Forums » Smalltalk » Can someone recommend a similar artist?

So I am absolutely in love with the music of Iain Armour - although people might be more familiar with his stage name, Fox Amoore. I stumbled across him a while back over the score he did for a game trailer and fell in love with the mix of epic fantasy soundtracks and his fun alt-rock stuff. I think he's somewhat well known among the furry fandom, and I figure a lot of ya'll hang around here so I'd ask around.

Anyway so I've been listening to his incredible music for a while and I've yet to find anyone who sounds anything like him.

This is a demo he put out for an upcoming album, which I've practically been listening to on repeat for four days. (Especially that Fruit Cups one! )

Does anybody know of any artists that put out similar music to him? I'm less interested in the soundtracks and more in the songs, because I already have half a dozen "fantasy music" playlists. I've been randomly listening to alt-rock tags on Soundcloud but it's such a vague genre name and I'm looking for something specific, pretty close to this guy's style - (but obviously not identical!)

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd owe you one!

I mean, I can give you sorta close examples that might fit your tastes:

St. Lucia

Saint Motel


Atlas Genius

Wolf Gang


To a lesser extent maybe these:

Young the Giant

Satellite Stories

Joywave

Just musically speaking. Not silly-nonsensical lyrics. If that's what your looking for that's a different list all together.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give them all a listen
