Music! What's new and good?

[KaiserKris]

I'm just curious as to what (especially more recently released) music people are listening to here.

Me, I'm really enjoying the new Mastodon album. It also has a cover that's just begging to inspire a fantasy adventure.

It's a few years old now, but I really, really liked Meliora by Ghost. The single "Square Hammer" from the Popestar EP is also really good. Really fun music.

This isn't new... but it can inspire some fantasy, gritty gameplay...

Strangely, to me anyways, is I've really gotten into a performer by the name of Leo of Frog Leap Studios. I found him on Youtube doing covers. The first that got me to start listening to more, was his Metal cover of Adele's Hello. The guy doesn't have a great voice, just a solid one, and he can apparently play anything competently, if not great. Plus his videos are surprisingly well done and entiertaining in their own right. Anyways, for whatever reason that I have yet to identify, I've taken a really strong liking to his covers, both metal and Acoustic.

I can't say any of this is new (an it probably isn't for most people's taste here - but if inclinded give them a try) but is is what I'm into recently

Of course there is Steve N Seagulls - I posted a link a while back on their version of 'The Trouper'

Then there are

Two Chellos - you have to love someone (well 2 someones) that can rock out Thunder Struck, Hysteria and mix Led Zepp with Beethoven, on Chellos - Plus my daughters like them, so it helps keep me from being stuck with cutzie girl music in the car with them

Iron Horse - Blue Grass covers of ALL KINDS of music - Their Version of 'Enter Sandman' is almost as good as Metallica's original, and like I said, there is all kinds of music covered by them From CCR to 'Rocket Man' to Ozie and the list goes on.

Post Modern Juke Box - different artist (with the same guy playing piano in all of the covers as the driving force behind the idea/music) doing covers of stuff in odd styles that you'd never think of associated with the song - '1970s Soul' '1930s Jazz' 'Vintage Chicago' - Their version of 'All about that Bass' is great - never heard the original but I'm sure I like PMJ's version better, 'No rest for the Wicked' is good, and almost anything from them with "Puddle's Pity Party" as the lead singer is worth hearing

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - Straight up modern Jazz (not the over done 'Electro Jazz') - Again it is something my daughters (esp my older daughter) likes that keeps me from having to hear girlie music

Finally - Southern Raised - Modern Bluegrass Gospel - 3 sisters and their Brother straight out of Missouri Ozarks with amazing talent.

Oh yeah,

Pentatonix has done a cover of "Imagine" by the Beatles. The video is seriously powerful.

FWIW, "Imagine" was a John Lennon song from his post-Beatles career.

I pretty much listen to metal (death, doom or older thrash) and synthwave only.

BBVD is great! Amy and I used to swing dance to their stuff all the time. I'd love to see them live.

Rgr one cool to see them live. But, I'll admit I can't dance - heck I'm from Oklahoma and can't 2 step - so you have me beat on the swing dance to them
