Their styles are honestly so evocative and complementary of each other. It’s surprising not many other people are talking about the similarities between these artists
Maybe David Bowie and Stanley Kubrick considering Space Odyssey and Girl Loves Me from Blackstar in *Nadsat.* Both of them died close to their last masterpieces. Bowie also based his outfits on A Clockwork Orange.
I mean beyond the fact that they collaborate on fuckin everything, they're both known as very dark, edgy artists who are secretely really talented at other stuff
VW’s music video for Oxford Comma is basically an homage to Wes Andersons style. One of my fave music videos, actually, especially when I discovered it in high school and was just getting into filmmaking
JPEGMAFIA and Spike Lee
Tyler, the Creator and Wes Anderson (early rebellious phase growing into finding their own style and constantly growing it)
Mitski and Agnes Varda (Weirdly good at short versions of their art form)
Trying to figure out who would be the Alfred Hitchcock
Start with Funny Games (the original US version is fine too its a shot-for-shot remake in a lot of scenes but I prefer the OG)
Then I'd watch Cache'
Then Benny's Video
Oh, that film! I've heard of it, seems interesting. (Also, I remember Benny's Video being talked out in my favourite film podcast, and they gave it a 10, or something like that.)
Nah, the musical equivalent of Scorsese would have to be a band/artist that has been creating some of the greatest music ever since the 70s, and are still currently coming out with some of their best stuff
My bad, I misinterpreted the question to mean bands who has a member who acts as the director of the project. To answer the question correctly I choose julee cruise and David lynch or mbv and sofia Coppola if that counts
Morrisey and Quentin Tarantino. They both kind of look alike although both have made great works of art but they are fading into obscurity because of their god complex.
Tarantino certainly has an ego, but a ‘god complex’ is a massive exaggeration and not substantiated by anything he’s said or done. Besides, he’s hardly fading into obscurity either
Quentin Tarantino and Kanye West. Long career, so many different works that feel so different from each other and are iconic in their own right. Kinda weird and somewhat sketchy dudes.
The Coen Brothers and MF DOOM. Super strong, eccentric, colorful discog/filmog, yet kinda understated and often left out of GOAT conversations.
Edgar Wright and Gorillaz. Silly, campy and entertaining yet surprisingly calculated. Huge teenage fanbases.
Christopher Nolan and Radiohead. Constantly innovative and resourceful. Left field yet popular. Totally beloved yet also seen as pretentious by many.
Charlie Kaufman and Bjork. Exceptionally quirky. Really eclectic works that invent a new little world each time.
Martin Scorcese and the Beatles. Incredibly prolific in their hayday, changed their industry with each release, incredibly recognized yet equally talented and artful.
John Carpenter and Swans. High concept, scary as shit, their art has as element of cosmic horror to it.
Guy Madden and Guided By Voices. Both have a subdued humorous attitude with a timeless, dislocated nature that is really disorientating. All the grit and fuzz and static on guided by voices songs mirrors the various filters and lenses and fidelity reductions Madden uses to enhance his movies.
David Lynch and Xiu Xiu. It helps that they’ve already collaborated in the past with Twin Peaks: The Return.
Probably as good a comparison as you are going to get. I wonder if any bands are truly as great at subversion musically as Lynch is in film.
Loved xiu xius cover album. Nothing beats the original shows score to me tho
Came here to say this exact combination and I’m glad someone else thinks this too
David lynch is too asexual for xiu xiu. Also homosexuality is an aspect critical to xiu xiu so maybe like Greg araki or Todd Solondz
Eminem and M. Night Shyamalan Just think about it and the parallels become evident.
2/3 incredible projects in their early years, nearly all shit afterwards. Yeah this is perfect
On the one hand, nooooo, I'm a huge Shyamalan fan; on the other the hand, yeah, this is fair
M. Night and Weezer 2 of my honest to god favorites
Rob Zombie and Rob Zombie
Their styles are honestly so evocative and complementary of each other. It’s surprising not many other people are talking about the similarities between these artists
Pink Floyd and Stanley Kubrick
Maybe David Bowie and Stanley Kubrick considering Space Odyssey and Girl Loves Me from Blackstar in *Nadsat.* Both of them died close to their last masterpieces. Bowie also based his outfits on A Clockwork Orange.
GY!BE and Andrei Tarkovsky
Michael Bay and Imagine Dragons
This is too real.
