Need Metal and Rock songs that have that "chill" vibe.

Songs like "Solitude" and "Planet Caravan" by Black Sabbath, or "No Quarter" by Led Zepplin. I find that, especially in the case of these two, bands that are known for their heavy riffs and thrashy drums are somehow also the masters of producing these relaxing and reflective songs. I want enough to fill a decent sized playlist (some 20-30 tracks) from across the ages. Thanks guys!

Songs like Show Me How by Men I Trust

I'd like songs with similar vibes to Show me how. Personally, even if the song sound melancholy, I do not see this song as sad, just calming and comforting. The beat is not exciting but it is also not depressing. I'd like to know other songs that give off this vibes.

Bands similar to Rage Against The Machine?

Looking for bands similar to RATM, in terms of groove (I'm a bass player and love Tim Commerford so much) and/or political engagement. Thx

Hauntingly gorgeous orchestral pieces & film scores

Looking for beautiful compositions & soundtracks that you instantly fell in love with. Not necessarily grand, loud & epic scores. Pieces that make you feel like crying, but are however strangely uplifting. Heart-breaking and heart-healing. Bittersweet tearjerkers. Or songs that make you close your eyes, stir your soul and take you on an emotional nostalgia-like journey.

Obviously, it's all personal. But here are some that do it for me:

Looking for odd, weird, different, unique cover songs for a playlist

Hey! We're curating a playlist of 'Crazy Covers', looking for recommendations of different/unexpected cover versions, ideally from smaller lesser known artists or songs that aren't big hits for the band (Unbreak My Heart by Weezer for example). We have 9 so far, things like Party Rock Anthem by Sweet Electric, (I'm gonna be) 500 miles by MxPx. All suggestions welcome, thanks!

Songs about language varieties

Hi, does anyone can recommend songs that address the topic of language varieties or prejudices and consequences of speaking a Non-Standard form of English? (e.g. Jamaican English, Nigerian English, Indian English ...) Can be from any cultural background, or m usic genre. I am just interested in songs that reflect that topic in the lyrics. I would be really thankful for your help!

Bands to listen to based off my taste?

Been getting more into rock, trying to wean off rap and get into more music. The bands I’ve enjoyed the most are SOAD, Linkin Park, RHCP, Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead, PATD (first album) and some Slipknot. Mostly mainstream but any suggestions for other bands that you think would fit in with this please let me know! Anything helps
