For me, though pretty basic, it would be Harry Styles - Daylight

Though it probably is because, and I have no shame in saying this, I have a crush on Harry Styles

    I don’t have a favorite song but mostly listen to gabber or deathcore but my bestie turned my on to Kim Dracula and I let Spotify take me down this wierd rabbit hole of trapcore and hyper-punk/rock/etc. It’s wired and vibes. It’s angry mixed with pretty. And honestly I’m here for it.

    Favorite bands are Anti-Flag and La Dispute so it’s a complete left turn for me in that regard. Also my music tastes are all over the place.

      I don’t really have a favorite song either, I just mentioned a good song from my favorite band SOAD. I like Kim Dracula. I was disappointed that they only had a couple of singles when I found it, but now that you’ve reminded me they exist I found their new album. If you like nu-metal type stuff I suggest SOAD and limp bizkit. If you like political punk, in my opinion Anti-flag’s not the best, but I’d suggest the Suicide Machines, against me, propaghandi, and Distructo Disk.

        Is SOAD System of Down? I went through a small phase with their first few albums. There’s a Japanese nu-metal band called Maximum the Hormone that reminds me a lot of them.

        I’m always in the hunt for political punk so I’ll give those you mentioned a listen.

        I was only aware of KD because my friend was actually hyping their album dropping so it’s fresh lol.

        Never been a big Limp Bizkit fan but what’s funny is that Break Stuff has been sampled into a ton of the electronic music I listen to and it’s good. I was definitely a teenager during the original nu-metal era though so maybe it’s just nostalgia?

          Yea, System of a Down. I’ll check out MtH. Even though I wasn’t alive when much of it came out, I like listening to a lot of nu-metal. Some more bands I’d recommend (various political metal) are: Earth Crisis, (hed) p.e. (Lefty 9/11 truthers, some decent stuff, but some of it is just slurs. Their self-titled album is the best), soulfly, The exploited, pennywise, one day as a lion, prophets of rage, Sankara, grandson…

            Back when nu-metal was really big, I swear I was the only one that liked Coal Chamber. Throw that one in your list if you haven’t you haven’t listened heard of them.

            I’ll check out those last few since I don’t think I’ve heard of them.

      When it comes to Hard Rock/Metal I always liked Motörhead, they had a lot of sus Fascist and WW1 Imperial German imagery but they had great songs
