Top 50 Slowcore Songs | RYM Charts

This ranking is not my opinion; it's from RateYourMusic and was chosen by the users of the site. The only subjective part is the personal favourites.
Spotify playlist: open.spotify.c...
Chart retrieved from January 28th, 2025.
The Slowcore genre is not included in either primary or secondary genres due to its placement being redundant, but keep in mind that all of these songs were marked as black metal and other related genres by RYM users. This isn't the case if there are no other primary genres.
According to RYM, Slowcore is a subgenre of Indie Rock that is "characterized by its subdued, often sombre songwriting and slow tempos, while taking primarily from genres like Dream Pop and Folk Rock.". Better known artists of the genre include Low, Carissa's Weird, Red House Painters, Duster, Galaxie 500, among others. rateyourmusic....

[@plastic-wardrobe]

below the salt mentioned omg although i don't think i would call it slowcore, it's more post-rock, but oh well

[@Azure1013]

If you did post-rock and included live songs half of the list would be Swans (and deservedly so)

[@matthews7805]

Long live Clikatat Ikatowi!

[@KommentarSpaltenKrieger]

no codeine, no bedhead, wtf rym

[@KommentarSpaltenKrieger]

you could've added some mixture instead of ripping apart a whole album of carissas wierd and filling half of the rank list with its songs

[@GhostStories5150]

Fr carissas weird is underwhelming imo too so I especially was just like :/

[@frogmafiaofficial]

codeine and bedhead too underappreciated by rym

[@dinginternet5199]

D, Realize and Sea are classic slowcore. Heck even Galaxie 500 isn't here.

[@ofs82]

Codeine definitely the biggest miss, but no Idaho or American Music Club either...

[@Flapjack483]

just wanted to point out that katy song doesn't have shoegaze primary or secondary

[@literallymebasd]

No codeine?? Wtf?
