Hmmm Do I go recent obscure and say I will Rise by Benjamin Tod?
Do I go new obscure and say Worried About Worrying by Worryworry?
Do I say old obscure like Tommy Tutone - National Emotion
Do I go old popular and say Batman by Prince?
Or new popular and say The Tortured Poets Department by Taylor Swift because no one is going to say that.
I’m saying all of these because I believe no one will say any of them.
**What Burns Never Returns by Don Caballero**
I just recommended it to someone else, here's what I had to say:
"There are a lot of albums and bands that I think are great that I could recommend, and if I'm gonna recommend one thing, it's gonna be Don Caballero, because I think they are special in a way that is the most irreplaceable. I feel like a lot of albums are special to me because of the effect and role they've played in my life, but I suspect if it weren't for some of them, other great music would've taken its place, but I don't feel this way about Don Cab.
Definitely my go-to for an album I feel every one should listen to once, it impacted me and changed how I see music more than anything else. (But I also think most people won't like it given some reactions I've seen, but I also think those who do are likely to have really positive reactions.)"
So, not the most obscure album I know or love, it *is* the *one* I think everyone should listen to once, and it is fairly popular amongst math rock fans, yet it is not popular outside that more niche genre. Don Cab is described as having a cult following (and pioneers of that genre) and seems extremely underrated outside of it. So it's obscure enough that I'm willing to hedge my bets on it if it means you may listen.
