"Weird" to be interpreted at the reader's discretion.

Looking for some cool new tunes.

I'll get the ball rolling with one of mine: Scaretale by Nightwish. That song is all over the place... it's like haunted fantasy carnival jingle metal. Love it.

    The one most people would probably find the weirdest is Pepper Coyote - no cock like horse cock

    Country Death Song by the Violent Femmes. It's banjos and a proper upbeat hoe-down vibe alongside lyrics talking about crushing poverty and killing one of your children so you can afford to feed the others and ends with the narrator hanging themselves. It's bleak as fuck and very not my normal jam, but somehow it grew on me and I love it.

    Bonus: Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult. Just a song about Godzilla smashing up Tokyo set to some pretty fun music.

    Random smattering of Eurovision picks, Who The Hell is Edgar by Teya and Salena (Austria) is a hilarious banger and commentary on Spotify profits to artists. Also, No Rules by Windows95man was pure brilliance.

    Power metal classics and a few covers of 80s hits.

    TV theme songs, but the full full 3-4 minute song.

    Weird Al's Hamilton Polka is top tier.

    Plus some Disco era A and B sides, West African old school "palm wine music," songs from a few musicals including the Buffy the Vampire Slayer musical episode.

    You know, just, like, normal stuff.

    Dog Fashion Disco. I call it Circus-core. It's too dark and offensive to be taken seriously by most people, but it's got some good music behind it. And I once got to see them in a bar with a $10 cover. Fantastic show!

    Ahh, my christmas playlist

    Rudolph the Coked Out Reindeer - Kamikazi

    Pretty much any Christmas song from them tbh. Best version of Jingle Bells, Batman Smells.

  • Melancholic Crossroads I like loads of her stuff. Current favourite is WW3 but she does slower stuff

    I’m the Supervisor - Infected Mushroom

    I honestly recommend everything from them if you’re looking for unique sound. The He.art album by Astrix also has some weird.

    Enigma also has some great soundscapes. My personal favorite album is MCMX A.D.
