A friend put me onto Alestorm lately: https://alestorm.bandcamp.com/album/the-thunderfist-chronicles

This is dumb, and niche, and way over-the-top, and it's absolutely perfect. There aren't many artists that can hit the right balance between being too stupid and too smart (Explorers of the Internet comes to mind), but it's always incredible to see it in action. My favourite kind of music will always be the kind where you can tell talented artists were able to create without any compromises.
