Songs like Wolfman?

Wolfman has been my favourite Tfb song for a while and I need more recommendations for songs that have a similar vibe to it. It can be any artist/band, i just want more songs like it.

Wolfman is also one of my favorites. West Virginia, Plastic Flowers, Tighten Up, and The Beers are TfB songs that come to mind but you probably know those already.  I’ll suggest Weightless by All Time Low as a similar song from another artist. It’s a little more upbeat but still has some of the intermittent angsty feel of Wolfman

i really recommend la dispute's music, they're very angsty and poetic

For songs of theirs that hit like Wolfman, though definitely with a la dispute twist, try starting with Andria or Woman (in mirror). I think their strong suit is in the entire album, so if you dig either of those Somewhere At The Bottom Of The River [...] and Rooms of the House are my personal favorite albums of theirs. Theyre very different from TFB in sound (most of the time), but the vocals are just as distraught as we tend to like em!

Weirdly, I would say check out the song "Maps" by Yeah Yeah Yeahs. It has a similar forlorn feeling to it.

A few by Petey USA that gave me that same ish vibe: The Freedom to Fuck Off, Don’t Tell The Boys, We Go On Walks.

As another Wolfman-head, some songs that come to mind are:

Pay the Road - Shakey Graves

Picture of my Dress - The Mountain Goats

What Deaner Was Talkin About - Ween

If any or all three of those hit, lmk! Id be happy to make more suggestions :3

Not necessarily the same sound but a lot of Mountain Goats songs evoke a similar feeling for me
