I like that you have to go to weird Russian **** to find a woman who does horrorcore.

Nah, there's plenty in America. She's much better mostly because I don't know what she's saying so I can pretend the lyrics aren't terrible.

Norg - I can groove to the first one, but is it going anywhere? Whatever, I kinda like it. The lyrics of song 2 could be a post in the Mindful Science thread. It reminds me a little of Stevie Wonder, but in a way that I can't really connect to. I like the weird keyboard sounds. The third song has harmonies! I can't resist anything that reminds me of the Beach Boys, awesome <3 The fourth song again reminds me of Stevie Wonder at first. Then the beat kicks in, that surprised me, I really like the weird chord progression and the even more weird combination of instruments/sounds.

Nea - The first song doesn't have the pathos of Morrisey and the guitar isn't as feathery as that of Johnny Marr or the Wedding Present, but it's pretty cool, nice atmospheric doom post punk. I know and like the Cleaners From Venus, but hadn't heard this one. It's one of my favourites of theirs so far. It swings and it's just really neat, love it

Lucem - The first song doesn't reach Kathleen Hanna levels of bongo, I guess it's still a bit too metal, but it's kinda wicked. I can't really explain why this kind of screaming doesn't give me as much of a kick. The love the beat of the second song. The bit around 3:30 was ****ing awesome. I feel the same about the singing as with the previous song. Russian rapping sounds really cool, but musically the third one sounds a bit generic to me

Not a girl just a random rec cause I'm sauced and love this ****.

The yelling just didn't have the same energy as the punk vocals you like.

Bat - I don't like the singing but the groovy riff is cool
Frown - That's menacing as ****. The sharp metallic sound makes it unpleasant to listen to, but it's cool to hear that the screaming girl sound can be taken to a limit like this

Have you heard Lingua Ignota? She's like if Diamanda Galas was a good songwriter.

Frown - I recognise the album cover but not this song. It mildly clicked at first and I admire it more as it escalates. This screaming is again very different: it's emotionally much darker, unsettling. Then the choir-like singing comes in and it's beautiful (and still very unsettling). Scary but very powerful

SoundgardenRocks - This is groovy in a really pleasant way, and it manages to hold my attention even though it's repetitive in structure, nice
