Whoops, forgot to add a description.
Atlas at Last - s/t
>post-hardcore with heavy emo influences, heavy, melodic, really cool lyrics.
>>61828154
Fucking love that album. Some of the best artwork I've seen. Didn't really like their sludgier follow up though, sounded too much like all the other sludgy screamo bands out there. Check out Premonitions Says EP by Piles and Piles, really good emo/math rock/shoegaze crossover OP.

you got a mega link senpai
sounds like it would be right up my alley if you know what i mean
>>61828154
DC post-hardcore is rad as fuck. I wish I know of more guys like them besides Dismemberment Plan and Fugazi.
>>61828233
Thanks man, will do.
Lavis Blake - In Tandem
>post-punk infused emo, lesser of their two EPs but still seriously great, also some good lyrics on this one, especially Jazz Cigarette
Anything Thomas Dolby
>>61828285
You can get it off their bandcamp for free I'm pretty sure.
Lavis Blake - Glue
>post-punk infused emo and their magnum opus, this thing is a three track monster with some of my favorite lyrics in emo.
>>61828353
Lol should've checked that first
Anyway keeping up with the emo theme: Forever Losing Sleep - I Lost Myself Again
https://foreverlosingsleep.bandcamp.com/album/i-lost-myself-again-2
>emo with post-rock influences
sounds like PBTT's last album and Gates
>>61828440
This is fucking fantastic I can't believe someone posted this.

If you like this check out Glory Days - Sad Like You Want To Be

Terrible album cover but the album itself is dope.
nuitio - Unutella
>absolutely batshit math-rock, fucking awesome
I've found this band's EP on one of my first days on /mu/ in a thread that reads
>In 1976, during an acid induced trip to the dumpsters behind a local Burger King, three friends got together and began to improvise some of the most non influential music of their time as The Ketamine Kings were born. Having gone almost entirely unheard of (besides by the Burger King employees at the time), their first album was debuted in 1987 to no one's care or amazement.
I don't know if they would viraling or just fucking around but I grew quite fond of the EP. The album itself includes psych-ish lofi jams with a scream or two which you might or might now like

Nu-Vintage - Hi-Fi Dreams
>really warm soul/disco sampled hip-hop, super nostalgic and relaxing.

Forgot the album art.
>>61828696
I should probably put the genres and shit
>post-punk, psychedelic rock, improv jams
>Lync - These Are Not Fall Colors
Olympia at its finest
I've seen it gain more traction around /mu/ recently but I'll post it anyway.
Duster - Stratosphere
>Wonderful space rock/indie rock/slowcore hybrid, my absolute favorite slowcore album
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrHW6_aJSKc
>>61828923
Damn, forgot it again.
>>61828603
this art is spectacular. description sounds rad too, will check em
>>61828947
I wouldn't exactly consider an album that is pretty much /mu/core to be obscure.
Not obscure desu but it isn't talked about enough in here
>>61828947
>obscure
>>61831612

>>61828947
I have never heard this before somehow and I love the first two songs so far so much... so excited for the rest. Thanks Anon!
Can someone please tell me what song is being sampled here? I have been looking for it for months and trying to figure it out for weeks.
