Mitski's Horse Named Cold Air

Looking for songs like Mitski's Horse Named Cold Air.

I don't have the musical background to even know what it is about this song...but it evokes such stark, haunting, wind-swept emotion that I'd like to find others. The closest so far is Beck's Wave. Bon Iver's Holocene and Yaz's Winter Kills come close, but don't feel quite right.

Best answer: Perfume Genius, maybe?

Best answer: Sorry if this is too obvious, but maybe Hello Earth by Kate Bush?

Best answer: Some of the chords and the vibe aren't all that far from Pyramid Song.

Response by poster: These are all great answers so far, with Twinkle and Pyramid Song closest to the elusive quality I'm looking for.
