The underrated (but shouldn't be) music thread

[Axil]

[Axil]

Add Aphex Twin to the list

[Kross]

holy shit, drake, sigur ros and godspeed you black emperor fuck this thread in the mouth

[thetruepandagod]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor

broken social scene

sufjan stevens

john frusciante

the decemberists

me without you

mt eerie

and "i hate myself - to a husband at war" not a fan of the vocals but the lyrics are pretty amazing considering he just took authentic letters from the civil war that troops sent to their wives

[Ishido]

Add Aphex Twin to the list

Yes.

It's amazing that I listen to so much of this music (though probably the more known half of what has been listed), I have no perception of is mainstream, popular, etc...

[Jerseyprophet]

Shivaree - anything from the album "I outta give you a shot in the head"

BT of the Amplitude/Frequency series, oh shit yeah.

pretty sure it's that one, and speaking of amp/freq, wish they'd make a third. Freq was my first taste of the music game genre (aside from parappa the rapper) and I was addicted. Unfortunately sony wouldn't sell the game to harmonix despite the fact that they don't plan to make a third because it wouldn't be profitable enough

anyway, on topic.. big fan of hybrid, somewhat unknown in north america but huge in the UK. One listen to finished symphony and you'll be hooked. Also if you like their sound, check out jason dunne and shiloh

[Daahan]

Yeah, they made Guitar Hero 1 and 2 (coming out soon!) instead.

I think they'll come out with another.. at least, I fucking hope so.

they pick some of the best music for that game. I love it.

omg debut post of a long-time lurker HOLD ME I'M NERVOUS D:

I love music and I'm always digging up/finding new small bands...few of my all-time favs/recent repeat spammage:

Letters To Cleo (old band & broken up now still awesome) +cute girl singer ftw :D

Shiny Toy Guns (I like their song called Le Disko)

Her Space Holiday (neat group from CA that mixes some funky electronic music with orchestral tidbits)

Matt Pond PA <3

The Von Bondies

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

The Format [The First Single (Cause a Scene)]

Enjoy!



unfortunately I'm at work and I can't view myspace -_- or I'd link to some band pages :/

[Tumibumi]

music thread neato.

for something odd, and especially if you like guitar based music check out buckethead, puts out a million cds a month or something but sorta in the same thing as primus

a favorite of mine for many a year now is ISIS, currently on tour with tool, have a new cd in october

depending on if you like a slower dirge type sound, neurosis is quite good also

theres a band called genghis tron i found on myspace if you looking for a mix of electro and grind, then again if you like grind just hit up relapse records website or anywhere

portishead is god, theyve been working on a new album for years i highly doubt it'll come out

godspeed, its a shame they sorta stopped putting stuff out under that name but silver mount zion is pretty good

cheers

Vernon? Voorhees? I've never heard anyone call anything V-Town in NJ, only places in CA.

[Piper]

Method Man and Redman are underrated 8)
They should make a game with a G-unit or Tupac soundtrack other than those lame PS2 games about gangs.

[macbain24]

I don't know if they're well known or not but I love Rhapsody and Dragonforce.
