I guess I can be proud of not getting into Spotify at the first place. Instead of discovering new music, I discover older ones which I find more reliable since new music industry mostly suck. Oh, also Bandcamp is fine for discovering indie.
That’s my nostalgia talking but what I hear in public is bad, I mean in malls, stores, shops etc. maybe they have a bad taste though. By the way I said the industry sucks not the music. Because of the industry, they’re much shorter now (thanks to Spotify I guess), I hardly find a 45 minutes album with whole great tracks.
Well I dunno your tastes, but some newer music that isn’t shit (I’m an album listener myself, so I judge by the whole album):
Black MIDI - Hellfire
Adult Jazz - Gist Is
Billy Woods - all three of his newest (one is under “Armand Hammer”, called “we buy diabetic test strips”, the other is “maps,” probably the most widely accessible, and the newest is Golliwog)
Shellac - To All Trains
Fiona Apple - Fetch the Boltcutters
KNOWER - KNOWER Forever
Those few albums span some genres and should cover a lot of tastes. I can add some more if you’re interested, those were just off the top of my head
It seems we have quite different tastes but appreciated the effort. I listened the half of the first song for first 3, Shellac’s music is really good (listened 3 songs) but not fond of the soloist or the lyrics. I listen Fiona Apple time to time but I always find her covers much better than her own songs, so there is that. KNOWER seems fun, I don’t prefer to listen swearing in songs, but they are fun. Actually I’d like to hear more, especially if you know something similar to what I like in your repertoire. <3
Not gonna share full albums here but gotta share what I like, I’ll try to be broad as possible. All of them I like to listen as a whole album.
If you’re just looking at the popular stuff it’s going to be shit. My library is filled with artists with just couple thousands of listens per month and it’s the shit (to me).
Nowadays everyone can make music and it’ll mean more stuff to filter through but there’ll be more gems to discover.

There is so much music today. To say new music sucks is wild
