@GraemeE Ok, here‘s some random stuff that comes to mind (it‘s 6:15 am here in Germany, I just got up):
Give the CHASER album Dreamers a listen, as well as the last two KRANG albums. Great skatepunk.
C.O.F.F.I.N. from Australia are great, as well as Amyl and the Sniffers.
Useless ID from Israel have not put out anything new recently, but try out their State is Burning album. Their singer, Yotam Ben Horin, does solo stuff, singer/songwriter style. If you dare to go there, listen to B-273, a song about his grandfather surviving the Holocaust.
DRAIN play great hardcore, the Codefendants a great crossover between punk and hip hop. The Kings of Nuthin were a band that blew me away. Miss them, their singer committed suicide over 10 years ago.Give my buddy Greg and his Rock‘n‘Roll Manifesto, a podcast on Real Punk Radio a listen - a cool variety of sometimes obscure stuff.

@GraemeE If you have access to* and not watched yet, go for The Beatles - Get Back. I'm half way through and enjoying it a lot. Great inside into the individual personalities, the process how they developed their music (at least at this stage) and lots of crazy ideas which ended in the Rooftop Concert. When I'm done with it, I'll proceed with Scorsese's Living in the Material World. But perhaps you've seen both already. Anyway, get better soon, man, and enjoy the opioids.
- for me it was worth a temporary Disney+ membership

This is the Podcast I am hearing on my way to work at the moment.
Often stopped the car and searched for mentioned artists on Spotify.
Come back to you later.

I don't know another about Jazz to properly articulate why I love this, but since I had a track introduced to me through a curated playlist, I've revisited this live album so many times. It's rare the purely instrumental music gives me frission, but so many moments here move me for reasons I'll never fully understand.
Favourite Hip Hip album in recent years, if not of all time. Only 21 minutes long, but so impactful and coherent.
Perfectly walks the line between reveling in the braggadocio/deviancy of his older music, and celebrating his successes/attempts to live a better life.
Won't even attempt to describe this one, I guess its roots are in punk/musical theatre/glam rock, but they draw from so many influences it's insane...
Such a fun listen.

@mclaincausey said in Music:
GUM & Ambrose Kenny Smith
Of KGLW fame? Didn't know he had a side project!
-
@T4920 the very same and yes, with Tame Impala’s drummer who does a bunch of cool stuff. Ambrose also has a project called Murlocs and their latest Calm Ya Farm is a heater, kind of Raconteurs-esque southern tinged rock and roll.

@GraemeE hope the recovery is going well! Just some things off the top of my head that might go well with a bit of brain fog…
Little Feat-Waiting for Columbus
Christ Whitley-Living with the Law
Big Thief-Little Things/Sparrow or “Dragon” album
Buck Meek-Haunted Mountain
Dr John-Locked Down (produced by Dan Auerbach)
Freedy Johnston -Blue Days, Black Nights
Waxahatchee-St CloudAll kind of in the same vein. Keep us posted on the recovery.

@GraemeE I got a notification from this thread because our usernames are a letter apart.
I can't think of anything to suggest off the top of my head apart from get well soon. Also, please avoid trying to die. Apparently, our name is now extinct, so we're a dwindling breed.
