Here's one that immediately comes to mind.
There are other artists that use retro-futuristic sounds, but none sound like OPN.

>>51412531

Sufjan Stevens - Age Of Adz
Haven't found anything else that blends like 50 genres into one style.

>>51412578

A lot of prog blends weird stuff together. The Dear Hunter makes simpler, less singer-songwritery prog that you might like.

There are still no other prog/hip-hop/post-rock bands as good as Subtle.
Please prove me wrong guys.

>>51412689
>transcendental black metal

Describes Sunbather pretty well. Both are equally bad as well.

>>51412759
>Describes Sunbather pretty well
then how come it doesn't sound anything like it

>>51412612
Yeah I like the Dear Hunter, but I was more thinking of Sufjan's incorporation of bleeps and stuff into his normal genre-blending music.
>>51412689
Isn't this mostly black metal mixed with math rock though? Still good.

It doesn't sound anything like it because your choice of words is pretty generic & fits both, so you oughta buy a dictionary and learn some new words.

Dean Blunt's releases also sound unique to me.
And I'd say Coil's later albums, but they do sound similar to each other if nothing else.

>>51412979
Archive, unless they're dead.

>>51412553
Really? I love OPN but this album sounds reasonably interchangeable with, say, Boards of Canada or some of Hype Williams' catalog to me.

why don't you go ahead post examples of albums like these then? i'm sure the anons would appreciate it

>>51413120
hey i love this album. no one else really likes them.

>>51413031
Cyclobe is pretty similar to later Coil, but mostly by virtue of being ex-Coil collaborators.

>>51413162
Who is this ?

>>51413197
Jam City - Classical Curves

>>51413154
why are there so many albums of different bands with those green stripes on the cover and the circle with the name?

>>51413189
It kind of blew my mind the first time I heard it. The first time I heard Behind the Mirrors my jaw was on the floor for the whole song. I've never really heard anything that captures a feeling of emptiness quite like that album.

>>51413283
behind the mirrors is my favorite but protest song might be goat track.

Good stuff too, not weird for the sake of weird, unlike some of the stuff ITT

>>51413371
this is just some heavy metal band, dude.

>>51413429
The musical composition and blend of traditional experimental metal with esoteric Hungarian music is unlike anything I've ever heard.

You're not wrong, Eyedea & Abilities maybe, idk

hope you like it bub

>>51413533
As much as I love E&A, they're not really like Subtle.
Other anticon hip-hop bands like Young Fathers, Why?, or The Skyrider Band come a bit closer, but Subtle/13 & God stands alone.

>>51413175
Of course, there are no carbon copies these albums but there's stuff out there that's similar.

A lot of contemprorary rap acts sound similar to Danny (or vice versa). Ranging from clipping, Ab, Shabazz, or at times reminding me of Bronson.

Lithurgy is trickier but I'd say stuff like Dope Body sounds similar to it, at least instrumentally. Difference being, one's mixed with BM, the other with Punk.

And OPN's just a slew of ambient plus vaporwave (well, because it's opn after all).

I'm not saying any of these albums are bad. Just we all know about these albums, wanted to see more out there stuff.

>>51413371
this just sounds like run-of-the-mill metal.

>>51413624
>Lithurgy
also you basically just said they don't sound like anything else lol

Also Replica isn't vaporwave. R+7 sounds more like vaporwave, and it's still not at all. They both get grouped into the "scene" because he released eccojams before both of them (same reason Returnal gets grouped in). He didn't even know what vaporwave is according to his reddit ama

This is weird shit. Heavy ass bass riffing with drumming that sounds like free jazz meets post death metal, at times at grindcore speed with mad piano playing that appears to be distorted like a theremin at some points, and the odd manic yell here and there. Too bad they moved on to doing fairly basic industrial rock after this.

>>51413819

This album and Rudimentary Peni's Cacophony are the 2 that spring to mind, they are 2 of the 4 albums I consider 10/10s

>>51414253
except most "hipster" bm is post-rock infused blackgays and has nothing in common with that album

>>51412689
good troll, would be 7/10 but 8/10 'cause i'm responding and actually kinda mad lol

>>51414338
that album is just half-baked black metal song ideas that go nowhere + gratingly bright production


it does nothing new or interesting, it's just bad songwriting applied to black metal

fuck yeah, i love this ep so much. too bad lp was nothing like it.

>>51414576
krallice has a similar guitar style but they tend to drag a little too much for my liking. still pretty good.
the closest i've come to that album in terms of feeling would have to be De-Loused, but even that's rather far-fetched
