Great bands you discovered

[J-Man]

I recently discovered two great bands I'd never heard of, and I was wondering if you Escapists had found any cool unknown bands either?

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

Debauchery. They're a slow death metal band from Germany. You have to REALLY like them if you want to like them, because I only like their song, "Blood for the Blood God".

 

[Apocalypse Tank]

two recently discovered bands that plays pretty well (both kind of alternative, something I am not a big fan of):

Muse
Lostprophets

Oh yeah I heard of the Lostprophets. Everyday Combat. Anyway whats Muse.


And he might not be a band, or for all I know not that unheard of but he's Jonathan Coulton.
Also I heard of Cake if anyone else knows them... well great.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

I know Muse, I think I saw them in concert in Missouri before they were cool. Like the Red Hot Chili Peppers in Lawrence, KS.

 

[Aiden Rebirth]

I really fell in love with keane. They went pretty unheard of here in the states, most people had heard there first hit "Somewhere only we know" but didn't know who it was by.

 

[Gxas]

Sea of Treachery and Enter Shikari. Awesome bands.

 

[chronobreak]

Electric Six are great, I recommend them to everyone who likes to have fun.

 

[Copter400]

The J-Metal band Maximum the Hormone. Really energetic songs and great vocals. They composed the opening and ending themes for the second series of Death Note.

[The_Deleted]

Alice Donut & Poisoned Electrick Head.
Nobody I know has ever heard of them.

 

[ZombieFace]

Hella.

 

[Maet]

Electric Six are great, I recommend them to everyone who likes to have fun.

I still have yet to download their new album too...

Sloan (Canadian Power-Pop/Rock) is the best band you've never heard of.

 

[ChocoCake]

I discovered Chiodos and Scary Kids Scaring Kids awhile back. Just recently, I found out about From First to Last and Radio City Tragedy. The latter bands are kind of...new, therefore I don't necessarily like them a whole lot.

 

[Baby Tea]

Bedouin Soundclash!
Love 'em! Great for relaxing. Helps me with my road-rage with I'm driving.

Also, unapologetically: Jenny Rom.
Say what you will, but I can't help but tap my foot to the crazy pop-techno beats...of Jenny Rom.

 

[black lincon]

Of Montreal, they makes some generally trippy music so if your a big metal fan, you won't like them. I would suggest you take a look at some of their music videos, they're incredibly creative or insane, it's all a matter of how you look at them.

here are some of their wierder ones;

Aria and Epidemia.

Very good music on both of them.

 

[EXPLICITasian]

atmosphere

 

[Good morning blues]

A couple of the better-known but still not mainstream bands I like include The Most Serene Republic, Apostle of Hustle, and Jeffrey Lewis. For a really obscure band, though, you can't go wrong with The SSRIs.

 

[Sycker]

Metronomy and I Monster for all those in need of an English-Electro-Alternative-Pop intake.

We met em last year at a very small gig in Manchester uk. Very polite, well informed fellas they were too.