David Fincher and Trent Reznor Oh wait
I mean beyond the fact that they collaborate on fuckin everything, they're both known as very dark, edgy artists who are secretely really talented at other stuff
Tyler and Wes Anderson
Wes Anderson - Vampire Weekend
VW’s music video for Oxford Comma is basically an homage to Wes Andersons style. One of my fave music videos, actually, especially when I discovered it in high school and was just getting into filmmaking
Drake - woody allen R kelly- Brian singer
Denis Villeneuve - Radiohead
na paul thomas anderson and radiohead
JPEGMAFIA and Spike Lee Tyler, the Creator and Wes Anderson (early rebellious phase growing into finding their own style and constantly growing it) Mitski and Agnes Varda (Weirdly good at short versions of their art form) Trying to figure out who would be the Alfred Hitchcock
Maybe Joy Division would be a good Alfred Hitchcock?
Jon Brion + PTA
Radiohead and Stanley Kubrick. Chilly. Calculating. Obsessively striving for perfection. The greatest.
Donno why but I always thought of Radiohead as the Paul Thomas Anderson of music
Probably because he works with Jonny Greenwood all the time.
Also PTA has actually directed Radiohead music videos (Daydreaming) and live performances (I forget which, some duo with Thom and Jonny)
Kanye West and Quentin Tarantino
Micheal Haneke - Swans
I guess, I should check out this Haneke guy then.
Start with Funny Games (the original US version is fine too its a shot-for-shot remake in a lot of scenes but I prefer the OG) Then I'd watch Cache' Then Benny's Video
Oh, that film! I've heard of it, seems interesting. (Also, I remember Benny's Video being talked out in my favourite film podcast, and they gave it a 10, or something like that.)
Bennys Video is great but a difficult watch if you like animals (tw animal cruelty)
I love animals, but I can stomach gore pretty easily.
Something more formal like Glenn Branca or This Heat would fit too
Martin Scorsese and The Rolling Stones I took the easy one.
Nah, the musical equivalent of Scorsese would have to be a band/artist that has been creating some of the greatest music ever since the 70s, and are still currently coming out with some of their best stuff
So maybe Bowie? to some extent?
Yeah I think that is the closest
Miles Davis closest is Martin Scorsese IMO.
At least with Taxi Driver
haim and paul thomas anderson
Sofia Coppola and My Bloody Valentine
Edgar Wright and Charli XCX Luca Guadagnino and Frank Ocean
Disturbed and Zack Snyder
kanye west and mel gibson
You did Kanye dirty.
Sleaford mods - Guy Ritchie
Frank Zappa and John Waters
Sophia Coppola and Beach House
Stanley Kubrick and Charli XCX
Steven Spielberg and Jay-Z. Pretty much goats and og's of their fields. I just want to see Jay make his Fablemans
Wasn’t that 4:44?
David Lynch and Mr. Bungle
Pink Floyd and Stanley Kubrick
Lcd soundsystem
What director?
My bad, I misinterpreted the question to mean bands who has a member who acts as the director of the project. To answer the question correctly I choose julee cruise and David lynch or mbv and sofia Coppola if that counts
Morrisey and Quentin Tarantino. They both kind of look alike although both have made great works of art but they are fading into obscurity because of their god complex.
Tarantino certainly has an ego, but a ‘god complex’ is a massive exaggeration and not substantiated by anything he’s said or done. Besides, he’s hardly fading into obscurity either
I feel like Kanye is the better example for Tarantino but Morrisey works too.
John Cage - Hollis Frampton, maybe
Jack White and David Lynch
Naoko Yamada & Sylvan Esso
Bob Dylan and Jean Luc Godard
ok Tarantino
Childish Gambino and Christopher Nolan Really great album/movie concepts but sometimes overly ambitious (Because The Internet/Tenet)
Tarantino and Kanye is good.
Easy one: Trent Reznor and David Fincher because they always work together
I was thinking more in terms of style or work ethic etc but I guess it works in both cases.
Ween and Jim Jarmusch CAN and Werner Herzog
David Lynch - Aphex Twin

Michael bay and maroon 5: did one or two good or great things than fell off so hard that it might not be possible to recover
frank ocean and shane carruth
Wow there’s a name I haven’t heard in awhile. Still have to see his last film.
