God Hates a Coward - Tomahawk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aA5NxTujqg)
I don't quite remember when I found this, but it was one of those rare occasions where you decide that a song is now one of your lifetime favorites, even before its done playing. It has the perfect blend of live rawness (not that the band is ever short of that in-studio), while still being executed basically perfectly. It also helps that Mike Patton is one of the most encompassing musicians/performers ever. The performance speaks for itself though.
Live in Paris (1979) - The Cure (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVlsfBU51So)
What can I say about The Cure that hasn't already been said. I prefer their edgier, darker stuff (I can admit my own angst), and they have a version of A Forest on here that is just so well into that pocket. There used to be a version with video as well, but it kept getting taken down, hopefully the audio-only version doesn't. This and a blunt...
I Just Want a House - Iguana Death Cult (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG15XJjLabM)
In short, makes me want to run.

Tippy top of the list is easily Us and Them by Pink Floyd. Obviously anything off of dark side of the moon is an immediate classic. Such a beautiful album.
A newer band I recently found is “The growlers.” they have some awesome alt rock sounding, good vibes songs. Some of them feel a little “surfy” if that’s your vibe. Favorite song by them rn is easily “dope on a rope.”
A little different of a rec than the first two is another song I hold close to me is “Going in circles” by Friends of Distinction. More of an R&B/Soul group, they have an incredibly warm feeling to this song.
If you want something for your softer side, anything by a girl in red is always the vibe.

This movie is boring as fuck but can’t stop thinking about it since I saw it a few weeks ago

I used to think that I purely hated most of the new stuff that comes out because it’s all bad, but apparently that is only half true.. I found out when I got a tv that I had just been consuming movies and shows on my phone in my bed like that one wojak meme, which sucks and is sad. Watching on an actual tv has made the experience way better
