The former band is broken up and it genuinely saddens me so much, they were such a gifted band.

Oh, hey, no mention of Diablo Swing Orchestra.

That should stroke my ego. I'm off to go light a smoke with a $100 in front of a homeless guy.

Huh, didn't think Spineshank could be called hipster, they're played on the music channels over here in the U.K. Hm.

Anyway!
Er...Renfue. Sound exactly like Paramore used to before they got all...popular. Damn, now I do sound like a hipster.
Oh, and The Legion of Doom are awesome too, they do mashups of pretty good music.

Also a massive Amanda Palmer fan, who isn't exactly unknown but...I never see anyone ever mention her anywhere. Especially not her Evelyn Evelyn act.

It might just be that nobody I know listens to Ska, but I haven't met anybody else who listens to the following.





The last one isn't Ska, but nobody I know listens to them either.

You forgot ArtAttack and JackleApp


Didn't like "Still Shy" the first time I heard it, I have now changed my mind. And I had completely forgotten "I Love Everything". They've both been added.

For the rest, meh... But I know there is one JackleApp song I forgot... brb!

And to top it off with some Spineshank!
I've been listening to them for... hell... 6-7 years maybe? Plus the whole "hipster" part of the thread bothers me. Most the bands I listen to are "undiscovered", but I listen to them because I like the music, not because nobody has heard of them (like a hipster would).

Anyway... some bands I like that most people haven't heard of: I.R.A.T.E., Refused, Authority Zero, Thought Riot, Slaves on Dope, Spit, Strength in Numbers, Strike Anywhere, Within the Ruins, Xerath, and I could probably go on with half the bands I have in itunes...

I haz music!
I've heard of Pyramaze and Brocas Helm before and yes quite epic
Bone Carver's story is amazing especially near the end

my music is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzfTXNzEds8 French doom metal
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQvgyaROBRY some kind of Prog

I'm not too sure how popular Pain Of Salvation is here, but everyone I talk to has never heard of them

Oh lordy lordy lordy let's let 'er rip.

Buried at Sea. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wf0zDNzPmHc] Funeral doom. Nothing too outstanding, but pretty good stuff.

Bull of Heaven. [http://www.bullofheaven.com] Noise "music" group, though half of their stuff isn't really music in any typical sense. Moreso just a mish-mash of sounds, tones, and so on. Some of their stuff is actual music in a more traditional sense, but you have to look for it. BUT THE BEST PART, ALL THEIR STUFF IS FREE.

Boris. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ld0jEcFUFko] Maybe the best-known band on this list, because they're pretty big in the oddly "is a thing" overlap between sludge, doom, drone, and metal fans. Their stuff is epic beyond words.

The Gersch. Can't find any YouTube videos of their stuff so no link, sorry. They only put out one record and never got much popularity, but they were doing some early sludge in the mid-90s. As well as a handful of other genres in some big pretty neat fusion thingy.

Greg(o)rian [http://gregoriandoom.bandcamp.com/] (Bandcamp link, can't find them on YouTube). Doom band with some pretty awesome stuff, and it be free.

Sabazius. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVb8J_42H5I] Atmospheric ambient drone-doom or whatever the hell it is. It is what it is, and it is quite amazing. If you like Sunn O))) or the like, you'll probably get a big kick out of these guys. Like a lot of bands here, their stuff is free.

Sorne. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNwO-L9d0TA] Not a metal group. They just started up earlier this year, if I recall. I saw them live in Houston a few weeks ago and their show blew my mind. It was absolutely incredible. I'd recommend them to basically everyone with somewhat eclectic tastes.

Algol. [http://nulll-void.com/nulll/releases/037.htm] Space-ambient and, surprise, free. Almost totally unknown as far as I know.

Any of Stijn van Cauter's projects. [http://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Stijn_van_Cauter/29445] Most of their stuff is free and available through the label that I linked to for Algol up there. A lot of it is pretty extreme funeral doom, but with a heavy drone and ambient touch and a semi-noise touch.

Faal. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKfMSDC9JD4] I actually don't know what their popularity status is, so I'm gonna risk it and post a link to them anyways. They're a doomy band.

Ea. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IScOIXxszDo] Basically, they're Skepticism, but Russian. Doom metal but with a strangely beautiful sound to it in most cases.

Mars Red Sky. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6L1pmdvmSWc] French metal band, pretty awesome song that I linked to (or so I think).

Chuter. [http://www.last.fm/music/Chuter] Shoegaze/experimental project from some British dude.

Jared Konkle. [http://www.youtube.com/user/Jedwink] Basically just a dude in his house with a guitar and a mic. He does a lot of covers on his YouTube channel, but he does some original songs too which are great. He does a kinda country/folky sound. Pretty great stuff. Oh, and he has an album for free via Facebook of original material.

That's all I got for now.

There is one band I never see mentioned here, and it both surprises and saddens me that they still don't seem to be well known, even after having one of their songs in a Left 4 Dead 2 commercial.

I'm talking about an awesome band called Clutch.

I never really considered them undiscovered but I am always shocked by how few people know of Skillet. Possibly my favorite band, definitely in the top five.

I feel like a broken record when I always post Homestuck music in these threads.
I know what you mean. Music thread pops up, and I break out I Fight Dragons without fail.
