Thy Catalfque - A földdel egyenlo (Avant-Garde Black Metal)
Home is Where - yes! yes! a thousand times yes! (Emo/Post-Hardcore)
Killer Mike - RUN! (feat. Young Thug) (Rap/Hip-Hop)
I went through 13 albums that came out on Friday. Insane week for music depending on how varied your tastes are.
That Thy Catalfque song is cool. I’m going to check out the rest of the record. Glad to have found this!
Curious what the other 10 albums are that released Friday that you went through?
-Queens of the Stone Age - ...In Times New Roman
-Sigur Ros - Atta
-Heavenward - Pyrophonics
-Church of Misery - Born Under a Mad Sign
-Vulture Industries - Ghosts from the Past
-Creeping Death - Boundless Domain
-Saturnus - The Storm Within
-King Gizzard - PetroDragonic Apocalypse (I'm not writing the whole title)
-Royal Thunder - Rebuilding the Mountain
-Origami Angel - The Brightest Days (technically a mixtape and it is really short)
Though in all fairness. 2 albums leaked early so that gave me extra time. But the remaining 11 I've listened to since Thursday when albums start being released in Australia and New Zealand.

A few from me:
A Foul Form by Thee Oh Sees - From the eponymous album by Thee Oh Sees (Osees) released almost a year ago. Fast-paced, angry, low-fi hardcore. They're releasing a new album soon and have two singles out as well. The Oh Sees are similar to KGATLW in terms of output and variation across projects. They were also on their record label at one point.
Scary Monsters - I love how creepy this song is. And I love David Bowie.
Waltz #2 (XO) by Elliott Smith - I have been diving into folk recently, and Elliot Smith is a standout for me. Sadly, he passed away in 2003 by suicide (although some believe he was murdered by his GF, he had two stab wounds to the chest.) I'd def take recommendations on anyone's favorite folk artists as I am relatively new to the genre!
Thee Oh Sees are a band I’m still trying to find a decent entry point into. I’ve heard lots of comparisons to KGATLW in terms of output, and in fact I saw them perform a live set at a festival about a month ago! But to me it just seemed like a lot of noise and smashing and crashing with no rhyme or reason and I couldn’t get into it. Maybe I’ll check out this song you shared and keep trying.
I think Floating Coffin or Mutilator Defeated at Last are the best entry points. They're accessible and melodic. Maybe start with Floating Coffin, it is comparable to KGATLW's early stuff, and has a garage rock sound.
A Foul Form is a very heavy, anxiety-inducing hardcore album lol - but if you enjoyed the song I linked then you'd enjoy the album.
Awesome. I’ll give Floating Coffin a spin.
