For example, I first heard Suburban Legends - Polyester, so I went to check Suburban Legends and they were just a regular ska band.

What's your "that song was great, I wish the band did more of that" song and band?

Modern English - I Melt With You is a catchy new wave pop tune. The rest of their work is much, much darker

Mesh and Lace

My Morning Jacket - In it's Infancy (The Waterfall)

I found this song and got stoked I might have a new band to dig into. Dammit if the rest of their music isn't boring as shit. I found them so dull, I actually had to come back to this song and make sure I didn't mistake it for another band.

Same thing happened with Jesus & the Brides of Dracula - Turning Teeth

The song has a killer vibe, and then when I found out it was The Silversun Pickups I was actually bummed to know they could make such interesting music, but don't.

To be fair, Disasterpiece wrote the song, but Silversun did something with it much cooler than anything else they've written.

The Beat - Mirror in a bathroom

"Weatherman" by Sub7even.

But while I totally loved that song, turned out I loved the rest of their stuff, which is totally different just as much.

So inside me there are two wolves:

One wishing they had done more stuff like "Weatherman".

The other one wishing they had made more stuff as on the rest of the album it was on.

Maybe Tomorrow by Stereophonics. That song causes a lot of frission when I hear it. Now I admit I haven’t heard their entire discography yet, but any other song of theirs I’ve listened to hasn’t given me the same effect.

Scissor Sisters - I Can't Decide

I understand they were popular for other songs in the UK, but I was so disappointed.

Oh Lord - In This Moment

The rest of their music sounds like the bdsm of music, and I'm just not into it.

What an absolute banger! Unfortunately, most of their music is mediocre at best.

Edit: I teach this song on drums on a regular basis, that's how much it slaps you in the face.

Kris Delmhorst — "Short Work"

[–] seathru@quokk.au 2 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Puscifier - Conditions of My Parole fucking slaps. But the rest of their stuff is nothing like that.

[–] arctanthrope@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

I have one by them too but it's Personal Prometheus

The Movement - Remember

This song hit at the right time in my life and I had it practically on repeat for over a year. Rest of their stuff just didn't grab me like say practically every Stick Figure song did.

Måneskin - I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE is a total banger, but I never quite liked the rest of the album (It's all in Italian??)
