Music is something that always had such a big impact on me. Growing up I loved listening to music, singing, and dancing. Even though this opinion has changed through out the years, I still cherish all of my favorites.

take me back to eden – Sleep Token

Sleep Token is one of my favorite bands for a few reasons. The artists is super talented and he does a great job on his songs. They’re my favorite to listen to while driving and doing homework.

alkatraz – demondice

Favorite Song: Sick Outta Fashion

This one is kind of an odd pick, but it is one of my favorites because I love to listen to faster paced music while I play games. This type of music is perfect for that and so I love it.

This is one of those lighthearted albums that I love to listen to while I am out doing things. The beats are honestly just so happy and I love to listen to her voice.

Paramore – Paramore

Favorite Song: Proof

This self-titled album is honestly just one of nostalgia. I have honestly loved Paramore for a long time but I used to have this album on repeat in 7th grade. I can scream every song and honestly it is just so good.

Punisher – Pheobe Bridgers

This album is honestly just something I love listening to. She creates art through songs and it is something that I am just absolutely obsessed with watching unfold in her music.

This album is just perfect to vibe out to. The quick upbeat clashes with the melodramatic lyrics, making you want to dance.

Bury me at makeout creek – mitski

Favorite Song: All of them.

I am a Mitski girl through in through. I listen to her discography everyday and honestly she’s just on repeat. I love her lyrics and the emotion in her voice that genuinely just give me goosebumps. This album is my favorite of hers and honestly this list would only be her but I have to give light to some of my other favs.
