ITT you post the most obscure band you can think of and see if anyone recognizes it.

[Rad_Brad]

Torsofuck
Anal ****
Die Apokalyptischen Reiter
Takeharu Ishimoto
Mercury Rev
The Brian Jonestown Massacre
SANATORIUM...

 

[That_Which_Isnt]

Torsofuck

Definitely not obscure.

 

[Rad_Brad]

I have heard Cock and Ball Torture before. ;D

 

[Zombie_Fish]

Fleet Foxes
TV On The Radio

I know both of those. Thank God for Later... With Jools Holland.

My turn:
The Raah
Diversion
Wonderkind
The Screaming Gypsies

The Demon Barbers
Sabrepulse
Leadbelly
Thelonious Monk
The Spooky Men's Chorale
Bellowhead

Out of all of those, there's a chance someone here will know at least one of them, as I have talked about that group on these forums before.

My head would literally explode if anybody here had heard of this band.

[pantsoffdanceoff]

Lotus Juice
The Pillows
Hammerfall (This surprises me as I would think they're well known but no one I have talked to has heard of them)

That's about as obscure as I go, there aren't any record stores withing a 15 mile radius of our town so I'm pretty much stuck with what Amazon online/MP3 Ninja can give me.

Black Tide

Decently sure that's not obscure at all considering there was a five page article on them in GuitarONE magazine.

 

[DannyBoy451]

Fleet Foxes
TV On The Radio

I know both of those. Thank God for Later... With Jools Holland.

My turn:
The Raah

Definitely well known

I certainly thought so but when I talk to people at school, no one has heard of them.

 

[pantallica95]

Probably Times New Viking, they're fairly obscure unless you're into low-fi indie.

Also: I'd wager nobody here has ever heard of Crass.

Then you sir, would be wrong! White Punks on Dope!

OT: Flux of Pink Indians?

 

[Scratcher]

The problem with really obscure bands is they are either people that only play gigs locally therefore no one else knows them... or they're obscure cos they're crap and no one wants to tell anyone else about them...

Also: I'd wager nobody here has ever heard of Crass.

I'll take your money, not least cos they put records out on the same label as the cure and bauhaus...

Here's a few for ya,

Glitch;
V/Vm
Lesser

Hip Hop (kinda);
Slotek
Restiform Bodies
Hundred Strong
Spectre

Electronic stuff (techno/D'n'B/etc.);
Elastic Horizions
Blasphenaut
Doormouse
Hanayo
