Two examples that come to me immediately are Enya and Smashing Pumpkins. If music starts feeling stale, I can put on Enya and music feels new again. It's such a pleasant departure from the standard pop/rock/RnB etc sounds that dominate (even if I like those artists).

Anybody have their own equivalents?

Their latest album Fear Inoculum is a masterpiece

Thanks for the rec, I'm listening to it now. I currently on the first track and it's already excellent - just like that "rediscovering music" feeling I've been looking for! Very rare to experience this so thanks again. They've developed quite a bit since Undertow, when I last heard them.

Hell yeah, I'm pumped to hear you're giving it a listen and enjoying it!

If you ever happen to take shrooms or acid, definitely make some time to listen to this album, or 10,000 Days, or Lateralus. they're all incredible on psychedelics, there's so many nuances that really come to life

I doubt myself and psychedelics would mix very well, but I'll definitely check out 10,000 Days or Lateralus and see if they hold up when I'm on liquorice tea and Tony's Chocolonely :)
