You never really realize how long a song is until you play it for someone else (does not like this)

can u recommend some bands? i think i like ur music taste and i am terrible at finding music
ty :)
of COURSE I can <3 you’ve probably heard of some of these, but maybe there’ll be some you haven’t! I don’t know what you already like, so… here we go :)
Hozier. Yeah this was always going to be first on the list I’m currently listening to basically nothing else! He’s an Irish folk/soul/blues/etc idk musician who uses a lot of religious and mythological themes in his lyrics and has a lot of songs that include social justice commentary.
The Amazing Devil is a folk rock band with an incredibly unique sound. Their songs are incredibly emotional and have an awesome fantasy vibe going on—plus there’s two singers, and they often sing independently from each other, which is something you don’t see often!
Good Morning Bedlam is a bluegrass band that I’ve gotten into recently! They’re sort of like… a mix of the amazing devil and the crane wives?
The Crane Wives, while we’re at it, and
The Oh Hellos. they’re fairly similar and I don’t have a ton to say about their stylistic differences, but they’re all definitely worth checking out!
Florence & The Machine. Most people have heard of them but I always like to recommend them anyway
Alec Benjamin, if you’re into softer indie music! He has a lot of different styles of lyrics, but his voice is consistent, so he’s great to listen to if you’re looking for that sort of variety.
Chxrlotte doesn’t have a lot of music out, but I’m a big fan of the music she has released, including the ones about Good Omens! The others are more angsty which I love too.
The Family Crest is an orchestral indie pop rock band, which blows my mind. I can’t believe orchestra isn’t a more utilized tool in popular lyrical music, because they do it so well.
Good Kid is actually my brother’s favorite band, and I love them too. They’re also indie rock, but they have a very distinctive style and are easy to get into! Plus they haven’t released a shit ton of songs like some other artists, so it isn’t overwhelming to explore their discography.
Jonatha Brooke is an artist I only know about because my mom liked her music a lot in the 90s, but she’s got a super nice voice and has some awesomely relatable lyrics. I especially recommend her album Ten Cent Wings!
Midlake is a super melodic folk rock band. I’m obsessed with their album The Courage of Others, which has a melancholy vibe that’s super easy to get lost in.
Palaye Royale is harder rock than anyone else on the list so far, but they’ve got an awesome style. Unique voice and definitely darker themes in their lyrics.
Tears for Fears is a pop rock band that I love because my dad does. (My parents are musicians—I trust their music taste).
Toad the Wet Sprocket got their name from Monty Python, but PLEASE go listen to the Architect of the Ruin EP. You will not regret it. Also the song Something’s Always Wrong is like… entrenched in my very being.
Elbow is a band that I never see in fandom circles, but they’re definitely not obscure. Check out their album Little Fictions! They’re kind of like Midlake.
Will Wood ranges from chaotic and fun (The Normal Album) to absolutely soul-crushing (in case I make it)! Sometimes even both at the same time!
(I would’ve also put Paramore, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and other rock/pop punk bands I like on there, but I assumed you already know them.) (If you were looking for harder rock or metal, let me know, because this list is not that.)
If you want more genre-specific recs or even album/song recs, don’t hesitate to ask!! Music is the fuel of my soul.

I don’t know if anyone has said it before but:
The song Battle Cry from The Family Crest just really reminds me of Q!Philza.
Am I the only one? I think the lyrics fit him very well in regards to his family n stuff:)
And in general I just love this song:3

I love The Family Crest, so here's some of my favorite quotes from their songs:
🌲 "Watch the stars at night, how they shake against the night like firelight" [Battle Cry]
🌙 "Rage against the waking dawn, take the seconds of this life and pull them through your palms" [Battle Cry]
🦴 "Take your time, pretty baby, and brace yourself, cause the weight of the world is a much heavier thing, love, than you thought" [The Mighty Echo]
🌿 "Oh the sound you feel it come, like a beast, like a beast that’s coming up out of your chest again" [The Mighty Echo]
🕸️ "Throw fear, sadness, and love ,dear, into a void that will swallow up the sun, the dark, the silence" [The Mighty Echo]
🪵 "There’s a place where a garden grows where your heartbeat shakes the snow" [The Garden]

okay were none of you going to tell me about The Family Crest.
I'm looking at you, TDH fans, Razia's Shadow Fans, Hadestown fans that won't shut up about Epic the Musical now -- were NONE OF YOU going to tell me about The Family Crest? Beneath the Brine??? I have to make the treacherous journey back to 2014 music a decade later all on my own?
