AnimalForce1: [Recs Closed] Doing full discog runs in 2024, need recs!

AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Drop your discog recs here! I'll add them to the list, and try to get through them all as best as I can when 2024 hits!
MarsKid 12.15.23	Get some new-school U.K. core in your rotation. Rolo Tomassi and Palm Reader discog runs. Feel like you'll enjoy both.
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Both added! And thanks for giving me some motivation to finally check Rolo Tomassi!
SlothcoreSam 12.15.23	Propagandhi Strung Out
Feather 12.15.23	I see you 5'd TWIABP most recent album and have not rated any others. That would be an interesting discog run for you. They have changed and gone through some interesting phases, especially if you include singles/splits/eps
Drifter 12.15.23	cursive
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Added all 3! TWIABP has been on my radar for a discog run, but the sheer scope of their discog has kept me away. Which is ironic, when you realize my favorite band is Rush, with 20 studio releases, but y'know
mryrtmrnfoxxxy 12.15.23	Cows
JohnnyoftheWell 12.15.23	u need Glassjaw (easy) Rolo Tomassi [2] Thursday Sikth (easy) Supercar Seiko Oomori but also don't subscribe to any of these bc doing any more than 2-3 discog runs at once is a guaranteed way to ruin your year. do a cram discovery month and then double down on the artists you enjoy most from it
porcupinetheater 12.15.23	Do The Drones, unbelievable discog front to back
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Johnny, how did I know you were gonna rec Seiko?
Feather 12.15.23	oops! Let me make this much easier on you, the scope isn't nearly as large as you think: Their 4 LPs Formlessness (original or 2016 version) Between Bodies Assorted works (Encompasses almost everything else) Assorted works is ~20 tracks but merges together all their random eps and splits (other than the other 2 listed)
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Okay, that definitely isn't as bad as the Sput page makes it look LMAO Also, definitely gonna do a cram discovery month, because 20+ discogs while juggling college and life will absolutely destroy my mental health. I know 1 through 7 I'm almost certainly committing to, but everything else is at least being considered
Feather 12.15.23	^ dude, I used to just discog run during all nighters studying. You can cram all 7 into a single finals week (half kidding)
mkmusic1995 12.15.23	Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds. Good luck my friend! :D
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Thank you for the luck, fellow Sleep Token enjoyer!
Prancer 12.15.23	I see that you have metalcore as the highest in your pie, but no dillinger ratings. so I will say the dillinger escape plan.
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	I've listened to a couple Dillinger tracks, but no full album runs just yet!
Prancer 12.15.23	you gotta do it. they only have 6 albums that are each around 40 minutes, so totally doable.
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	They're probably gonna be one of my first discog runs after the first 7. Should be a pretty easy run!
Demon of the Fall 12.15.23	Nick Cave is gonna be an epic one, well worth it though! But yeah do what Johnny said, not necessarily full discog runs (at once anyway). See how you get on as you go
Demon of the Fall 12.15.23	Dillinger was gonna be my rec for real Guess I’ll say Converge and / or ETID instead, idk you don’t have many rating to go off ETID is Every Time I Die by the way, old habits die hard
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	I mean, doing a discog run in the first place is challenging for me because I can sometimes have a hard time sitting through even a whole album for some reason? I kinda wanted to challenge myself for 2024
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Yeah, my ratings are pretty slim LMAO I'll add both to the list, but I'm probably gonna go for ETID first. Converge has been that one core band that never really clicked, despite multiple attempts
AsleepInTheBack 12.15.23	Nails is a quick win The Hotelier is another easy win flawless discog
BookoftheFallen 12.15.23	check He is Legend
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Probably gonna do some discovery in January, along with taking care of the 7 discogs I chose myself. I'll start up with the albums in February
onionbubs 12.15.23	alexisonfire and poison the well would be good dives to do prob. mis sigs too give or take their last album
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	I'll add all 3!
