Yoo Doo Right was exactly what I was looking for. An excellent suggestion for an album right up my alley that I may not have come across otherwise. Goes straight into my top 10 for the year. Thanks for the great recs ghost! Feel free to drop me more anytime.

Checked out N0v3l. Very good gloomy angular post-punk. I hadn't come across them before so thanks for the great rec.

Such a great 2021 chart! Quite similar music tastes I feel but I've only heard just under half of these. I would love a personal recommendation of what to check out from here first if you feel so inclined.
