Favourite Lesser Known Tune

[MellowFellow]

Invaders must die by The Prodigy

It just sounds cool to me and I have noticed it used in movie trailers randomly in the background.

 

[Skorpyo]

Gotta throw some Clutch your way:

 

[Harlemura]

Lights - Romance Is

I really like that song.

I'm gonna second that.
I'm also going slightly off topic to say a thank you for pointing out Lights' stuff in another thread. You went an' got me hooked on her stuff.

Bringing the topic back to... on...
Spiralmouth's stuff's different to say the least, due to it being all a cappella. I'd only recommend the stuff they did for Crash Twinsanity though because, after doing a quick search for them, I found out they actually did some quite dirty stuff.
But hey, if you're into that, added bonus I guess.

No problem. I'm glad I could spread her music to other people!

[Riddle78]

I present to you the chorus of Streetlight Manifesto's "Point/Counterpoint"
I have a gun in my hand,
But the gun won't cock.
My finger's on the trigger,
But that trigger seems locked.
And I can't stop staring at that tick-tock clock.
But even if I could I would never give up.
With a vest
On my chest,
A bullet in my lung!
I can't beleive I'm dying with my song unsung!
If and when I die,
Won't you bury me alone?
'Cuz I'll never get to Heaven if I'm singing this song!
[Cue the brass instuments!]

 

[unoleian]

Can't wait to finally see them live! These guys are the shit, and yet, hardly anyone I know talks about them. Makes me sad :-(

[Soushi]

Well, i listen to mostly instrumental music, so my favourite unknown tune is "The United Federation of Planet's Theme" and in a very VERY close tie with it is "I am Lincoln" form the movie 'The Island'

 

[Instinct Blues]

I present to you Beach House.


It makes me sad at how few people actually know who this band is because the music they make is just awesome. Its so compelling and emotional yet I never hear anyone else talk about them unless I'm the one bringing them up.

 

[Snarky Username]

I don't know what it is, but this song always makes me smile, especially this version.

Also...

 

[Aerodynamic]

Origin of the Species and Livin' at the corner of dude and catastrophe by MC Frontalot, not a lot of people like nerdcore, but I think it's awesome Plus they're available as DLC on Rockband so why not?

Bow to the nerdcore rising!
