Mothman | Cryptidcore Playlist

Aesthetic Info: Cryptidcore is traditionally associated with cryptozoology, or the study of creatures from urban legends and folklore, and the glorification and idolization of cryptids, conspiracies, and all-around mystery. Cryptidcore is also, generally vintage, and takes visual inspiration, especially with regards to fashion, from the 1970s - 90s.

Slightly off topic, but at this point I'm convinced that Mother Mother just hired a violinist that is high 24/7, told them to "just do their thing" and this is how we got a lot of their songs

it evocatively makes me thing of monsters and nightmares in a forest but they are dancing by moving only their legs on 90s game music with a vintage filter

[@Rustymetalspoon]

this playlist, buzzfeed unsolved: supernatural, and random national parks in the spring, hiking, cheezits, running through the forest from nothing in particular, birds my aesthetic lmao

you ever seen the show gravity falls? If you haven't you need to, I feel you would like it.

[@pinkkim472]

literally thought i was a mix of cottage/fairycore and alternative. found the true middle and i love it

[@astoroidea6502]

Another good middle between cottage/fairy core and alt is goblin/corvid core, it’s a little bit more grungy and very much still with that ethereal cottage/fairy core vibe but it is also quite a nice aesthetic

Is it normal to be like almost literally every.. idk how to spell it, Athststic???? Definitely not, but whatever.. that I come across?- :'D

Cabinet man by Lemon Demon and Turn The Lights Off by Tally Hall make me feel like I want to transcend reality and become THE superior being. Good playlist.

You're on the hunt for cryptids. Not to actually hunt them, of course. You'd just love to be friends.

[@jb6725]

If you think about it and listen in a bit deeper the playlist tells a monster hunting story at first it's excitement and you think it'll just be some fun with friends and that monsters aren't real So everyones camping and getting it all set up and everything is good, people are hanging out and unsurprisingly the cryptid hunting trip gives no results But at night everyone's hearing sounds in the woods inhuman screaming that doesn't sound like foxes or any animal the mood turns cold this joke trip has given them what they wanted but they aren't sticking around to take photos like they thought they're shaking, eyes watering, anxiety spiking they're packing up quickly and getting back in the car And as they're running away they all know damn well they aren't going to be messing around with urban legends and cryptids anymore (this part is told by in the woods somewhere)

[@iwishiwerehycanith]

hi you have fueled my mothman obsession i demand an apology

[@onbekend1631]

why an apology? IT NEEDS MORE FUEL! >:D

[@musicplaylists6718]

I was looking for a playlist to listen to and for some reason when I saw this my brain kinda went "UM??? UM?????" in a very excited way and I started trembling from excitement. I have seen this playlist recommended to me before and have never reacted in this way to. anything? ever? Not sure how to feel about this. Nice playlist though.

[@musicplaylists6718]

Also I am slightly bothered Cabinet Man is in here but Eighth Wonder isn't (you know, the song about Gef the mongoose, an actual cryptid?)

[@aleccheckmate2283]

@@musicplaylists6718 I guess they didn’t want to be too on the nose, plus a haunted arcade machine does feel very cryptidcore

All the songs are very yes yes

[@quillmorningstar8713]

​@@aleccheckmate2283 The closest thing I can think of that is sort of a 'haunted arcade machine' irl is the urban legend, polybius.

[@GHOST_boi25]

Also can't you just imagine an arcade machine that looks all eldritch horror with eyeballs and tentacles coming out of the screen!!! Eighth wonder is an awesome song too tho!! I have a few playlists I rotate through that are all cryptidcore and tbh eighth wonder feels like it goes on repeat sometimes with those so this is nice!!!

Can't believe Cavetown thinks antisemitism is a joke.

He doesn’t though? The antisemitic jokes were made when he was 14 (he’s 24 now) and had Jewish friends so he didn’t realize it wasn’t okay to make them. Plus he’s apologized since then and tried to better himself because of it.

[@kittencomicslol]

Hey, I’m all for enjoying this but please don’t turn it into a trend or act like you know things about cryptids like people who actually have studied them for years and years have (like me) Yes they are cool but they can be very dangerous. Romanticizing them unless they are clearly good cryptids is bad and I hate misinformation spread. Turning a extremely serious topic, study, and job, into a quirky little trend is extremely disrespectful to us who really study this :((
