Original Post for the curious

I have been adding pretty much everything anyone has suggested. Though I did cap the song count per band to like 4. We are already at 115 songs 0_0

I will keep updating for the near future as a few more comments keep rolling in.

Also thanks to everyone who contributed! A lot of these I had heard of but there are also a ton that are completely new to me and I've already found a bunch of new songs I'm really enjoying.

Ill be upfront and just say this post is largely inspired by my desire to get a band I've been recently a bit obsessed with some more attention but I also haven't seen one of these in a while and it's a great way to find new music I might not otherwise come across. Hopefully this is ok to post.

So for me It's been the Oxymorrons ("2 R's not one"). I saw these guys open for sleep theory like a year ago and the live show was AMAZING. Energy was off the charts. It's super rare for me to see an opener and immediately become a fan.

They are mostly a mix of punk / metal / hip hop but like LP they don't stick to a single lane and have some interesting variety as well.

Couple of my favorites songs:

And something a bit lighter that I also love

I loved the live show enough I'm about to see them for the 4th time next month after just discovering them last year.

PS when I see them next month they are opening for Holy Wars who I also hadnt heard of but am really liking so far. Kind of reminds me of Garbage but heavier. Really looking forward to the show. (new album)

EDIT: going to compile a YouTube music playlist of all your recommendations if anyone else is interested.
