Death metal. Death metal while birding (or more like processing footage). Death metal while cross stitching. Death metal while crocheting. It's a weird outlet that I mostly keep to myself.

I can't let go of it either, though I don't listen to it as frequently anymore. Got any good recs?

Lately I find myself listening to The Ocean Collective, Mors Principium est, Be'lakor, Soilwork, Between the Buried and Me. Generally more melodic and progressive stuff. Sometimes I put on metalcore which can also be a banger like Monuments (saw them live earlier this year, they were amazing), Periphery, Bleed From Within.

I know some purists would jump on my classification but it's hard for me to put labels on music these days with bands having a much more unique style, rather than fixing themselves into a specific genre.

Nice! I haven't heard of those first few, I'll check em out. Soilwork and Between the Buried and Me are solid, so is Periphery

I listen to metal while doing a lot of things and no shame there :)
