This sub has worked wonders for my last request, so I'm trying it again!

I've been listening to a lot of French post punk, specifically what some call Cold Oi! I guess one of the more well-known bands internationally is Syndrome81.

Although I love Syndrome, Oi Boys and the like, I am looking for something slightly heavier. I am absolutely in love with the riffing of Rancœur and Cran. At times, it almost sounds like a mix of that post punk/cold oi with the style of Brutus, and I can't get enough of it.

Songs for reference:

Rancœur - Imposteur

Rancœur - L'Enfer

https://youtu.be/DaFFPIr1s3Q?is=QR-6s8SN0jcu3cb3

Cran - Natë (album)

https://youtu.be/LeGn7Wkn0ok?is=upv61DE-kCgDZG0X

Female-fronted metal in the style of Brutus is also welcome, although there I am looking for something very similar to Brutus and Cavern, for example.

Cavern - Dove

Thanks again in advance :)

I have never heard a Roxy Music or any other bands song that sounds like this. Truly one of a kind.

Does anybody know any songs that sound almost exactly like stratosphere? I see that this question has been asked before but i dont see good recommendations in the replies. I want songs that give off the same vibe where i can just drown in. Please help🙏

I've been on the hunt for more songs with qualities like this. The lyrics themselves don't need to be dark or haunting, but more the quality/sound of the vocals. Thanks!

Pretty much the title, what's the closest I can get to the synthesizer sound of

Lost Sounds - I get nervous

or at the end of Pisse - Work Life Balance

?

Thanks in advance, apparently what is tagged as "synth punk" on bandcamp doesn't quite scratch my itch.

Looking for something with a similar pace and a somewhat simple tune. The lyrics especially are what I like, a very sweet love song. By and By from Caamp is another example of the vibe I’m looking for.

Edit: phrasing

My absolute favourites:

the beach boys
the beatles
paul simon
stevie wonder
Prince (until late 90s)
The Who
Fleetwood Mac
Elton John
George Michael

I am fully aware this is quite a narrow taste, though i have been trying to vary genres a bit- i just can’t get over the 60s/70s/80s time period. Im trying to vary more - obviously some more from this time period, especially black music like soul/jazz fusion/funk ??? especially more recent stuff tho, i just can’t get into it however many times i try.

Repost since the mods took down the last one for a couple too many examples

If I like Sanrio girl by Gezebelle Gaburgably, does anyone else know any similar songs?

I liked Lana first, and then progressed to Fiona when I got tired of waiting for her latest album. And quickly after, I got into Björk, and I've really liked the avant-garde sense of her music(Medulla is my favorite album by her). And I'm slowly getting into Tori Amos, FKA Twigs(the one I'm getting into the most so far), and occasionally Kate Bush. Are there any other artists to recommend that I haven't thought of yet? Also I'd rank the three Björk, Lana del Rey, and Fiona Apple from most enjoyed to least.

Since the live record came out I must’ve listened to it like 20 times, love the whole thing but “Vines” is just special, what else should I listen? I’m also really into Leonard Cohen, Nick Drake, Red House Painters/Sun Kil Moon, Songs: Ohia, and The Mountain Goats

Have very quickly and randomly fallen in love with these artists (especially Oklou), despite them being the antithesis of my usual tastes. I'm now curious of other artists that may be like them. And if there are specific songs or albums you suggest, please let me know. Thanks in advance! :)

Blessings - Calvin Harris
Don’t believe it - John Summit
Favour - FISHER

i'm looking for a song that sounds like the beginning of me!me!me! before the 0:55 beatdrop
i love how pop, sparkly, and catchy it sounds ^{(the closest thing i've found so far is Nimbasa CORE})

if anyone has any song recommendations that give a similar feel, please let me know! thank you!

Never met a main character in any media I vibe with more than Vash. I originally didn’t really vibe with the show but as I learned more about him I feel like he may be my favorite character in fiction.

What other characters or media have a main character that’s so angelic?

I'm looking for recommendations of 80s songs similar to these two. Songs that are quite long with multiple different sections, quite layered production and heavy synth and drums. Hope that makes sense!

i want suggestions of movies that is shot and feel like entergalactic. i want it to match the similar vibes of entergalactic

Hit me with some recommendations. Just don't recommend me more Devin Townsend, I've obviously been down that road many times. I like the atmosphericness, the ambient parts and aspects of it, the vocals, the way that it's structured and the way that it comes across as kinda shoegazey metal without being Blackgaze or Doomgaze or what have you. It's got this otherwordly liminal quality to it, like the ocean, or like being outside at night when time seems to stand still.

I think Rescue Me was pretty unique in how it blended dark humor, especially the ball-busting and politically incorrect humor, with genuine drama. It's a style of humor that I'm not even sure exists much anymore, at least not in the same way.

I'd definitely be interested in hearing recommendations for other shows that capture something similar, even if they're older. What I'm particularly looking for is that natural back-and-forth between guys who constantly give each other a hard time, insult one another, and bust each other's balls, but still genuinely like each other, have each other's backs, and can work together when it matters.

I think what made Rescue Me stand out was how naturally that humor flowed into the drama. It didn't feel like the jokes were forced or that the characters were constantly trying to be funny. It just felt like the way those guys interacted with each other.

Ideally, I'd like something with that same combination of humor and drama, but I'm open to other genres, even sci-fi, if they capture that particular dynamic.

It's really more about the style of humor and the camaraderie than the setting itself. That mixture of relentless ball busting, genuine affection, and the ability to get serious when necessary is what I'm looking for.

I'm making a specific playlist, and Spotify's recommendations are all Trash and nothing like these

• Vertigo by Lost Stars
• Electric by Sam Tinnesz
• Danger to myself by the unlikely candidates
• Feelings by Nightbreakers

what other songs would you suggest? I just want ones that are really really similar in vibe, but I've got nothing

If I like

• Fred Again..
• Odesza
• Basement Jaxx
• Chemical Brothers
• Daft Punk
• Sofi Tukker
• LP Giobbi

What should I listen to next?

I really don't know how to pinpoint exactly what I like about this song but I'll try. Whether I'm lying in bed or driving through a forest at night, I can always play this song and it sets the whole mood. It's not some background music. It's creating a heavy atmosphere that drowns out all my thoughts while still being sedative. I really love it for that. I also really adore the soundscape (especially the guitar and synth) and the speed / vocal range of the vocals.
