Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!
See this post on recs on how to post!
The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Where to find ren:
I love this album so much, but knowing that the songwriter Jason Molina had died from alcoholism adds a deeper sadness to all the lyrics. Once you hear it from that lens... woof.
Farewell Transmission came across my discover weekly and absolutely saved that one to my liked list. Sad to hear about the songwriter. I will have to give the rest of the album a go in the near future.
I love it but with the context, it can really get in the feels.
Fantastic melancholy album, love it.
I was just listening to The Lioness two days ago. Great music to be depressed to.
love music that makes me sad, makes my heart ache. Unf.
