I hadn't heard of this band prior to letting YouTube auto-play a few random tracks on a discovery session. Apologies if they are well known and I'm just ignorant to them.
If anyone has more recommendations, I'd love to hear them!

Comment on Let's discuss politics in ~talk
In addition to the above, I found myself learning a lot better once I understood the key learning methods, and which style of learning worked for me.
I'm predominantly a mix of Visual/Kinesthetic, which meant that attending lectures was super boring and ineffective for my learning. I had much more success with reading, then following it up with an activity. For mathematics, physically writing on paper was great for solidifying concepts. For computer science, actually typing each character rather than copy pasting code helped me grasp new techniques faster. I also found it easier to grasp abstract concepts when I had a real world scenario to link the concept with.
There are so many great resources online these days. As mentioned elsewhere, Khan academy, free MIT courses, and even YouTube, all have really interesting material.
