For example, I first heard Suburban Legends - Polyester, so I went to check Suburban Legends and they were just a regular ska band.

What’s your “that song was great, I wish the band did more of that” song and band?

    For me it was an album, “Nothing is True & Everything is Possible” by Enter Shikari.

    There are multiple songs I absolutely love from this album, but when I went to look at more of their songs, they had a completely different vibe.

      Huh. I love A Flash Flood of Colour, but I dislike Nothing Is True and Everything is Possible. I thought the album was gonna be a reference to the Chaos Magic mantra “nothing is true, everything is permitted”, which was famously used as part of the Assassin’s Creed in the video game. I thought it was gonna be anarcho-antirealist.

      But they’re actually complaining about the antirealism of modern culture! They’re being big authoritarian realists and having a whinge about how the zeitgeist is going antirealist! Boooo! Reactionary!
