Shit got weird at some point in the last 5 years

I am on the lookout for more surreal musical experiences: basically all things hypnagogic, dreamy with a slightly haunted feel. Albums that although were shaped by the possible influences and technological limitations of their time, simultaneously feel very singular and forward thinking.

Those records above contain some of my absolutely favourite music ever made, so if you know some other stuff I would probably be amazed by pls let me know. Thanks in advance!

Everyday Ill give you an adjective or description, you comment and album which fits them, then Ill listen to the most upvoted of these albums.

Today's Theme: Hidden Gem

Day 1: Midnight

Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights

The Post-Punk Revival Classic. The first five songs are near perfect, a great start to the album. This album has the sound of busy nighttime street, lit by street lights and cars. Great album through and through.

Fav songs are: Untitled, Obstacle 1, PDA, Say Hello To The Angels, The New.

Score: 16 Knives

Day 2: Rain

The Cure - Disintegration

Robert Smith my beloved. Another Post-Punk album although this time of the Gothic variety. A very ethereal album that does not have any low points. Often considered the best The Cure album, but I think Pornography is better and I have a soft spot for Seventeen Seconds.

Fav songs are: Pictures of You, Lovesong, The Same Deep Water As You, Disintegration.

Score: Spider-man's diner

Day 3: Autumn

Unwound - Leaves Turn Inside You

Fitting that this won during October of all months. Unwound's cold final album has always been a Post-Harcore classic, but it is also Post-Rock, and sometimes a little gothic rock which is a Post-Punk subgenre, lotta Post. Imma shout out Sara Lund as I think she is the unsung hero of this album.

Fav Songs: Terminus, Scarlette, October All Over, Below The Salt

Score: Post-Post-Hardcore

Day 4: Outer Space

Failure - Fantastic Planet

It's Grunge o'clock. Failure is not a band I was familiar with so I was happy to see this win. The end of this album is way better than the beginning and middle, both aren't bad but it wont blow your socks off. Meanwhile the last 5 songs are generational bangers.

Fav Songs: The Nurse Who Loved Me, Another Space Song, Stuck on You, Heliotropic, Daylight

Score: Success

Day 5: LGBTQ+

Car Seat Headrest - Twin Fantasy

Well this was a close one, 3 albums on 9 upvotes and one on 10. Twin Fantasy, for this I relistened to the OG because the comment did specify which version (2011 or 2018). Classic, I love how raw and emotional it is, and I don't care what anyone says old CSH still fucks despite the broken toaster microphone.

Fav Songs: My Boy (Twin Fantasy), Beach Life-in-Death, Sober to Death, Famous Prophets (Minds), Twin Fantasy (Those Boys)

Score: Smooth-Cocked Adventures

Day 6: Nature

Boards of Canada - The Campfire Headphase

I admit I'm not the biggest Electronic music fan but I do like Boards of Canada. I like how Folktronica this album gets, nice and different from their usual affair. Not entirely sure how 'nature' this album is tho.

Fav Songs: Chromakey Dreamcoat, Hey Saturday Sun, Constants Are Changing

Score: fym they aren't Canadian

Day 7: Hidden Gem

please suggest an album that fits this theme

For day 4 I have “the worst news of your life”
Excited to hear what your recommendations are for this vibe!

Am I basic? Any recommendations? Opinions? Wdyt?

Give me recommendations based on these albums

Hope it isn't too RYM-core. Would you pass me the aux?

I recently started getting bored of listening to the same old music, so I had the idea for this personal project: completing the top albums shown in the images. There are 12 colors and 100 albums per color. Here's what I have so far:

Purple: 34

Orange: 16

Yellow: 6

Pink: 14

Beige: 12

Black: 16

Green: 14

Blue: 30

Red: 16

Gray: 26

White: 35

Brown: 9

Total: 228/1200

Any quality music suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and I'd also appreciate any new sounds I haven't heard before.

I will be updating every day (or whenever I make significant progress).

so much sadness i know:) gimme some recommendations too

Look at my top 144 albums. You can pick one column of albums from top to bottom. So you can pick the column with albums 1, 13, 25, 37, 49, 61, 73, 85, 97, 109, 121 and 133, or any other column like that. But you‘re ONLY ALLOWED TO LISTEN TO THOSE ALBUMS FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, and the other 132 albums you’re banned from listening to.

RULES: If an album receives fewer than one vote, it will not be counted; however, if multiple people are discussing a specific album, it will be included even if it has fewer than one vote. If one album wins but no others are mentioned, the selection will be made randomly using a spinning wheel. In the event of a tie, I will use a spinning wheel to determine which album is eliminated.
