Raub Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I'll throw one out there. If you like no-frills rock and roll, check out: The Hellacopters. They're from Sweden and you'll probably have to order their stuff from Amazon or download it. They are amazing though. Excellent guitar, great vocals, just good old fashioned rock.

Chopper Dave Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Depends on how underground you get. My favorite non-mainstream band right now are the Flaming Lips. The Libertines and Neutral Milk Hotel are two smaller bands that are amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raub Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 I like the Flaming Lips. Not obscure enough. Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots is a great album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 yngwie malmsteen. check out some of his songs. my personal favorite song of his is "rising force", but "riot in the dungeon" gets an honorable mention. he is a spectacular guitarist and a great singer. rising force sample faster than the speed of light sample Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LApunkrocker72 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 If you're a fan of great garage punk, then I suggest you check out the Pandoras, a good 80s underground band who hailed from my hometown of Los Angeles. Although they didn't get as much pub as the Bangles and Go Go's, they were better than both of those groups. The Pandoras produced two great garage punk albums in "It's About Time" (their 1984 debut) and "Stop Pretending" (their 1986 follow-up). "Stop Pretending" is especially essential as it features the classic lineup of Paula Pierce, Kim Shattuck, Melanie Vammen and Karen Blankfeld.

Mufumonk Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 While they aren't exactly unknown, I'd imagine 90% of the people here have never listened to them but they are juggernauts of the scandanavian metal scene. In fact, I prefer them to In Flames. Meshuggah: Straws Pulled at Random Neurotica Rational Gaze(Video) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky enough to see the last show of a tour they did about 3 years ago here in DC. Reggie, Ultimate Fakebook and Kofax (I'm not sure if thats the correct spelling) all at the 9:30 club. I've also seen Get Up Kids there. You can't help but love Reggie ... their stuff is so comical sometimes (Dwarf Invasion). Now I can guarantee you that most of you guys won't like what I'm about to recommend ... but I'm going to tell you anyway. (JRock - you'll appreciate this!!!) It's definitely chick music, but Jolie has the most amazing angelic voice ... The Rocking Horse Winner ... http://www.ohevrecords.com/catalog.html --- scroll down to catch two mp3's.

Soliloquy Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 yngwie malmsteen. check out some of his songs. my personal favorite song of his is "rising force", but "riot in the dungeon" gets an honorable mention. he is a spectacular guitarist and a great singer. Malmsteen does not sing. :laugh: And I'd be surprised to find a guitar fan that hasn't at least heard of Yngwie! I'm fond of "I am a Viking".

MissU28 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Indigenous Womb... they're a hip-hop group out of JMU and most of the group actually lived in the apartment upstairs from me in college! They've opened for Soldiers of Jah Army (another hot ass group), Jah Works, The Roots, 311, etc etc. One of the MCs..Vex Bliss... is totally hot. I used to be at the gym working out and staring at his amazing body....ok sorry. Off subject. But anyway, here's their myspace page so you can take a gander. My favorite song is I've Learned, and it's by the MC Signifier http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=3798755 www.indigenouswomb.com check em out....thoughtful stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Nostril Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Come on! Everyone's heard of Malmsteen And Fugazi? I mean, they're legends. I wouldn't go so far as to say everyone's heard of them, but I would say that if you haven't heard of Fugazi, I don't care to hear your opinions on music.

Soonerz Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 For something a little different, I like Zox or Virginia Coalition. They remind me of Dispatch....to a point. I guess why they are linked in my mind is due to seeing Zox open for Dispatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
