Best Bands You Never Heard Of

[Bornindamecca]

This thread is for those bands that you think are fantastic that people aren't aware of. Opeth is getting kind of popular, so I submit to you: Animals As Leaders.

97% of you will not like this, but the 3% that do will love it to death. Feel free to submit your own obscure but awesome bands.

Emery is semi-popular. None of my friends or anyone I know have ever heard of them though, but they have a national and international tour.

Re: Best Bands You Never Heard Of

I'm not exactly sure how many people listen to The Matches. They aren't exactly a small time band, but they aren't all that famous either. Anyways:

Re: Best Bands You Never Heard Of

Yeah me too. That into the mirror song is awesome, real mellow laid back stuff. I'm usually a rap/hip hop guy but i love a bit of just about every genre.

John Butler Trio is awesome! I have one of their live performances favourited on youtube, the song name escapes me at the moment.

I'll definitely be posting in this later, at work at the moment.

That 2nd April Smith song was catchy as hell. Very good lyricist.
