When I first heard this on twitch I thought it was some kind of goth or maybe emo – the streamer plays a lot of “dark” music in general. I was kind of suprised to read that the band is considered metal, though re-listening to the last part of the song, especially the drums, I can kind of hear it. Either way, the song is pretty awesome.
I’m a bit more partial to the balrog boogie or voodoo mon amour. But yes it’s fun stuff and pairs well with twin temple or a few tracks by the brains, some Satan’s Pilgrims, chase with a little Tito and tarantula and you’ve got the start of a good eclectic set
Awesome, thanks for the recommendations.
Twin Temple can be a lot of fun lol. I had my conservative Lutheran mother in the car with me a while back and YouTube music was playing random things that I liked. Twin Temple came up and she said she really liked it. They’ve nailed that 1950s doo-wop sound so hard but unless you really pay attention to the lyrics most people would just bounce a long merrily LOL
Diablo Swing Orchestra is seriously good. The HTML5 port of Winamp defaults to them for a reason.
TIL there’s a HTML5 port of Winamp! Thanks for that!
