Can't immerse because German media sucks

Hey guys

So I'm trying to learn German but I'm having a hard time finding good content. Pop music sounds generic and boring (contrary to pop music in English) and when it comes to my favorite genres (Nintendo Jazz, Lowercase and life-affirming progressive corpse shredcore) there’s only a handful of bands and they mostly sing in English. Most German music is unrockable.

Most well-known books are translated into German but I prefer reading them in the original English, and I can't stand watching dubbed shows.

I'm also interested in Central Asian archaeology but so far no luck.

Could anyone recommend content that fits my highly specific tastes? I’ll make sure to ignore your recommendations and keep consuming content in a language where I dislike 99% of all available content but had an entire lifetime to filter out the 1% that I enjoy.
