Bands You Like But No-one You Know Has Heard Of Them?

Recommended Posts

Pink Strip, formal Warning :rolleyes:

are they back together? They has split up last I knew (admittedly that was like 1-2 years ago). Does Chris still play guitars? He works at Intasound, really nice chap.

Their music is wicked too, I have a couple of sampler CDs with about 3 tracks on each.

Long title I know.

My music collection is pretty diverse, but there aren't many 'mainstream' bands but that said I do like a lot of bands that are very popular, springsteen, pearl jam, the jam, neil young, smiths etc etc..

But there are bands I love that my friends have never heard of like:-

10,000 MANIACS - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSbGxc4_JXA

DOGS -

THE PADDINGTONS -

THE RIFLES -

THE UPPER ROOM -

blood red shoes -

black lips -

Harrisons -

Maybe my friends just aren't very musically aware.

What about you?s around

p.s. Anyone on here like any of the above bands, if you've never heard of them please check them out?

10,000 maniacs one of the most underated us bands of 80s and 90s with one of the best lead female singers around. meaningful lyrics. Robert Buck great musician too. Several bootlegs if your interested?

Agreed, Natalie Merchant's got an amazing voice. She gets a bit too 'folky' at times for my personal taste, but you can't knock her vocal ability. :thumbup:

I guess it's time to contribute to the "How Cool Are You?" thread :teehee:

I listened to a lot of groups that get labeled as "noise" or "noise-pop" (now, that's a creative tag for a subgenre :rolleyes:) over the past few months. My favorite groups that are going with this sound are:

-Intelligence

-Japanther

-Cheveu

-Tyvek

-Coachwhips

-No Age

I only discovered the crazy sounds of Old Time Relijun last week, but I love it.

Leo sayer

never heard of any of these, but i have to say that list comprises some of, no, actually, the worst band names i have ever heard, except for 'black kids' and leo sayer, but, quite frankly, i think he is rather well known

Agreed some of them are quite bad names.

Go listen to Joe Lean and The Jing Jang Jong - you might like them cos they sound a bit like the beach boys in some songs, not as much as the Little Ones do mind.
