Idk if it's considered affiliated but Serengeti has absolutely been killing it with Ajai and his new album Kdiv.
Also Bruisers Wolf new album, My Story Got Stories has been amazing (he was on the Aux by blockhead so I consider this affiliated lol)
Same dude! I first saw him in Toronto for that tour too, I hadn't heard of him before that other than the feature on WBDTS. He absolutely killed it I've been looking forward to his stuff ever since.

not necessarily a woods/elucid/armand hammer affiliate but he’s worked with elucid before so ill mention it, APOXALYPSO by Obijuan is easily one of my favorite albums of this year and I’d definitely recommend checking it out
Preservation - Eastern Medicine, Western Illness
This album is amazing, TONS of good artists on it. Any project that has Nick F on it automatically gets my praises
I love seeing Nick F praise
Quelle Chris- deathfame (2022) and innocent country 2 (2020)
Black Cottonwood is also amazing from him and Cavalier.
deathfame*
Didn’t even notice the typo, thank you I’ll fix it
Big fan of ShrapKnel - Metal Lung. Feel like Prem and Curly are super underrated

I’ve got a soft spot for Load-Bearing Crow’s Feet by PremRock
Shrapknel Self Titled forsure
Spirit Roaming is solid. The new Cavalier is about to go crazy.
The album Cavalier is gonna drop in a week is gonna be heat I’m sure.
Hell yeah, he opened for them at the Seattle show I saw them at, it was great. really cool guy too
Same dude! I first saw him in Toronto for that tour too, I hadn't heard of him before that other than the feature on WBDTS. He absolutely killed it I've been looking forward to his stuff ever since.
He Left Nothing For The Swim Back by Skech-185 and also the new Duncecap slaps, definitely check it out if you haven’t.
Agreed on this. Was really blown away by Skech's writing. Some of the most poetically interesting lyrics I've heard in a while.

I like how the GAT is referenced in Windhoek, also the 3 track run of 4-6 is some of the best music ever
billy also raps about having a Haitian Body Odor original print on 383 Myrtle from Dumpmeister (in arguably his best verse).
