Harry Styles is my favorite right now, but there's several others. I'm a bit all over the place atm and I don't really have any specific genres, I listen to everything.

Ha, the HU clan. Love Yuve Yuve Yu.
 
I quite enjoy MGMT with their poppy synthesized songs. Gorillaz, Altitude(just smooth beats), Jack Stauber, Oliver Tree. And more if you would like to ask further.
 
Santigold is pretty good, my favourites are:
I'm a lady
GO
You'll find a way
Disperate youth
God from the machine

Preußens Gloria.
Du hast and Amerika by Rammstein.
Any sabaton song.
Most powerwolf songs.
I don't care by apocalyptica? Apocalyptia?
Drop Jesse kreidel.
Jjba's awaken.
Little v covers.
Any old classical song I forgot the name to but let's refer to it as fallout music.
The painkiller OST.
Erika. [Literally German Katyusha. But I'm bracing for the random assault.]
Der Mächtigste König im Luftrevier.
Hymm of the republic, blood upon the risers, and the mechanicus 40k covers.
Kalinka.
Some songs from the early 1900s but I forgot the name to.
Mountain by three days grace, animal, get out alive, I will not die, other songs.
99 luftballons, by Nena though I prefer the English version more.
Fortunate son by ccr I think it was.
Bird is the word by the trashmen.
Shadilay by P.E.P.E.. including the new covers/rock, metal, patriotic, orchestra.
Country roads, fallout version and the original classic.
Cars that go boom by l'trimm
All the things she said by t.A.T.u..
Trapped in the closet by R.Kelly. alotta memes and history jokes can be made.
Andrew W.K songs including ready to die.
And some anthems of England and France.

Things like Katy Perry's firework don't work for me. It serves more a distraction than an aide when writing, and makes more visualize nicer things than I work about and thus destroys coherence. Fitting songs work best.

Though I do listen to daftpunk, as well as the song I'm on a boat, and Taio Cruz like their higher song. Still works as good as a period song, but needs some mental adjustment. Because of all this, I know more of marches, anthems, and such than new music. Even if I'm not designing a RP or game, I tend to listen to these because I've listened to the type more. That and I think a number of modern songs are just garbage. Ain't got no passion or meaning to em.

[Edit, I also listen to Hollywood undead, Evanescence, Linkin Park, ACDC, Joan Jett, papa roach, etc but there's too many to list for coherence.]

That's why I didn't outright say all of them. :P I might add more songs in another post if I get bored or you're interested.
Like shaggy's wasn't me.

Thy yeets be done.
 
'eyyyy, as if i haven't given you enough music rec's already, let's add more!!!

i listen to a lot of indie and indie sub-genres, but i also really like hip-hop and r&b, pop, country - a little bit of everything, really...
where most people say "everything but country", i say "everything but metal and dubstep" instead.

my absolute top favorite band is linkin park because i STAN the emo shit, but also for the past several weeks i've been especially obsessed with:

and uh... yeah! well, you kind of already know my music taste VALEN T. VALEN T. and we're fairly similar already, but alas here i am, if not only for the sake of all the other music-loving dweebs. 😅

edit updated with links and a few more suggestions!

I second FKA twigs. I would also like to add Solange. If you like music in other languages I would say Cherrie as well. She has a song with Stormzy called "aldrig igen (må sådär)" and it is one of my current favorites.
 
Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Rage Against The Machine, Pentakill, Beastie Boys, Queen, Johnny Cash, CCR, and video game soundtracks.

It's generalized so if you do like older music, metal in particular, I can be more specific with "the best of".
 
time to spend the rest of my day listening to the recced albums u put that i haven't listened to yet! i hope this reply isn't too late, but here are some songs that i've found myself enjoying:
∙ jaehyun & d.ear - try again
∙ the lumineers - ophelia
∙ ten - new heroes
∙ hozier - movement
∙ kygo - firestone
∙ lofi cover - fly me to the moon (but i tend to listen to this one at .75 speed)

& albums:
∙ troye sivan - blue neighborhood (if u want to watch the blue neighborhood trilogy as well, the storyline is also really lovely!)
∙ troye sivan - bloom
∙ baekhyun - city lights
spiderman: into the spiderverse soundtrack
