      Same, I have a playlist full of songs from games that I’ve played like Nier automata and Undertale. Used to think people who liked video game music were cringey until I started playing video games myself and found the songs very catchy

        The Nier automata soundtrack is on another level. What a collection of absolute masterpieces.

        Weight of the world still brings a tear to my eye.

          To me, it’s both Weight of the world and Song of the Ancients that makes me teary eyed.

      The soundtracks for almost any of the Guilty Gear games are just pure energy and fun and I totally recommend them

    When I was a pre-teen and teenager, pop-punk and emo were popular.

    Turns out I haven’t outgrown this genre. I now listen to more music from a variety of different genres and time periods, but ultimately, 80% of my library is still early 2000’s pop punk.

          I meant S-tier as in ranking. If you look at tier lists on the internet, they will often rank things using letters. I was basically just saying that I consider them to be bands of the highest tier, I’ve attached a link to show you what I mean.

        I just discovered them recently on a spotify suggestion. So glad. Sometimes things just work out. It’s a numbers game. I’ve probably turned away 95% of what spotify recommends. I’ve had premium for a decade and the discover weekly playlist is still hit or miss. Sometimes I see a pattern, like every other week there may be a good song.

      The PetroDragronic Apocalypse is one of the best records I’ve heard in some time, from any band, in any genre.

      I can’t stop listening to it. To add, I’m not really a fan of any of their other records. They’re clearly good, just doesn’t resonate with me as much as this one does.

    I still most often listen to Grunge and 90 Hard and Alt rock. According to tidal Pearl Jam is a little more than half of all my song listens every month.

    Side note, I think the collective noun for Lemmy users in any music thread should be Motorheads.

      I used to hate grunge and especially Pearl Jam as a kid, but the genre’s grown on me a lot the last couple years

    I’d say I used to listen to metal, but nowadays, I still listen to metal lol. Huge fan of Progressive Metal/Djent/Thall bands. Not much into Deathcore/Doom Metal lately however.

    At work tho, I tend to listen to a lot of instrumental stuff and genres vary greatly: mathrock, jazz, electronic, game/movie OSTs, blues, fusion, and among others.

    During drives, mainly depends on the mood, but mostly revolves around the above given genres.

    To name a few artists, I usually listen to the below (in random order):

    • Jakub Zytecki
    • Chon
    • Plini
    • Periphery
    • Necrophagist (when r u guys coming back 😔)
    • Dirty Loops
    • Up Dharma Down
    • Joji
    • Tycho
    • Sleep Token
    • Lorna Shore
    • Tom Misch

    Would love to share some more, but these are what I thought of at the moment.

    Gonna use this post as a chance to give a shout out to Electric Callboy which I recently gave a chance to after they kept popping up in my recommendations, they’re some sort of trance metalcore band, and boy do they have fun songs.

      Have you listened to Spitalfield? If not the album remember right now by them from 2002 is well worth a listen.
