This is a killer French instrumental hip-hop album that has stuck with me super hard over the last decade.

Bought the 3 albums, thanks for the link.
Ohhh sounds interesting!
Thanks!
An epic power metal band, surpassed only by Rhapsody (of Fire) themselves. Unfortunately, they have left the western shores. 😓
From distant memory a track was used in an obscure fixed gear cycling documentary I caught & I looked them up from that. Not my usual bag at all but I loved the electronic sounds mixed with guitars. They're certainly talented, singer has a velvet smooth voice & they probably should have gained a far wider audience
Are they a football team?
The Art of Forgetting by Caroline Rose
House Plants by IVERSEN
OK by Mr Bruce.
The whole thing is a very emotional journey. It starts off with anti-capitalist hyperpop and ends with an ode to both his deceased twin and his deceased band mate, and more. The whole thing has so much raw emotion and heart. Well worth a listen.
Too Much Not Enough by Dadi Freyr
Basically a europop album of love songs to his wife and kids. With some very fun very relatable songs about FOMO and imposter syndrome and such mixed in.
Many come to mind, but it really depends on what kind of music you like: Voyager by Blueshift
Mesma by Deadlights
The Uncanny Valley by Deadlights
Valley of Kings by The Wise Man's Fear
Connecticut Casual by Apathy
I could go on, but my personal views of what should be popular may not line up with yours or others'.
Mdou Moctar - Afrique Victime
Truly otherworldly electric guitar. He’s a generational talent.
Holding hands with jamie by gilla band. Really all their stuff and most post-punk. DITZ is pretty great too.
This is one of my favourites, and criminally underrated. Mid-tempo ambient electronic beats.

One of my favourite newer bands, the Bobby Lees! This album, Bellevue, is my favourite by far.
Worth a listen if you like punk-ish stuff
Freighter - The Den
Definitely not gonna tickle everyone's pickle. Heard it discribed as if the offspring swallowed a couple of math rock/metal bands. Not completely incorrect.
The Third World and The Martyr by Immortal Technique. Really all of his stuff.
Destiny Potato - Lun
Fantastic album, released with next to no market8ng or fanfare.
