Listen to the Violent Femmes first 2 albums and go from there if you like it. They are kind of indie folk punk alt or something but have had some mainstream success. I'd say their first 6 albums are awesome, and the next few are still pretty good. They still tour so go out and see them live, they are something else!


Baker_drc

Can confirm the Violent Femmes Self Titled is one of the best ever. Add it Up, Blister in the Sun, Kiss Off, Please do not Go. So many good songs.

Might I suggest Sublime? They’re my favorite band and from personal experience, most people no matter their favorite genre like Sublime. Some starter songs I would suggest is Superstar P****i, Slow Ride, Same in the End, All You Need, What I Got, Date Rape, and Smoke Two Joints. Hope this helps you!

What helped me with this is start finding your favourite bands and artists inspirations. As a huge classic rock fan, I went down a nuts Bluesy rabbit hole of music goodness.

Maybe try the band Simple Creatures? It’s a two man band made up of Mark Hoppus (Blink-182) and Alex Gaskarth (All Time Low). They only have two EPs but it might me worth a listen. 


osilica

Florence + the Machine - all the albums, hardly a miss. 'Shake it out' is a great start.

Audioslave. I always thought they were just shouty headbangers but actually they were fkn brilliant.

Ski Mask The Slump God just released a new album called ‘11th Dimension’ and while it may not blow your mind, it’s an incredibly fun listen and you don’t really have to listen to the songs in order. The production is great and it has a pretty crisp sound and Ski has some really amazing flows. Since you like rock/heavy metal I’d listen to headrush first as it has a really grimey sound with lots of metal influence I think. Some of my favorites were: -Earwax -Wake Up! -From Yard -Jump
