See this post on recs on how to post!

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

One of my favorite bands of all time. I like Expo '86 better but this is still an excellent album. The lead singer's side project is good too the band is called Sunset Rubdown.

I had no idea. I love sunset and wolf parade.

Haha, yeah. Same guy. I lost my shit when I disxovered them because it was like finding more Wolf Parade (somewhat, they do have a different, more experimental and sweeping opera-ish sound). Dragonslayer is hands down one of my favorite albums of all time.
