Is there any good give-it-away clues for this when they randomly pop up in the que?

Usually the vocals sound like old 64kbps mp3s or wax cylinders played in a fish tank.

All of the album covers and photos are AI.

Searching for the artist(s) and finding only single releases starting 2023 and zero live video or tour dates.
