How dare you choose a BEST answer that doesn't include links? Report It

I only listen to Christian music which I'm sure no one here has heard of.

Twiddle. www.twiddlemusic.com

Jon Frederick Band (that's their original name) they are now known as NEW HIP STEREO! They are a Boston based band. Check out their MySpace page ... www.myspace.com/newhipstereo

Wow, no thumbs up... Does Falling You really suck that bad?

Mine is Widespread Panic. If you're not from the south, it's likely you've never heard of them, even though their following is similar to that of Phish and The Grateful Dead. They hold numerous records for attendance at a ton of venues all around the south, and their concerts are definitely worthy of remembrance. Birmingham rakes in the dough not only from the entertainment taxes, but also from the bail money of the several dozen that always get arrested. They are definitely not mainstream and I honestly hope they never are. ;)

I watched these guys play a show a while ago, and I must say I was pretty impressed. They were quite good.

Acid bath.. They are deff unknown, its sad that many havent heard the beautiful voice of dax riggs, but at the same time the band is an underground legend.

Well I'm sure SOMEONE has heard of these 3 bands, but not many people that I know of.

Muse - okay so they're known by many, but still don't get enough attention!!
The Mars Volta
We Are Scientists

It isn't suprising because their records so far have been released on small local labels, but one of my top 5 favorite bands is a group called Franklin For Short. They are going to have a new record out in February and there is a lot of excitement about this maybe being the one that can propel them into some sort of success, but to date no one outside of the Ventura, CA area and maybe a bit of L.A. knows about them. They also put on a really great show. http://www.myspace.com/franklinforshort

You hear Okkervil River's name dropped maybe every now and again, but they are really great. They have a pretty cool rock and folk-y thing going on. A very cool sound.

Another one I don't get is a group out of Massachusettes called Apollo Sunshine. They have a kind of Pavement/Wilco thing with some classic rock influence. They're really interesting and their self titled album is really cool and has a lot of variation in types of songs. They have a great sound, and from what I hear, though I haven't caught it yet, they put on an amazing show.

Man, I hope that my assumption that Steve Simmons (above) is being sarcastic is correct.

**************
I suppose while I'm at it I may as well plug my band. We've got two tracks up from a record that we're making and a couple older demos. I think we're pretty cool, but I suppose I would.

There is also a side project from the first band (Franklin For Short) that I mentioned. The bass player made a really cool folk record that I like. One of the tracks, Born Down By A Side, is really, really good. The rest is good as well, but that one is the song.

A band called Four Horny Boys

I've never seen anyone on here, except maybe Jake, mention Less Than Jake. & I like them. A lot.


Neutral Milk Hotel gets like 1% of the attention they deserve.

edit** i just realized that Jake may have never mentioned Less Than Jake but i thought he did cause of the name thing.
Tehe.

the jonas brothers they r famous but my friend dosnt even know theme every singer or band thet comes from disney channel no one knows theme

Flee the seen

My brothers band

Local band

http://www.myspace.com/tonightisglory

Way too many to name, both signed and independant. Corperate radio sux, and MTV is great if you like rap or bad reality shows. Sirius radio does way more for the less corperate music scene, they accually play what they want, not just whats approved. I'm in a signed band who has traveled and toured for 4 years straight, the local stations here are owed by a large national called Journal Broadcast and they will not play anything that is not corperate approved. It sux! We get airplay all over and nationally on Sirius, but not in our own city!

Well, the people who know me probably know what I'm going to say!

The first one seems to only have a smallish fan base {partially due to a lot of people ignoring them as some sort of 'betrayal' by the guitarist} :~

Blackmore's Night

And I've yet see one other person mention :~

Willis

REHAB
http://www.rehabmusic.net/

Emmure
Dispatch

and some local bands called The Murder Rehearsal, .50 Cal. Comeback, A Bid Farewell (I think they changed their name), and Dying Fetus Ithink they all have a myspace and are good

Fugazi
Rites of Spring
Sunny Day Real Estate
Quicksand

Steve Simmons, your opinion is no longer valid in anything you say,especially since you listed the POS band called Creed after your ignorant speech. Go listen to good music moron.

Stutterfly
Alesana (they have been getting more noticed though)
www.myspace/alesana
Tonight Is Goodbye
www.myspace/tonightisgoodbye
All Time Low
A Skylit Drive
www.myspace/askylitdrive
Olympia
Faulter
www.faultermusic.com

If they haven't gotten any attention I assume it's for a reason- they suck. Every band named by answerers above me- I guarantee you, they all suck. Bands are popular for a reason. IF you want good music, check out some crowd favorites like Sugar Ray and Creed. Everything else is GARBAGE!!!!
