AHMS is like "flipping through the channels" (you sound not too young to get that reference) and coming across Groundhog Day, The Blues Brothers or Buckaroo Banzai, etc. I couldn't not listen to the whole thing. Top YT comment: "I can’t believe I just stared at a cow for 23 minutes." :D
Ahhh. Never got a good look at TH's face in the official vids, and I swear I read some comments on his personal channel calling those "covers." You spoke facts; I'm just tired.
Though I didn't know AA was also a comedian, it makes total sense, as the "goes metal" and other video creations show a great sense of humor. (Zappa had a live album called Does Humor Belong in Music?)
Though I love a wide range of "classical" music, including solo/concerto compositions for the (acoustic) guitar/lute, the electric guitar isn't my first choice of instruments for it, but each one impressed me more and more. And you saved the best for last! Great pipes on that singer. God, I'd love to see his band in a smaller venue. I searched for "U.S. tour dates" and got no hits, but he's still young, and one can always hope.
Speaking of smaller venues, another rando rec.: Deerhoof. Seen them a bunch of times in intimate rooms. Super-nice people. Greg the drummer calls me by my last name which I love, but mostly only my old friends do so. Short, angular, catchy, quirky, but awesome songs, imo.
