Help me find more Thumpasaursus!

July 18, 2023 3:06 PM

Looking for music thats like Thumpasuarus- punk, funk, synth, and bonus points for brass insturments. Rubblebucket and the Talking Heads would fit on this playlist. Ska need not apply. Something that I can dance to while I clean the house as a former punk kid who might also want to yell and stomp a bit. I've already listened to Spotify suggested "thumpasaurus radio."

You might like Dumpstaphunk.

And something about Thumpasuarus put me in the mind of Primus...

Maybe you’d like De Lux?

More on the noisy/punky/arty end, you might enjoy The Comet is Coming. (Tiny Desk appearance.)

With horns:
Bowling for Soup - 2113

Voodoo Glow Skulls- Bulletproof

Sports Team - The Drop

Spoon - Jonathan Fisk
Oingo Boingo - Aint This The Life

Fishbone - Party at Ground Zero is this ska? Not really. I skipped the Mighty Mighty Bosstones because they are a bit too ska.

Sam Fender - 17 Going Under

At least as punk as Talking Heads:
Zumpano - Showflakes and Heartaches

Dubstar - Cathedral Park

Not punk, but if you want stomp and horns, you want '90s Aerosmith. They were Steven Tyler at 11, horns at 10, lead guitar at 7 (during solos) and everybody else at a 2, and their songs didn't rock, they stomped.

Aerosmith - The Other Side
