Part of Recommendations, 11 sections of picks from GritCult's posts.
GRITCULT treats music as a double-edged blade: one of the most powerful drugs on earth and the devil's favourite tool, yet also a portal into being locked in and a source he actively mines for weird new sound. his takes split between hard warnings about overconsumption and genuine recs leaning experimental.
Views
he's blunt that music is a drug to be rationed, not mainlined. limit how often you listen, save it for the gym or long road trips, because how hard it's pushed on people is overkill [1]. he goes further on the spiritual cost, calling concerts portals for demonic possession and naming music the favourite tool of the devil [2]. but he also frames the right kind of listening as a gateway to being locked in [3].
when he does recommend, he wants it strange, repeatedly begging for new music and the weirder the better [4]. his picks run experimental and street both: Yves Tumor, Pop Smoke whose work he reckons will age well, and a track he rates for one of the best openings ever.
