I thought I recognized the text. I hate linking to reddit though.

I think the straightforward-ness of it is what I like about it. I'm deriving satisfaction from - and appreciating - the restraint and media-literacy necessary to write a concise yet factual description of some, frankly, bonkers shit.

alt-text is the meta art form of Lemmy and posts like this are why.

Already taken. It's what I call my Hot Hot Heat! Cover band.

I quite like Brian Disease though, but I haven't to imagine it is also taken.

Amazing! Thank you so much. I said F you to Spotify earlier this afternoon with the help of you and another Lemmy user. I hope I can help someone else as much as you've helped me.

I know I will eventually. I also just really want to support them, and will buy a copy of all of their albums whenever I am able to. I don't even speak spanish but their music just lights me up.

Well you just hooked me up with the album I'd all but given up on, so thank you tremendously. Since I at least have the other album on Vinyl, I think I am going to pull the trigger and cancel my Spotify now. Now I don't exactly need to go to Guadalajara, though I hope to see Porter live one day.

Thanks again for your help!

Thanks! I wrote off Tidal as an also-ran like a decade ago and haven't heard of the others so these were not on my radar at all. I will check them out. I didn't even know Tidal was still a thing!

I'm not familiar with Deezer but will investigate. Thank you!

They are on the internet, but only streaming on the Big Bads. If you can find me a hookup I will be forever grateful.

The first Album, and the toughest case is an album by a band called Porter from Guadalajara. I have all of their albums except for my very favorite, Las Batallas.

The second album really should be on Bandcamp, and probably will eventually, since the band has a page there. It's the most recent and self-titled release from an awesome little band called Mo Lowda and The Humble.

All else aside, I highly recommend these bands to anyone who likes good rock music. Both albums are no-skip for me but two standout tracks for each: for Las Batallas you have got to check out "Himno Eterno" and "Hombre Maquina". For Mo Lowda, "O.O.Y.O" and "Dog At The Pound"

The irony of these being the two I haven't been able to add to my Plex library is that these are probably the two most prominently featured albums on Spotify Wrapped last year.

No kidding. Consider the possibility that this was the first avenue I pursued and was nevertheless stymied in my efforts.

One of the bands only sells vinyl outside of Spotify (I have the record on Vinyl, but the process of digitizing it is similar to recording straight from Spotify but harder), and the other band is based in Mexico and doesn't have a digital marketplace. In both cases I've literally emailed the bands offering to overpay for raw digital files but haven't heard back yet. I am seriously considering flying to Guadalajara to catch them live and pick up a CD there. They don't really tour in the US north of Texas.

But I'll keep my eye out for CDs.
