Awesome bands that only you have ever heard of.

Muse. Oh wait, all these wannabe American fans learned about them, and now they suck.

I swear I was the first Yankee who knew about them.

And maybe Primus. I am sure a bunch of people knew about them, but they kinda died out a while back, so this younger generation might not.

*La'Cryma Cristi.

[NIHILHATE]

Tiamat, a hundred fucking times over, Tiamat. Plus Paradise Lost, Amorphis, Dope, Cult of Luna, Katatonia, Jex Thoth, Nefilim and Hed P.E.

 

[BearCavalry9496]

Mirrorthrone. Its a one-man-band but he's really good. He sings,plays guitar/bass,and handles the drum programming.

People haven't heard of it because not many people listen to avant garde or black metal.

 

[Anticitizen_Two]

Red Hot chili pepers

Joke...?

Flock of Seagulls: none o my friends remember them
The Beat Farmers: the only country band I can stand

 

[shale1157]

[blankedboy]

The Love Language
Beach House
Bat For Lashes
Justice
Mars Volta
MSTRKRFT
Spiritualized
TV on the Radio

all good bands that aren't too well known.

TV on the Radio = bullshit.

On-topic, Crossfade, the Cranberries, Herbie Hancock, and Pink Floyd.

Where I'm from, no one has heard of them...+1 for trolling youtube!

 

[Tallim]

Nobody else I know has heard of Machinae Supremacy for some reason ... It's probably pretty popular in some other places though. But I wouldn't know.

Loads of people I know listen to them quite a bit. Namely because Emily Bouff had a link to their site on her site. Then of course there is the whole Jets N' Guns thing.

 

[Layz92]

That 1 Guy. Great one man band, amazing even. Other than that the Poxy Boggards maybe.

Spoiler: for the sake of being compact

if you prefer studio recorded stuff.

to get an idea of the other styles of music he plays

 

[Arisato-kun]

Streetlight Manifesto. I love that band so much but no one I know seems to have ever heard of them untill I make them listen to them in my car all the time.

This. It upsets me that so few people I've met know who Streetlight is or even know what ska is for that matter.

I shall also mention the awesome band that is Big D and the Kids Table.

 

[Cyd0n1a]

The first that comes to my mind is Bullets In Madison. Anybody heard of them before?

 

[Wayneguard]

Municipal Waste is the best.


their video has nuclear waste face melt... they're fucking insane live too. I got a whole case of beer sprayed all over me

"The Occasional Tart"

Company in Cornwall that make rather nice cakes.

[edit] BANDS! Gah, thought you said Brands.

Erm... ..The Faint are reasonably well known I guess, Underworld and Garbage the same... ..Buggery.

 

[Shru1kan]

MSI are pretty well known..

Mine,

Rancid.
The king blues.
Deathcab for cutie.
George Calil.
less than jake.


And they're pretty popular!

I have met one person, ever, who has heard of MSI before.

I hear their name brought up by a lot of people, even in the media for a pseudo-pop culture reference. It's pretty well known...
