It's night unless you live in Australia or whatever so that means it's time for the slowest and most depressing genre around: slowcore
>discuss slowcore
>recommend other people slowcore
>post links to slowcore
>post your markfu/mimifu
>shill your bandcamp slowcore-revival band
>have fun
Starting question: which lesser known slowcore band is your fav?

>re-listening to songs for a blue a guitar
Trailways and Revelation Big Sur are top-tier Koz. Don't understand why some of these songs didn't make the radio or get him more fame

if make like paper was a lot shorter it would have been a fuckin hit

RIP the middle east

The Black Heart Procession deserves more recognition, 1 and 3 are both amazing albums, haven't heard 2 yet though.
>>
>>64196078
Some of my favorite lesser knowns:

Timonium
Space rock and post rock influenced, beautiful, depressive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8mvSiCofLk

Thalia Zedek
Folk rock, ragged, she sounds strangely like Dylan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlqNqeb3mfM

Red Dunes
Lo fi, space rock, Duster with more dinosaur references
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeqpELvSsK8

Argentine
Post rockish
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnJbQ_pAl9A

Jessica Bailiff
Dream pop/shoegaze heavy, ambience

>lesser known slowcore
I'm really digging the last Rivulets album

>>64196297
2 is also amazing

Duster's live On the Air album is a new favorite of mine. It has a nice chilled-out slowness to it with laid-back and quiet playing, and doesn't suffer from jarring production changes like their albums do.

That red dunes track is great. It reminds me a lot of early neutral milk hotel cassettes.

lowercase was really good, it had that depressed feel with some of the dreamy soundscapes, I really liked it.
>>
>thought I didn't like slowcore
>apparently according to >>64196078 and>>64196526, Lisa Germano and Cat Power are slow core

Should I listen to a1, /mu/?

That chart is pretty much copy pasted from RYM's Slowcore chart. Honestly besides the big Slowcore albums there's not much that's too great, though I do like Bluetile Lounge so thanks for that.

>>64196875
What do you like most?
>dream pop, soundscapes, copious reverb
A1

A6

>>64197564
was marky mark nice?
>>
>>64197604
Yea, very quiet though and he said he is happy to see a younger girl at his concerts, other than then the old red house painters males fans and the young pitchfork hipsters with beards. Basically the same joke that he always uses

Mark pls come to Phoenix

>>64197018
Damn nigga that ohia song was fresh as heck, what albums do you recommend I listen to first?
>>
>>64197715
Def "Didn't it Rain" and "The Lioness" which title track i posted. Def his most Slowcorish and best introduction. His magnum Opus is "Electric Magnolia Co." which is much more Alt-Country and not so much slowcore but still good as fuck
>>
i like american music club. none of their albums are particularly mind-blowing, but they have a pretty consistent catalog (california and everclear being the two most notable releases imo)
>>
Why is Bridge so underrated? It's such a good album and Uncle Joe is probably my fav song of theirs
>>
>>64198294
I dunno, i love the Version of New Jersey, Evil is fantastic and Blindfold brings the feels hard
>>
>>64198294
this

it really has no bad songs on it
>>
I want some dense shoegazey slowcore; I know Planning For Burial (one of my favorites) and Ambersmoke, but I haven't found anyone else with a similar style
>>
