Not Safe For Working Class - by Trashbag Ponchos
Low – Long Division (and actually any Low album at the moment)
I still remember when Double Negative was released, knocked me off my feet even as a long time fan of records like that and TWLITF. RIP Mimi 😢
A Boat On The Sea by Moron Police. Can't wait for their next album!
Free Throw - Those Days Are Gone.
It's just a solid album top to bottom and I've been vibing with it for awhile, now.
Right now either Persona by half alive or CHROMAKOPIA by Tyler the Creator
The Loop by Volkor x (available on Bandcamp)
Also on YouTube: Volkor X - The Loop [FULL ALBUM] (2023)

Great thread idea, I'm going to listen to a batch of these as they sound excellent! :)
For me I'm utterly loving the new Kim Deal* album "Nobody Loves You More" - it came out today, and oh yes it's good!
It's unexpected with style, almost 60s with brass and strings at times, then there's other songs that sound modern... and beyond making my ears happy, it's great songwriting :)

Kim Deal rocks! She is one of my all time favorites. I didn't know she was making music under her own name, I will have to check it out! Thanks!
So I went and listened to the tracks on her bandcamp page. And in a couple days I'll have the vinyl! What a weird album! I feel like it's bound to get many repeat listens. So much to take in!
Reminds me of listening to the Alvvays albums. Little awkward at first but clearly something unique and special!
So glad I read your post Go-on-a-steam-train
Ne Obliviscaris - Portal of I. A progressive extreme metal. If you want to give it a shot, listen And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope, to see if it is for you.
Honorific mention to Nirvana - All of us. This is not Kurt Kobain's Nirvana, but another band called that way back from 1967. Amazing soft psychedelic rock. The band's history is quite interesting as well, including a lawsuit against Kurt Kobain's Nirvana, and then also trying to cash out of KB's Nirvana popularity by launching a new album after several years of breaking up, in order to profit from confused customers. Then, last year they launched a new album, after 50+ years of their original break up (which I really enjoy as well).
Cursive - Devourer (sic?)
It's not my favorite album, but I have been listening to Marcy Playground by Marcy Playground a lot recently. It was one of my first favorite albums and still is.
I've been playing Yeule's softscars over and over for a few weeks now. I've never really been into shoegaze, but they put a really interesting twist on it that I've fallen in love with. The lyrics are very dark and personal, and it's a very heavy album - both musically and emotionally. Their videos all have really beautiful aesthetics, and I really love the late 90s/early 00s feeling in the video for dazies.
"Deathconsciousness" by Have a Nice Life. I described it to a friend as "nice music with which to smoke a joint and watch your life spiral into oblivion"
Mercury by Imagine Dragons
Who's Who Ulterior Motives baby!
Of all time, The Cure's Disintegration. Lately, it's been Kangding Ray's Zero. Exactly what you need from a great techno record
Sprints - Letter to Self
I've been beating Dance Gavin Dance's Jackpot Juicer to death recently, every time I listen to it my favorite song on it changes. Swallowed by Eternity goes HARD.
Big Wave by Tatsuro Yamashita
Destiny Potato - Lun
Upbeat: Kraftwerk - tour de france
Downtempo - a.s.o. - a.s.o.
Young Ejecta - Ride Lonesome has been my favorite for this month.
$uicideboy$ - G.R.E.Y.G.O.D.S.
Hand of Juno just released their first album, Psychotic Banana, and I've been binging it for a solid two weeks. Good mix of heavy and melodic, and good variation between songs. Got its hooks in me.
I will say, some songs are different enough that they almost sound like different artists, so if you check them out it's worth trying a few tracks. "Polline" and "Destroy the Line" are my favorite heavy songs. "The One", "We've Built the Line", and "Not a Game" are my favorites on the melodic side.