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Damn, 30 discogs in just a couple hours? Between this and new releases, 2024's gonna be a busy as hell year
GhandhiLion 12.15.23	Check Sun Ra
AnimalForce1 12.15.23	Holy fuck, the size of that discog...
BlazinBlitzer 12.16.23	Check The Chariot
onionbubs 12.16.23	"Holy fuck, the size of that discog..." lmao almost went full chaos mode and went guided by voices but also i want you to actually have fun so dont do that
0xME 12.16.23	check Counterparts
0xME 12.16.23	"Holy fuck, the size of that discog..." he could always go for Buckethead lmao
KTDB 12.16.23	Nine inch nails albums and EPs - just leave out the remix albums and Ghost albums.
AsleepInTheBack 12.16.23	Top this off with Merzbow, John Zorn and Buckethead and you’re golden
GhandhiLion 12.16.23	Sput is missing a few sun ra recordings. I'll add them now 👍
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	"just leave out the remix albums and Ghost albums." Remix albums yes, Ghost albums no. I consider those part of the official discog, so I'd be including those. I like a good bit of instrumental ambience. Ben, Ghandhi, you've both lost rec privileges
GhandhiLion 12.16.23	: [
onionbubs 12.16.23	yea the ghost albums are pretty cool and better than a good chunk of the non ghost nin albums would also advise skyharbor if youre gonna do the tesseract dive. only three albums tho
Calc 12.16.23	buckethead
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	No.
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	"would also advise skyharbor if youre gonna do the tesseract dive. only three albums tho" That's the band that Dan Tompkins sang lead in, right?
Azazzel 12.16.23	>NIN remixes sure there's a surfeit of better material in the discog like the EPs and film scores but if you're gonna go whole hog anyways I would be sure to still hit the exceptionally beautiful acoustic Still 2002 and after you're acquainted with the The Fragile come back around to Things Falling Apart, it's very interesting recompositions not just adding a different beat or whatever and if you really really end up liking NIN the live album/DVDs from 2002 to 2007 are a joy
Azazzel 12.16.23	also, if I could toss a band in here for your taste I'd say Trophy Scars, not too big a catalogue and a remarkably ranged upward developmental arc with lots of discussion around them on this site to engage with
onionbubs 12.16.23	@animal yea dan sings on the first two skyharbor albums (tbh the only worthwhile ones lol but maybe youll dig their third more than i)
JohnnyoftheWell 12.16.23	"yea the ghost albums are pretty cool and better than a good chunk of the non ghost nin albums" good take / mid band and [2] for trophy scars, essential band for all generations of sputcore
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	I’ve listened to Darkness, Oh Hell, and I remember enjoying it! Probably gonna end up rechecking it during this run
botb 12.16.23	Shai Hulud
Mort. 12.16.23	'Glassjaw Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence Rec'd by JohnnyoftheWell Know the lead singer from BMTH's Amen. That's it.' ahhhhhhhhh i hate getting older stop
Havey 12.16.23	beatles
demigod! 12.16.23	i love it hes subjecting the rest of his music listening life to the whims of sput Do Camel
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	"i love it hes subjecting the rest of his music listening life to the whims of sput" I'm Gen Z, how am I supposed to form opinions and discover things without the assistance of online influencers and forums?
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	In all seriousness, I usually am really bad at discovering things because I love my comfort zone. Figured this'd be a good way to break out and expand!
onionbubs 12.16.23	the peter gabriel discog would be a fun one to do ngl, esp now. isnt terribly daunting either if you stick to just the 8 studio albums of originals and dont jam the soundtracks/cover albums
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	"beatles" I've actually already done this discog run before! Over a period of several years, but I'm familiar with their discography
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	He just released a new album recently right? I've seen it in BNM
onionbubs 12.16.23	yeah i/o dropped like two weeks ago, and it was his first album of originals since 2002
AnimalForce1 12.16.23	Hmm, okay! I'll probably have him higher on the priority list then
onionbubs 12.16.23	yeah tbh i only hopped on the train when i found out that was happening lol just kinda didnt realize the scope of his discog outside of the hits, and altho some of his stuff kinda challenged me a bit at first, his catalogue (esp his first four albums and up) has been immensely transformative in my musical journey over the last few months. might be my favorite artist i got into this year ngl
ArsMoriendi 12.16.23	Do... uh... Oneida!
