CrazyEightyEight is a post hardcore band made by Lauren Babic, Jarrod Alone, and Party Walters. Their whole theme is every song is a super on the nose reference to a movie.

Check out Peelander-z. They're sort of like if mighty Morphin power rangers formed a punk band and went on tour everywhere they fought a monster.

It doesn't look like they've toured since 2019 and their website hasn't been updated with news in a while so they might be done. Seeing them live was a highlight and probably will never be matched, but you can still enjoy finding them.

Amon Amarth is some excellent Viking metal.

Alestorm is entertaining pirate metal.

Valient Thorr has a shtick where they claim to be sent from Venus (although musically, I grew to like them less the more I listened to them).

Okilly Dokilly was a Ned Flanders themed metal band (although again, I'm not particularly recommending them, as I really didn't care for the one song of theirs I heard).

Austrian Death Machine was a side project of the frontman of As I Lay Dying (the one who served time in prison and has since been released) based entirely on Arnold Schwarzenegger movie quotes

I'm sure there are a ton of others I'm not thinking of off the top of my head, but these are the first ones that jump to mind.

Coheed and Cambria and Claudio's side project The Prize Fighter Inferno are almost entirely one cohesive story save, C&C's album The Color Before The Sun.

I’m not a huge fan of her original music, but her talent is undeniable. I also have to remind myself that Miley is still pretty young. She’s been in the business for a while but started at 14. She seems to be maturing in a healthy way while still staying artistically relevant. I suspect I will enjoy her music more and more as she ages.
