So, I'm almost exclusively listening to deathmetal, deathcore and other kinds of extreme metal, but once upon a time I stumbled upon this song and since then Aesop Rock has found himself a permanent spot in my music library.

I haven't found many other rap artists that I like but when it comes to Aesop there are few songs I dislike.

Check out Delton 3030. If you feel wild one day.

Del the Funky Homosapian and automater are generally great.

Awesome, thanks for the suggestion! I'm always down to try new music

Busdriver also has really good sarcastic rap (like an LA version of Aesop Rock).

[–] Magusbear@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Busdriver is actually one of the few other rap artists I listen too. I LOVE Perfect Hair. Other than that I only have Rob Sonic and Hail Mary Marron on my playlist.

I feel the same. I listen to mostly folk and like synth pop music, but I love basically everything from Aesop

If it’s just the music you like, check out Blockhead he’s the person behind all the music for Aesop Rock.

Will do! Thanks!

Glad you liked Aesop.

I came across his music while playing the game Freedom Finger. He's got some great songs in it.

Hopefully I can get some death metal suggestions out of you. I have a few online friends who are really into the genre.

[–] Magusbear@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nice, haven't heard that one yet!

The genre is so huge, if you could tell me one band that your friends are into it would make suggesting stuff a bit easier haha.

Got a few songs out of them:

"Atonement" by Conquer Divide
"Murder Mitten" by I See Stars
"Nocturnal Future" by The Word Alive
"Circles" by Dark Divine

Pig Destroyer, Headcage and Book Burner albums. Great videos for "The Diplomat" and "Army of Cops"

Then check out any Misery Index albums.

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Gonna pass on these suggestions. Thanks!

Misery Index/Napalm Death/Pig Destroyer fan of ugly music here and this song did the same thing for me. Plus the Biz Markee cross with Aseop is dope.

I suggest Damu the Fudge Monk. Hits the same way to me, but also his jazz hip hop with Archie Shep. It's on band camp or what's left of it.

[–] Magusbear@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Awesome in that case I will definitely check them out. Great taste as well, I usually veer more towards deathcore but I love me some Pig Destroyer and Misery Index. I'm also always open for deathmetal suggestions

Before they destroy band camp go through my collection...lots of various metal. https://bandcamp.com/team_evil
