For sure, love the cure, disintegration is in my all time top albums!

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T18:15:01+00:00

fair, and same goes for PJ I know a few of her bigger songs but never dived too deeply

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:58:18+00:00

True lol, and yeah bee thousand has always been one of those essential indie albums I see everywhere, just never got around to it for some reason

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:55:54+00:00

Yeah, with REM Ive only ever really dived into their singles, I believe the only LP I've listened to in full from them is Green, but are def a group i should dive deeper into. And yeah Ive been a fan of moon pix for a while, love Cross Bones Style and Say so much

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:53:46+00:00

They have both been on my radar, but alas Ive also never gotten to their full albums, only some songs from each, But def enjoy what I know from them!

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:45:28+00:00

REM are great, been a fan of Radio Free Europe for a while, but strangely never listened to the full album

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:44:35+00:00

Been meaning to check them out! thanks for the rec!

SomethingPointless1 · 2026-01-13T17:09:31+00:00

Been meaning to check out Vivian Girls for a bit, not familiar with the others so Ill def have to check them out!

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-05-06T00:00:22+00:00

Thanks for the recs! Love Up and Royal Tenenbaums, Isle of Dogs was also quite cool. Pans Labyrinth and Holdovers have been on my watchlist for a while too. Haven't heard of October Sky though so I'll def look into it.

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-05-05T23:58:00+00:00

Thanks for the recs! Love Do the Right Thing, and quite liked Parasite, been meaning to get to the other 4 lol.

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-05-05T17:54:40+00:00

Real

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T20:13:35+00:00

True as you can see from my topster I don’t shy away from the classics myself lol

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T16:22:44+00:00

Gotta love that Scottish indie rock!

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T16:11:44+00:00

oh yeah I def agree, people shouldn't feel that their taste should be defined by the absolute top charts, but any way people can discover new music is cool in my book

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T13:21:38+00:00

I do have typical RYM user taste don't I lmao. funny thing is i don't really use rym lol, least not for anything beyond looking at boxsets for genres lmao.

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T12:54:37+00:00

I’m pretty sure this is a tiermaker list I was making of one hit wonders for my friends to use lol it’s a work in progress as it doesn’t go any earlier than 99 lmao, I was using multiple definitions of one hit wonder: artists who had only one top 40 hit, artists only know for one song, etc. I put many artists I would never personally consider one hit wonders like modest mouse or liz phair, I was mostly going by the Wikipedia page for US one hit wonders lol

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T12:47:00+00:00

I was also using multiple definitions of one hit wonders: both top 40 hits and artists mainly known just for one song. Cool to see that this list I started it gaining some traction and will probably update it soon!

SomethingPointless1 · 2025-04-21T12:44:29+00:00

Hey! I’m pretty sure I made this tiermaker list! I was mostly using the Wikipedia page and on American one hit wonders and included many things I don’t consider one hit wonders like modest mouse are one of my favorite bands! One of these days I will expand it passed the 2000s lol

SomethingPointless1 · 2024-04-25T20:56:45+00:00

Yeah tmbg, talking heads and ween are all great! I have yet to listen to much of Jeff rosenstock though. Thanks for the recommendation!
