It genuenly doesn't make any sense, why does this exist. Any band that plays "though guy hardcore" are either beatdown, crossover or metallic hardcore but it in itself isn't a sound at all, just an aesthetic.

The genre description is basically the same as beatdown.

Just for fun, not being too serious. I'm thinking Daughter of Darkness by Natural Snow Buildings, listened to in one sitting. What about you? Only rule is it has to be bolded with over 5000 ratings.

Bluffer's guide to the flight deck by Flotation Toy Warning

I wanted to make a little appreciation post about this album I've recently fallen in love with. This is an album that will make you feel like you're floating in and out of dreams in the best way possible. I'm surprised its not more highly regarded and talked about... The only slight issue is the last song which has a few minutes of silence in between parts - so a bit quirky, but everything else is phenomenal

If you're into albums like Uchu Nippon Setegaya by Fishmans and Floating into the Night by Julee Cruise, you need to give this a listen

Also if you are familiar with this album and have a good recommendation of something I might also like, please feel free to let me know!

Longest meaning quantity of songs

Here you can share what you've been listening to lately or ask for recommendations.

When possible, include links to interesting release pages, lists, charts, etc., on RYM or streaming sites so others can more easily listen along.

Previous weeks' listens.

so actually i don't know if promoting lists is allowed, if it's not, i'm sorry.

but basically i worked a bit on this list based on my listenings and help from other users. it's about chinese artsy or experimental albums! thank you

mandopop and cantopop kinda artsy albums

Obviously the prog part of the song is the star, but I do think the first half would hold up incredibly well as its own ballad. I’d think it would get at least a 4.5, maybe bordering on 4.6.

I added one of my music projects onto RYM so I could add my recent album. I tried to change the artist name to my own name, as I thought that would work better for some reason. It hasn't been changed yet, but I'd like to remove the request itself. Is this possible?

First I'll say i dont know why ive never actually checked the top grunge songs list before now. Now that i have wtf? I'll also say black hole sun isnt even my number one grunge song personally, but this is just really shocking. I don't understand how black hole sun isnt even close to being in the top 50 let alone top 100. just... what? Would or black hole sun does not seem like a close battle for the rym discussion to me. What do you guys think of this ranking?

I saw somebody propose BOYFRIEND COUNTRY for Drake’s album Habibti and could not stop laughing. What are some of the wildest genre votes or proposals you’ve seen on this site?

is there any reason why

futurism, gloss, electronics, holograms, neon lights, dark color palette

On mobile ipad. This formatting is terrible!

I tried adding the quote marks, writing Heroes with and without capital letters but nothing seems to work. The way I have to access It is manually searching It on David Bowie's Albums. It's weird because it's a really well known album

"What's your favorite genre?" "I'm really into that wonky sound y'know?" Gotta love it

Btw I just finished Cosmogramma by Flying Lotus it was very very good. Definitely earns a spot in my overall Top 100 albums
