@TheBrandedSwordsman Doolittle was the first album I bought on CD myself. Probably says a lot about the influences I had from my uncles and brother that I was buying an alt-rock album from 1989 in about 2010 😂
@nessisonett 😂 Did you enjoy the CD? I reckon it was indeed their influence on you, reminds me I'll have to have another listen to Danananakroyd again soon 😉

@TheBrandedSwordsman Yeah, it’s a classic for a reason. I was well into that sorta stuff on my crap iPod Shuffle, Pixies, Smashing Pumpkins, Violent Femmes, Sonic Youth, early REM etc.

@TheBrandedSwordsman I had a listen and it’s not too bad. Not my usual fare, but it’s nice music to have in the background or play softly while taking a nap. 😀

@Jimmer-jammer That album (vinyl edition) just arrived today, listening to it now, really enjoying it, great stuff, modern art eh? What have you been listening to recently?

I am at a total loss musically. I just jumped between hardcore punk, '00s indie-pop, and Nancy Sinatra in the space of an hour. Can't find what phase I'm in here.
Someone chuck some kind of mad recommendation at me. Madder the better. Like totally mad. Or just a bit mad. Anything as long as it's not currently something that's in the charts.
@johncalmc If you scroll up a bit or Google it you'll find Mark Vernon's Sounds of Domestic Plumbing and Sanitation. Not exactly "music" but it's art right? And pretty mad concept-wise.

@Jimmer-jammer Fear Inoculum is a great album, regardless of whether you listen to their previous releases in preparation first, you should definitely listen to it, and let me know what you think!

Badd Timing- The Swooper Swag Project (math-rap, if such a thing exists)
El Michels Affair- Yeti Season (I read a review where it aptly described the album as 'Turkish inspired Bollywood funk'; it's not actually mad at all but it is utterly brilliant)
Hannah Peel- Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia (again, not actually too mad but definitely something different)
anything by Fantomas (or the entirety of Mike Patton's back catalogue)
@nessisonett I liked the album. Listened to the whole thing from front to back which is pretty rare these days, honestly. It's mainly individual tracks or playlists now. Probably give the other albums a shot. Excellent recommendation.
@Mergatro1d I'm already a fan of Fantomas and Hannah Peel but I'm going to try the other two now. Just the phrase math rap offends me on some kind of deep, subconscious level but I'm going to try it anyway. And I'm obviously gonna check out the Bollywood funk first because come on.
@johncalmc haha yeah math-rap is a pretty awful term. Check out the track 'Charlie Chaplin' to see if it offends your ears as much as your sentiment. And obviously after the Bollywood funk album.
@johncalmc Brilliant, someone else who appreciates the strange, mad genius of Divine Styler. I just can’t believe that album came out on a major label in 1992. It’s as if nobody was checking up on him.
