Glad you enjoyed them!
Yeah it's usually classified under trip-hop. Such a good album and the sound is so diverse. You would not think guns blazing and lonely souls came off the same album
Fuck me I forgot to add "You Can't Stop The Prophet" off of Sun Rises in the East, that's probably the best song on the album.
You should check out Psyence Fiction by UNKLE, I think you would enjoy it based on your taste for Gorillaz, and maybe Mezzanine by Massive Attack and Becoming X by Sneaker Pimps. My top picks off each album would be "Guns Blazing", "Bloodstain" and "Rabbit in Your Headlights" off the first one and "Black Milk", " Inertia Creeps" and "Mezzanine" off the second, and "Tesko Suicide" , "6 Underground" and "Spin Spin Sugar" off the third. But honestly I feel like these are just albums you gotta do a sequential listen of. Let me know if you enjoy any of them!
Actually one last one, I'd throw in The Sun Rises in the East by Jeru the Damaja, "Mental Stamina" and "Jungle Music" are solid
Any old smartphone with an audio jackand/or bluetooth capability will work TBH. Assuming you will just use spotify, the internal storage would usually be enough to save playlists offline for roadtrips without wifi. You can find MP3 players which are essentially stripped down smartphones to be exactly that if you really want something new though. Here's one on amazom https://a.co/d/8DIz1Qq.

Emancipator fucks heavy. I don't think I've ever heard an artist capture the feeling of misty forests and snow so perfectly. Just nature really. Safe in the Steep Cliffs and Dusk to Dawn are so evocative.
Motherfucker...
I don't (or at least try not to) swear around my ma. She doesn't like hearing them and that's enough reason for me. Of course every once in awhile I may drop one purposefully, for the little kick of annoying my ma. I share some of her sentiment though. In general I think swearing can be a bit vulgar/unpleasant, so I don't necessarily try to swear at every opportunity, but I do when I'm not around her.
I actually haven't even heard about this tbh, usually I just see another massacre of civilians in the news and go about my day feeling like shit
I love the short film for Axiom, I rewatch it every couple of months. Just an absolute banger of a music film. Baptism is such a raw and visceral track, and the accompanying video just elevates it.
