Tyrant of Death coming in at just over 4000 listeners!

He’s excellent. If you like industrial metal or the Doom soundtrack you’ll probably like ToD. There’s no vocals, so I imagine this will appeal to DnB and EDM fans as well.
I recommend Generation Bliss (link for bandcamp because it’s not on Spotify… wtf bro this your best album!)

I must have listened to this 50 times
ohhhh shit… I started playing it and I’m getting chills at 20 seconds in. It’s so good. I’ve never heard anything like it.

Nice!! I have almost all of them but I keep going back to the classics.
Monarch ! the slowest band on earth a French Drone metal band who is heavy as hell and plays so slowly that it’s edge between music and noise. Pretty great if you want to set-up a dark-ambience or want to chill out over slow music.
Also they’re great on stage and the musicians are accessible like you can talk with them after the concert

Seriously though, this sounds like it’s right up my alley!
Technically they’re just over the 5000 monthly listeners limit (6955), but Xanthochroid is still relatively unknown and my favorite band of all time, so I can’t not share them.
Joshua Rotten. A few singles, an EP, decent music that simply went nowhere and he hasn’t made anything in years.

I have no idea how to judge the number of listeners, but Norwegian artist Making Marks (formerly mylittlepony) is great.
And Nineteen Forty-Five literally has no bad tracks on either of their published LPs.
People tend to use monthly listeners on Spotify for this. It’s not a perfect metric as other platforms isn’t included, but it does the job

Also if you’re into pop punk
200ish listeners a month… Criminal. This will likely be my hip hop album of the year if not the album of the year for me
Argyle Park and their official unoffical sequel AP2. Around 2.5k combined. My favorite song is “A New Wound” which is actually incorrectly listed as “A New World” but it is so unpopular that will probably never be fixed.

Lori Denae - 16 monthly listeners. Kinda Wanna is a great song.
Maida Rose - 1,192 monthly listeners. Harmony of Heartache is great too!
Diamons Dallas Tex Although I’m pretty sure, a guy named Lil Texas is behind it, but I do not have confirmation.
Found them through their singer’s YT channel. They describe themselves as acoustic stoner rock, which I feel is a good description. Lots of influence from Queens of the Stone Age.
