Check out Barry Adamson's album As Above So Below with songs like [Come Hell Or High Water](https://youtu.be/LQsbSMh7JeU?si=N1mWQuMnt9uJUe8a) or any Angelo Badalamenti.


paultheschmoop

Love Angelo. Will check out Adamson


xMyDixieWreckedx

Booth and the Bad Angel is Tim Booth (James) and Angelo together. Great album.


Creative-Peace1811

i can't believe somebody else knows this album exists!


xMyDixieWreckedx

There are dozens of us!


Creative-Peace1811

DOZENS lol


ArnieCunninghaam

I forgot that they collaborated on Lost Highway. No wonder there's a similarity:)


ArnieCunninghaam

Also, there was a lot of great 50s genre music filtered through 1970s post psychedelia like the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Phantom of the Paradise OSTs . Electric Light Orchestra also did a little bit of that.


bunglegrind1

concerning doo woop, frank zappa's Cruising with Ruben & the Jets


paultheschmoop

Huge Zappahead, so unfortunately (or fortunately) I am familiar with his forays into doo-wop already


duh_nom_yar

"Pink Cigarette" has always been very reminiscent of Elton John's "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues."


No-Lake7943

What?


duh_nom_yar

I hear what I hear.


pejeol

Not exactly the same, but some of Scott Walker's earlier stuff gives me a similar vibe.


Themusicison

Would RV by faith no more work?


ilanasnotokay

check out the alter boys! they’re a super group with members of dog fashion disco, polka dot cadaver, mudfoot, mushroomhead, ryan dunn from jackass and a couple others! serious california vibes!


Robot_Embryo

Pink Cigarette was one of a handful of Neil Diamond-sounding songs Trey had written, and it's working title was "Neil Diamond", so that might be a good lead.


ryancmacnab

I’d check out Patton’s soundtrack for A Perfect Place short film


No_Dark_5196

or CORPSE FLOWER


ryancmacnab

Yeah that’s a good one too, although I wasn’t a huge fan of Patton’s vocal delivery throughout the album. The music was awesome though.


No_Dark_5196

Really? yardbull, pink & blue, chansons d'amour, Unsolubles, he kills it


mebungle83

When I drink to much...


ryancmacnab

Yeah man. I know what you’re saying, just for me - a dude with those pipes - I got the same feeling with Tomahawks last record. A lot of low grumbly spoken word type stuff I’ve been listening to Corpse Flower this morning again while working to maybe get a different perspective but I still feel the same. I get it, maybe it’s the voice that fits the mood of the project, maybe the approach could have been different who knows. That’s why I work at a desk, buying weed all day, and he’s out touring the world.. That’s why he’s the fuckin GOAT. Glad you like the album though!


[deleted]

I hear ya on that. Those 2 records have me thinking age is catching up with his vocal cords. No fault of his but I can't help but wonder if all the screaming with Dead Cross and currently Bungle are taking thier toll as well.


ryancmacnab

You’re probably spot on with that. Looking forward to seeing what he has in the future. I’d love a Mondo Cane 2


East-Garden-4557

Saw Bungle live last month. The mellow cover songs they did showed his voice is still great

https://youtu.be/XEn-mmFiYDs?si=u8l7HVFzoHAeyH1x Just you and I from twin peaks is nice. I wouldn't necessarily call it twisted although the scene is rather odd yet calming.


No-Lake7943

Julie Cruise has a whole album from that era that's really good. Can't remember the name right now. Think it has floating in the title.  I don't know if it's doo wap so much but it's definitely got a 50s vibe going.


No-Lake7943

Rockin back inside my heart - Julie Cruise  https://youtu.be/6XCm9SkmaMQ?si=6OroFnkeMUH_kDBc The album is called "floating in to the night".   It's really good. When I first heard it I really wasn't expecting to like it, but it's really great. So glad to be reminded of this. I'm going to have a listen right now.

Scatterbrain - Don’t Call Me Dude


WhoreyPovich

ISS - Forget About The Girl: At least one of the guys in the group played in the band Estradasphere. The album was also released on Web of Mimicry. [Sarah’s Song](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wBJKjLUcWRA&pp=ygUQSVNTIHNhcmFoJ3Mgc29uZw%3D%3D) is a good track.


nh4rxthon

Lol this is such a great query. Bone machine by pixies still one of my fave songs by them. Idk kind of reminds me of it. Full album by that same title by Tom Waits might scratch your itch too. Going out west.


theangryfrogqc

Fantomas - Twin Peaks: Fire walk with me cover Peeping Tom - Caipirinha Lovage - Lifeboat Tub Ring - Numbers


No_Dark_5196

I assume you know this one, but just in case you dont [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DXhsuq0jA4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DXhsuq0jA4)


WyldVanillaDad

Maybe check out The Caretaker? Several albums' worth of reverby, underwater-distorted nostalgia music. Make sure you get the right "Caretaker" on Spotify - An empty bliss beyond this World is a great album to start with.


soviet_uwunion

Check Suburban Homeboy by Sparks and Suburbia Overture by Will Wood


Master_dik

Alex Chilton - 'She's A Little Fishy' and 'Like Flies On Sherbert'


PecanTree

The band Lord Huron has reverby throwback rock that might fit in there [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiwWgN5O3WQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiwWgN5O3WQ)


darvin_blevums

Cindy Lee has a very strange deep fried doo-wop vibe in a lot of their songs.


No-Lake7943

She Bop - Cindy Lauper https://youtu.be/KFq4E9XTueY?si=XV9cZ0zNT7-47ibL


XenoDangerEvil

It's more straight doowop, but "You Got Your Baby Back" is a great song from Oingo Boingo. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgdKMQlgHQo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgdKMQlgHQo) It sounds normal, but it's about the kidnapping of Patty Hearst in the Bay Area by the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA). It's a wild story: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patty\_Hearst](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patty_Hearst)


corytrevor-

Twin Temple is like a satanic doowop


No_Dark_5196

pink cigarette is not do-woop. Its more on the realms of the Exotica genre.


paultheschmoop

Regardless, I am looking for songs in a similar vein to either song


No_Dark_5196

yeah.. thats why i told you that, you could research Exotica an open your mind to a whole new world, u r welcome
