/r/ListeningHeads
A subreddit dedicated to listening and discussing all types of music.
A subreddit dedicated to listening and discussing all types of music, with a lean towards music outside of the mainstream.
You can find our rules and guidelines for the sub here.
POSTING GUIDELINES
You can post discussion about any artist, any genre of music, any era, etc.
In terms of posting music, only post music (either songs or full albums) that has been released in the past 7 days and follow our tagging guidelines below. The only exception to this rule will be on our weekly Throwback Thursdays, when you can post any song from any era. Please post a direct link to the song or album.
When writing a self-post, please make a thread that will generate real discussion beyond the first response of the thread. Try to create a discussion that is nuanced and can have substantive replies. Examples of posts that do NOT meet this criteria: "Does anyone else..." posts, "What is the name of that one song..." posts, posts that are only a yes/no response, "What is the best [insert genre here] album ever?" posts, and "Why do people like this song/band/album?" posts. The only exception to this rule, however, is our weekly Shitpost Sundays, where you can post any type of self-post that you'd like.
Please post every Throwback Thursday in a self post with a description of why you are posting this song. This only needs to be a paragraph or two long, but give us some background on what the song means to you. This is to spark a little discussion when posting music to the sub.
FORMATTING GUIDELINES
When posting, please use the Artist-Song Title format.
Do your best to stylize the artist/album/song name in the same way that the artist prefers.
This table will explain when to use each tag.
| Tag | Use |
|---|---|
| [FRESH] | Brand new song released |
| [FRESH ALBUM] | Brand new album released |
| [FRESH STREAM] | A stream newly released |
| [ORIGINAL] | Brand new song/album released by you or someone you know. ONLY POST ORIGINAL WORK IF YOU ARE A REGULAR USER OF THIS SUB. BREAKING THIS RULE WILL RESULT IN A BAN |
| [LEAK] | A newly released leak (DO NOT POST ILLEGAL DOWNLOAD LINKS) |
| [DISCUSSION] | A post meant to be discussed by the users |
| [AMA] | AMA related post |
| [OFFICIAL DISCUSSION] | A post that is meant to be the official discussion behind an album/song/event after giving time for users to listen to and process. |

Please help me choose my next album
I haven’t listened to any of these albums yet, I posted something similar to this yesterday but made some changes to it. All of these albums captured my interest in one way or another but I’d appreciate if anyone could recommend some to me from these! Thanks!

Picking my next album to listen to
Hello everyone, I am picking my next album to listen to among this list of albums that has captured my interest in one way or another. For pretty much all of these albums, I know nothing about them other that being pretty familiar with some of the artists. For the ones I'm not as familiar with, they're there because I have been recommended their music, specifically these albums. Anyway, I'm having a hard time picking which one I should go for next, and I just want to hear from any fans of some of these albums, without spoiling anything at all, which ones you like and why. Thanks!
