There are some really nice music players out there but most of them work in this kind of tree way where they show you a small image of the album, and below all of the songs, or worst, directly show you all of the songs. I generally browse by looking at album covers and there I decide what to listen, so being able to look at the covers is something I really need. So far I’ve been using Elisa, which is the one who works the best for me, but then it got bugged so I switched to Lollypop, but I don’t like the GUI as much since it is a bit messy.

Basically, something more like this:

However, even the older version has all the features I need and an awesome UI/UX!

I would recommend Sayonara Player for Linux. It’s not as awesome as Dopamine, but I still love it. I couldn’t find anything better for Linux!
