that's all I know from them...
My answer: Five Finger Death Punch. A good majority of my friends like hard rock, metal, etc, but most never heard of them, and I think they are quite amazing.

and Twisted Method, though they only ever put out one album. They called it quits after a member died :T

Forgive the links, I'm a retard and still have no idea how to post videos and pics properly...and I'm also too lazy to find out how by searching through the site and such...
I love that beautiful man so much...The Devin Townsend Project are freaking incredible.Addicted! is one of my favourite albums of all time too!Julianking93 said:
I also love Strapping Young Lad,who are insanely heavy.
Damn, I really want to see them live, but i just checked and their closest concert is around 7 hours away.Matt_LRR said:
Umm, what about everyone who has seen Malcolm in the Middle? They are pretty well known outside of that too though.Fenreil said:
That's strange, The Arcade Fire are pretty popular as far as i can tell.Enigma6667 said:
Umm...
Well this band is really famous in their home country (NZ) but aren't well known at all outside of that. They aren't nearly as famous as they deserve to be imo.
Shihad:
The Veils are seriously awesome too (and their bassist is a total fox):
Whispered - They're a typical Finnish melodic death metal but they have Japanese influences

I thought I would add what bands sound like - so that you know what you are looking up. I myself am pulling up every band that gets listed on here, but I know most don't have that type of time. We are looking for bands to play with on our first regional tour.
Huh. Where I'm at, nobody I know has ever heard of them. I guess L.A.ers are waaay too unhealthily interested in Justin Bieber that we rarely hear of shit that's actually good.Matt_LRR said:
Dont know if its just obscure for people from Norway but i still list these:
Edguy
Avantasia
Gamma Ray
Pagans Mind
Stratovarius
to name some.
Edit: yeah, i know! It weird to think that the country that founded Black Metal would be dumbfounded when it comes to metal, especially power metal, but the mainstream Norwegian audience don't know the difference between Opeth and Sonata Arctica. It's fucking embarrassing.
