Today/the last week, I have been mostly listening to Instant Rewards by Tides from Nebula, along side their previous album From Voodoo to Zen.

Ne Obliviscaris - Portal of I. A progressive extreme metal. If you want to give it a shot, listen And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope, to see if it is for you.
Honorific mention to Nirvana - All of us. This is not Kurt Kobain's Nirvana, but another band called that way back from 1967. Amazing soft psychedelic rock. The band's history is quite interesting as well, including a lawsuit against Kurt Kobain's Nirvana, and then also trying to cash out of KB's Nirvana popularity by launching a new album after several years of breaking up, in order to profit from confused customers. Then, last year they launched a new album, after 50+ years of their original break up (which I really enjoy as well).
I've been listening to Wolfie's Just Fine a lot recently

Cursive - Devourer (sic?)
My album game is super weak at the moment because I'm heavily into experimental.
if Let's Paint Tv had an album it would probably be that.
or OK Housecat
Why Would I Watch by Hot Mulligan.
Periphery III
The Tragically Hip - Live Between Us
Young Ejecta - Ride Lonesome has been my favorite for this month.
High mare - dead pirates
I've been beating Dance Gavin Dance's Jackpot Juicer to death recently, every time I listen to it my favorite song on it changes. Swallowed by Eternity goes HARD.
Sprints - Letter to Self
Upbeat: Kraftwerk - tour de france
Downtempo - a.s.o. - a.s.o.
Big Wave by Tatsuro Yamashita
Destiny Potato - Lun
I don't know if I could ever pick a favorite album, it just depends on the day, but if there is one that I come back to most often it's Incubus's S.C.I.E.N.C.E. It's indulgent in a fun, unserious, sort of manic kind of way. They play like kid's in a musical candy shop, and when I listen to them the feeling is mutual. Honorable mention to Afungus Amongus.
Who's Who Ulterior Motives baby!
The Loop by Volkor x (available on Bandcamp)
Also on YouTube: Volkor X - The Loop [FULL ALBUM] (2023)
$uicideboy$ - G.R.E.Y.G.O.D.S.
Hand of Juno just released their first album, Psychotic Banana, and I've been binging it for a solid two weeks. Good mix of heavy and melodic, and good variation between songs. Got its hooks in me.
I will say, some songs are different enough that they almost sound like different artists, so if you check them out it's worth trying a few tracks. "Polline" and "Destroy the Line" are my favorite heavy songs. "The One", "We've Built the Line", and "Not a Game" are my favorites on the melodic side.
The same as 40 years ago
Free Throw - Those Days Are Gone.
It's just a solid album top to bottom and I've been vibing with it for awhile, now.
A Boat On The Sea by Moron Police. Can't wait for their next album!
Mercury by Imagine Dragons
I'm too mercurial and indecisive to ever have a definitive favourite anything. So here's three that do well on different metrics:
PJ Harvey - Let England Shake
It's one of the strongest first halves of an album ever in my opinion.
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
Fond memories, and if you've nothing to do for an hour headphones, the two of you and a comfy chair are still a great way to pass it.
Talking Heads - Fear of Music Probably the album I've listened to most. Lot of big tunes here.
