Pretty much every Greta Van Fleet song sounds straight out of a fantasy book. Same with Florence and the Machine

Library Card (I can’t remember by who) and her other songs are literally all book related. And Miss Rhode Island (again I’m bad with names) and her other songs. One called young love and old money is based on Great Gasby

Into The Woods by Stephen Sondheim. Tbh the whole album sounds like book especially since the story is based on fairytales.

Ballads are just like fantasy books to me if you’re willing to get into folk music! Some particularly story-driven ones are: Lord Levett, Matty Groves, Tam Lin, King Henry, Lady Isabel and the Elf Knight, the Grey Silkie of Sule Skerry, Willie’s Lady, and Thomas the Rhymer

the amazing devil has a ton of songs that have great fantasy/ dark fantasy vibes (and one of the lead singers is jaskier in the witcher show)

because they’re folk there’s like ten million variants and recordings, but a nice album with some of these is Child Ballads by Anaïs Mitchell and Jefferson Hamer
