I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Dire Straights, On Every Street.

Seven Spires!!!
If an evil spirit cast a curse on me that I cannot listen to anything but Seven Spires, I wouldn't be too bothered.
They're a symphonic metal band, they released an amazing album this year "A Fortress Called Home".
Blanco White, British artist with Spanish/Latin influence. 'The wind rose' from his EP is such a good song and I think it reflects his style still. https://open.spotify.com/track/2B2iGPBD6RBWJ11uxtb34t?si=GidmWC2uSoSiDvwbw8XmyQ&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A18WIUFEZRfWSRDhfnmO9NB
"Giordano's dream" (both parts) are an amazing listen too. https://open.spotify.com/album/0ZiiZQCm1aez7Kt77j78QG?si=5e5wSsbETP2dNLOLlMVxhg
Beborn Beton – Truth (Album)
I was listening to old punk rock (from my own collection, not some algorithmic channel) and Kamala's Too Nice by Screeching Weasel came on, which was really amusing in the current American political landscape. https://youtu.be/EjlhlqcCTjM
If you like this one you'll probably like the whole My Brain Hurts album.
Too many genres, artists, decades to choose one, I'll pick one, hope you'll enjoy. Cassius - The sound of violence
I don't know if I can pick a favorite artist, my tastes are too varied. There's a ton of good suggestions in this thread, so a couple album recommendations I have that I don't see are:
Mannheim Steamroller - Fresh Aire II
Rheostatics - Melville
Picking a favorite artist is hard, but I recently got a CD for the For Squirrels album Example a few days ago. Absolutely in love with it, every single song on it. Especially the CD version of Mighty K.C., which feels like an extended version of what plays during the official music video on yt.
Can't say who's my favorite, but they're definitely up there.
