The most under-rated band
 

Ok, mine is Thought Industry. I don't know anyone other than myself who gives a shit about these guys. I only know one guy on the internet, even. I picked up their album "Songs for Insects" because it was in a $2 bin and it was produced by Dave Rave of Skinny Puppy fame. I popped it in my cd player and within 5 minutes it had achieved "Must listen at least once a month" status. Now, I'm not saying they are the best band ever to exist, but they are definately good enough for everybody to know their name.

For a taste, check out Daughter Mobius on their myspace site.

Anyone else got one?

I only listen to what Oprah tells me.

Gertie Fox

Nirvana.

Come

Weird War

sorry rob the thread was most under rated not over rated

yeah, it's called irony?

Bluebottle Kiss.

Hey I really like Gertie Fox and Bluebottle Kiss, and would buy their albums in a second. Blue Bottle Kiss sounds so much like sonic youth, in a good way.

Weird War, I dunno, I like it alright. Still on the fence.

Terence trent d'arby's out of my juristiction.

I couldn't find Come, but would definately like to hear some for the foetus connection.

You get repped my friend for liking Bluebottle Kiss.

Come

http://www.matadorrecords.com/come/

they have sevral records all good.

prior to come was uzi (one ep sleep asylum and the other band live skull)

! Oh ha ha I looked up Come on wikipedia and it listed a US new york band from decades ago and a UK rock band from the 90s so of course I assumed the previous one, which is why my post references foetus. Wicked, thanks for the link. I can't get the real audio to work but I am listening to thalia zadek's solo and I think it's quality for sure. I'll add come to my list of shit to look for in snobby record stores.

Liars or Gang Gang Dance

Live Skull, definitely.

NEPTUNE

McLusky. I'm the only person I know that listens to this band. They were so fucking amazing.



Also, Mission of Burma never got their due.

^ I like it. Sounds kinda like Seasick to me:

I don't like the idea of a 'most underrated', but I think that Datblygu are overlooked far too often. Schnittke doesn't get the kudos he deserves, mainly because he doesn't sit comfortably in the general notions of 20th century 'classical' music. I'm in love with the Bragod CD I got, a few tracks of which I upped in the world music thread. On the Japanese front, in a world of wrongly over-looked peeps, Kazuo Imai and Shuji Inaba (the latter being a PSF artist, the former a student of Masayuki Takayanagi) don't get mentioned enough, even by people who're into that sort of thing.

I might come back here with a list of un-signed bands for the collective interest, but then again I might not.

HA!!!!!!

Mine is Meat Puppets
