Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I really like The Clash. Their politics are decent, but their music is amazing.

Do folks have any recommendations for who else to listen to? I'm open to most genres, and found Curtis Mayfield to be probably my second favorite artist. Thanks!

Thanks, the cover art has my attention already!

I like Death Grips, it's like a portal into American psychosis for me (not from USA). Might be stupid, willing to accept being called stupid for saying this but I do feel like they were trailblazers for the new punk sound. SOAD always tickles the right spot for me, soundgarden is cute too.

rubber bands are pretty good, useful for so much stuff.

Bambu. Top tracks: Chairman Mao, Upset the Setup, Intifada, Welcome to the Party, Steal for a Meal. All of his tracks hit hard but those are my favorite ones.

Sure thing! They're my most listened band recently - posthardcore and kind of experimental. Lots of really dense philosophizing and referential lyrics.
