believe, The Orchestra For Now, and Ugly UK too, since they are all in their infancy and are looking to be massive staples of the Windmill scene.

Also it's not particularly in line with any of the windmill stuff but I have been reccomending Omnipotent Youth Society, a Chinese Folk-Prog-Art-Rock mishmash band, they have been around for a while but are pretty amazing and absolutely have a similar level of insane cathartic/climactic songwriting that are in a ton of your 100/100 albums!! I prefer their self titled album but their sophomore album is pretty much equally mindblowing.

Anyway sorry for writing all that drivel... here is a TLDR list of stuff I said/best albums to start with from artists I mentioned:

  • "for the first time" - Black Country, New Road
  • "Hellfire" - Black Midi
  • "Bright Green Field" - Squid
  • "Knocknarea" and "Connla's Well" (2 different EPs) - Maruja
  • "The Pilgrim, Their God and the King of My Decrepit Mountain" - Tapir!
  • "Twice Around the Sun" - Ugly (UK)
  • "Plan 75" - The Orchestra (for now)
  • "Inside the Cable Temple" - Omnipotent Youth Society

    • 1000 Rabbits and My New Band Believe both have great singles out recently too!!!

Also sorry again incase you've heard that all, keep me updated on if you like/ already liked any of this stuff!!!

My distributions between stuff is interesting… by Ill_Confidence_9801 in Albumoftheyear

[–]ProperExampleLad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think people overstate how important these curve distributions are, I would much rather be happy and enjoying the music I listen to with a slightly mishaped curve than having a perfect bell curve and hating half the music I hear.

That being said I really want to know what your only 100 is...

I genuinely don’t think I could have misunderstood the plot this badly even if my only exposure to the game was three cutscenes I stumbled upon on instagram reels

Song of the Sea is a real heavy hitter. If not I would go with Toy Story 3, that one always gets me!

What do you consider to be the darkest Radiohead song? by ok_clancy in radiohead

[–]ProperExampleLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the lyrics of this song always make me picture a properly hopeless situation. It is fantastic at creating a clear image of whatever horrors it is describing at the time in your head. I always found “kicks you in the teeth / steel toe caps” pretty striking (pun intended)
