RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

None to an unhealth amount this week =D

(Totally there wasn't a week where I played the same music 30+ times)

Been listening to early In Flames, before they turned alt metal.

While I couldn't possibly choose between Clayman (2000) and Colony (1999) for a prolonged period of time, these 2 albums have really shaped my music tastes.

As for the past week, I can't stop listening to Colony. It's just too good. If you want a sample, the most well-known song is Zombie Inc. Failing that, I really recommend Colony (the track).

I've been playing Beach Bunny on repeat this week, specifically the 2025 single "Year of the Optimist". (bandcamp link)

But the associated album Tunnel Vision (bandcamp link) has also been getting looped, with 9/10 songs being bangers.

Just a heads up, this Friday is a Bandcamp Friday where all payments go to the artist in full with no platform fees.

A friend of mine sent me some of his his recent find, Seb Lowe. A bit on the nose for me, but catchy.
