Bands and Artists To Be Thankful For
It’s an obvious choice, but with what other artist can you explore folk, glam, soul, avant garde, drum ‘n’ bass, industrial, and pop sounds all within the confines of their back catalog?
For all you lonely boys (and girls), a glam pop trip hop slice of debauched, drama-tinged electro from the Sneaker Pimps mastermind, Chris Corner.
From what other black leather clad dictator of hard rock can we receive a reading list that includes Kierkegaard, Camus, Marx, and the King James Bible? Here’s to the aestheticization of Leftist thought!
This Royal Trux and RTX artist has challenged hegemonic conceptions of gender, vocalization, and genre all while maintaining an incredible, inimitible personal style.
Yet another obvious choice, but his vocal style has influenced some of the most darkly romantic crooners of the past 30 years. I like to trace a stylistic line from the King to Jim Morrison to Billy Idol, Glenn Danzig and Ian Astbury…
