# Music I'm listening to
**various Electric Guitar-adjacent music**:
- Even In Arcadia - Sleep Token [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Sleep+Token/Even+In+Arcadia)
  very unique album with lots of influence from other genres: r&b/rap parts, pop choruses (kinda), metal breakdowns, this album is a roller coaster.
  Favorite Song: Gethsemane
  Favorite Breakdown: Caramel (the ending part)

- Take Me Back To Eden - Sleep Token [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Sleep+Token/Take+Me+Back+to+Eden) (can I list two albums from the same artist? sure!)
  More of the classic Sleep Token style with epic metal breakdowns and emotional lyrics.
  Favorite Songs: Euclid, Take Me Back To Eden, Rain
  Favorite Breakdown: Take Me Back To Eden

- The Return of The Black - Imminence [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Imminence/The+Return+of+The+Black)
  Sounds like Sleep Token but heavier and more Metalcore influence. If Vore is your favorite song on TMBTE, check out this album (specifically Desolation)
  Favorite Song: Heaven Shall Burn

- A Kiss for the Whole World - Enter Shikari [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Enter+Shikari/A+Kiss+for+the+Whole+World)
  Takes Enter Shikari's standard Screamo style (see: One True Color) but less screaming and more punk/punk rock elements, super fun to listen to
  Favorites songs: Leap into the Lightning, Bloodshot, Giant Pacific Octopus

- INERTIA - grandson [link](https://www.last.fm/music/grandson/Inertia)
  Combining rap, punk lyrics (very political/sociocritical), and metal was an awesome idea. I hope to see more stuff like this from grandson in the future
  Favorite Songs: BRAINROT, AUTONOMOUS DELIVERY ROBOT
  Favorite Breakdown: YOU MADE ME THIS WAY

- Meteora - Linkin Park [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Linkin+Park/Meteora)

**Rap**:
- Operation: Doomsday - MF Doom [link](https://www.last.fm/music/MF+DOOM/Operation:+Doomsday)
  So I'm just getting into rap music, but this album is pretty neat.

- Adventure - Madeon [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Adventure/Madeon)
  Not really an all-in-one-sitting kinda album, but it has some nice parts. Feels like Porter's music but with more of a classic EDM inspiration.
  Favorites: Beings, Pixel Empire, OK

- ten days - Fred Again.. [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Fred+again../ten+days)
  Fred's music feels very "human" in a way that's hard to describe. Super chill, no skips

- Renaissance - Polyphia [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Polyphia/Renaissance)
  I kind of hate the whole "bragging that im too good at guitar" style of Tim Henson, but this album seems to balance the guitar riffs with actually good musical elements in a way that the other albums don't do.
  Favorite Song: Euphoria

**various background music**:
- Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven - Godspeed You! Black Emperor [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Godspeed+You!+Black+Emperor/Lift+Your+Skinny+Fists+Like+Antennas+to+Heaven)

- Selected Ambient Works 2 - Aphex Twin [link](https://www.last.fm/music/Aphex+Twin/Selected+Ambient+Works+2)
  I'm not super big into Aphex Twin, but this album just hits different when your driving alone, late at night

**miscellaneous**:
- A Moment of Stillness - God is an Astronaut [link](https://www.last.fm/music/God+Is+an+Astronaut/A+Moment+Of+Stillness+\(2011+Remastered+Edition\))
  Super nice post-rock. Good for background music at board game night

  a mix of r&b and lofi that he calls "dream pop." kind of nostalgic, and super chill
