Wu-Tang is for the ~~children~~ lemmings.
They might not be anything to fuck with either.
The Roots (first four albums especially)
Godspeed You! Black Emperor / A Sliver Mt. Zion
Portishead, Massive Attack
Public Enemy
Fuckin magnets
To be fair, I have an Engineering degree and still don't know how magnets work.

Opeth, although I don’t love their more recent drift away from death metal (dear god it’s been a decade now). I’ve really loved Cattle Decapitation’s newer stuff, too.
Oh and I second the guy declaring that Wu Tang is for the Children
I like you. You have the same taste as me.
Cattle has been on a streak the last decade or so. 4 or 5 albums that are all incredible.

Ween
I was never as into Ween as some of my friends were, but The Mollusk is a masterpiece IMO.
It's kinda like Mr Bungle - California. If you can casually make an album of pop music that good, you have my eternal respect, even if I never fully get into the less approachable work.

Dumbfounded dipshit, checking in!
Tool
King Gizzard and the Wizard Lizard. Their live shows kick ass and they've got such amazing chemistry together. Love listening to them jam.
They Might Be Giants
Saw them recently in Glasgow. Absolutely fantastic.

Dream Theater
Saw them last week. Omg, I wish it never ended.
It's hard to pick one between ELO, Jamiroquai, the Bee Gees and Linkin Park.

The Presidents Of The United States Of America.
Silly lyrics about bugs and serious rock. What's not to like?

King Crimson is the official answer.
But I put Tool, Meshuggah, Between the Buried and Me, and maybe Karnivool in second place.

Coheed and Cambria
If I had to pick one, I'd have to pick The Clash.
So many favourite bands. Soilwork, Dream Theatre, Decapitated, Fear Factory.
Alestorm! It has everything, drunk pirates, silly pirates, horny pirates, bloodlusting pirates and pizza, for reasons I guess.

Daft Punk
Vulfpeck

E: Anthony Green has such an emotive voice, especially on Juturna and my personal favorite album On Letting Go.
Favorite bands by studio albums? Depends on mood:
-
The Magnetic Fields / Stephin Merritt's other projects
-
Lifter Puller / Craig Finn's other projects
-
Nineteen Forty-Five / 3 Finger Cowboy / the members' other projects
-
100 gecs

Favorite new artist?
- Amélie Farren
Exodus.
NOFX
Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Silver Mt Zion
Dark tranquility 🤘
Of course it's kind of a situational thing, favorite band can be different depending in when it's asked but I think Love has been the one band I never take a break from listening to and never get tired of.
Talking Heads is a very close second, and then many many more close third.
I really want to start sharing music more, but I have to find good ways to share the playlists I make.
Between the Buried and Me is one of my favorites, as is Parkway Drive recently. Other top artists are ones like gloryhammer, Amararanthe, and Alestorm. Outside of metal, bands like Supercommuter/Optimus Rhyme, MC Frontalot, mc chris, and Captain Dan tend to be my most played
One of my favorite random artists I've found recently is Anthony Vincent who makes songs covers in the style of other artists, and I just can't get enough of Mr Brightside by A7X
The Tragically Hip.
It's a four-way tie between David Byrne/Talking Heads, Oingo Boingo, Spin Doctors and Yello.
Edit: five way tie - add in Earth, Wind and Fire (pre 1981)