DoofDoof 12.16.23	do The The
BAT 12.17.23	at the drive-in
DominionMM1 12.17.23	melvins
AnimalForce1 12.19.23	Well, 42 potential artists to consider for a discog run! That's, um, quite a lot. Not sure if I should keep the list going or just say that I've gotten enough recs for now lol
Dewinged 12.19.23	What do you say? You need some more you say? I'd do a Type O Negative discog run for sure!
AnimalForce1 01.02.24	Welp… gonna have to start discovering soon, and I’ve got a lot of artists to do it with!
JohnnyoftheWell 01.02.24	You're two days in how many have you finished
AnimalForce1 01.02.24	0 lol. I’m still back home and spending time with family so I’ve had little time to listen to music. Probably gonna kick back up once I head back to college
AnimalForce1 01.02.24	Also, I think I’m gonna make a second list once the discog runs officially start. Sorta like Hawks’s BM challenge list
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	I was working on making a playlist on my phone for discovery month so that I wouldn't be constantly going back to the damn search bar, and Apple Music ate up half of the songs I put on there. I'd like to ask why Apple has so much money, and why somehow, despite that, their app sometimes works worse than Spotify. I know Spotify has a lot of money too, but... it's fucking Apple we're talking about
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	Okay, the web player worked a lot better, thank god
mryrtmrnfoxxxy 01.04.24	have fun bud you got some sick bands here
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	I can tell, Rolo Tomassi and Palm Reader are already must-listens for me. I've only just started the discovery portion oh god. I gotta make sure I don't overload myself lol
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	Taking a break from discovery but we're off to a damn good start, I must say! Still got a shit ton of bands left, but I've got a whole month for this
Cygnatti 01.04.24	Thought this was about disco and got excited for a moment.
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	Next year's big project
Cygnatti 01.04.24	Excellent. I hope this year is fruitful and exciting for you.
Feather 01.04.24	I am doing a discog dive on la dispute right now. I already know and love all their stuff though
Feather 01.04.24	@animal ditch apple, spotify is the truth
AnimalForce1 01.04.24	I’ve been using Apple for years LMAO Dad got the family plan so it’s been the default for a while
Feather 01.04.24	I am the owner of my families family (and friend, uncle, sister) plan and realized recently that I have had my premium plan for over 10 years so I am definitely biased.
AnimalForce1 01.05.24	Day 2 of discovering! Probably won't get through as many bands today, but I'm hoping to do the next 3 or 4
AnimalForce1 01.05.24	I already have 14 bands that I said I'm definitely doing... oh lord, I might be a bit too eager here LMAO
mryrtmrnfoxxxy 01.05.24	can't tell if you liked Cows
JohnnyoftheWell 01.05.24	lol lfg good luck with Sikth/Supercar/Seiko (good luck with her early shit lol - make sure you start with the PINK ep and don't skip the Persona compilation later on)
AnimalForce1 01.05.24	@foxxxy I didn't mind them, but I don't think they're what I'm looking for in a discog run atm. Something just didn't click on the discovery listen @Johnny thanks for the luck! Yeah, I'll have to be scouring YT for that shit, her earlier albums are just not on any streaming services here in the States
AnimalForce1 01.10.24	After a brief hiatus, I'll be returning to discovery listening today. I need to pick up my new earbuds
ArsMoriendi 03.09.24	I remember this list
neekafat 03.09.24	Aw I missed this ):
ArsMoriendi 03.09.24	I'm just waiting to see if he does Oneida, that band desperately needs more attention Each One Teach One is a great album
AnimalForce1 03.10.24	I think I left Oneida off my official list, but I’ll probably still do it if I find the time!
