Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!
See this post on recs on how to post!
The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Where to find ren:
I remember, years ago, a good friend and I were talking about the Strokes, when they were brand new. He said he didn't like them because they were just digging up old sounds he already knew. I said that was why I liked them. These young people had re-discovered bands from the late 70s, twisted that sound around to make new music with. I dig it. He did not get me at all. lol
This band too. I dig it. They're good. I don't care if they sound a lot like any number of other bands. Good is good.
