Anxiety attack by Jeffrey Lewis
Yes, of course! Half of the music i listen to is instrumental.
That was a good song. It gives me vibes of melancholy and longing.
Memo From Turner from the soundtrack of the movie Performance.
It sounds like The Rolling Stones but it’s only Mick, plus Ry Cooder on slide guitar.
I like the mix of speaking voice and singing here. Also the pitch “issues” of both the slide and Jagger add to the song—almost microtonal vibes.
Most music I like is considered obscure by my friends…
Idk how obscure it is but FIGURE IN THE BACKGROUND by Snake Pool
This is a fun one. The driving beat from the drums and the bouncing bass make me smile and it’s impossible not to tilt my head back and forth to the beat.
Isotopic shift
By pyromed
This almost gives me horror vibes due to being very busy and the wavering pitches on the synths. Reminds me of Stranger Things. lol
Abortive Gasp - Psychogod. Someone posted this to !gothindustrial@lemmy.world last year. I was the only person to upvote and comment on it. 1K people upvoted it on youtube, but that’s over 6 years. I don’t know anything else about this group.
This is interesting. It’s like dark-trance music. Also, is it Psychgod or Psychogod? Sounds like they’re saying Psychgod and that’s what’s in the background as well.
The Forgetting Room by Seeming
Alopecia by Why? (Surprise it’s an entire album)
But if you only want one song from it try Torpedo or Chron’s
My favourite “obscure” artist right now is a Vancouver band called Slightest Clue. Post/Punk alternative group.
That one is great!
I keep mis-remembering one line as “I’m not unreasonable, I mean at some point you’re gonna hafta die”
Ramsey Midwood, Feed my Monkey
Damn near every song by Joshua Ray Walker
Yannis and the Yaw, Clementine
Showing my age here, but Michael Caine by Madness.
I dunno if it would be classed as obscure any more seen as it now has over 2m plays, but when I first heard it 4 years ago it was for sure obscure.
A great one for your Halloween playlists is “The Crazy” by The Children MacNuggits.
But if you want even more obscure, a college friend of mine started a homebrew record label and got every band on campus to submit their best track for a compilation… and then he did it five more times
Twenty years later, I still listen to some of these songs daily, but especially: (warning, these are download links, not streaming)
Cold Heaven - “Eurydice”
The Heavy Pets - “(A Dragon’s Just) A Dinosaur in Drag”
Zinc Finger and the Major Groove - “Too Much of a Girl”
The Passerines - “Young”
