Last.fm used to be my solution for this. It connects to a variety of players and just handles the tracking/recommendation/discovery aspect. No idea how it stacks up to current algorithm offerings though, I haven’t used it since Spotify launched Discover Weekly. But I suppose if the subscription services aren’t cutting it you could add this on top.
Spotify’s For You recommendations are good if you tailor it to what you like and strictly stick to it. But just searching and playing a random song once will mess the algorithm up.
That was a group that should have been bigger. If they’d had a better second album, I think they might have done that. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t the massive piece of art the first one was, barring ease my mind. The gap after zingalamaduni kinda broke the flow. The stuff since they started back just doesn’t have that magic.
But that first album? Not a dud on it. I fucking played that thing so much. Tennessee was my favorite. Just a brilliant track. But children play with earth and raining revolution were right there with it.
Cymbals are reversed through most of the intro. Sounds to me like they used the low E on the rhythm guitar (single string note) tuned down to D or E flat and then used knob tuning to bring it up into the full E for that first note. Distortion on the guitar is heavy with weight in the low and mid frequencies.
It doesn't sound like a bass to me (sound would be rounder with more depth from the thicker strings) - that's the sound of a long neck guitar, possibly an Ibanez RG series. The low end on them sounds quite close to a light bass.
Sounds like distorted guitar that has a volume faded in. But also the high frequencies fade in as well. Then near the end of the fade, a crash cymbal fades in on top, it might be reversed, hard to say listening on phone speaker. Not too mention the “ughghhh”.
Sounds like they struck the strings of an e-bass, then slowly turned up the volume on the amplifier. Then it sounds like just a normal/acoustic drumset kicking in…
