Kosmopolitin by Tsvei Brider. New compositions to Yiddish poems. It’s so great to have new interpretations of traditional tunes- but also new compositions is great.

This is what I’m personally getting, I just recently discovered them. Creative ensemble from Australia.
On their other album they cover “The Boxer” in Yiddish- and it is amazing. Find it!

So starting with something very niche (and probably not for most) Yiddish Black Metal.
He’s relatively new and each new release gets better.

Also on the rocking side of things, although less harsh than Black Metal, I cant recommend Forshpil enough.
Psych/Prog infused covers of traditional tunes by musicians originally from Riga!
