What obscure music/bands do you like?

[deevergote]

I thought this would be interesting. Everyone knows the stuff that's on the radio, or on eMpTyVee, but there are TONS of good bands and styles out there that aren't mainstream. If you can provide MP3 links, do so!

Here are a few of mine.

band-------------album
=============
Cynic ----------- Focus (technical death metal with jazz influences)
Enchantment - Dance the Marble Naked (interestng melodic doom metal)
Samael --------- Passage (incredible electronic-influenced death metal)
Punchline ------ Major Motion Picture, Rewind EP (great pop-punk http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/132/the_punchline.html)


I'll add more to the list later. I'm just interested in what you guys (and girls) listen to, and if anyone knows my stuff!
Also, if anyone has that Enchantment CD, would you be interested in sending me the MP3s? I only have the tape, and no reliable way to put it down on CD. I miss it!

True... Although there are a few styles that just never seem to rise to the mainstream level... well, not so much as the usual pop stuff. Like death metal... Or even older stuff that's all but forgotton, like jazz. Maynard Ferguson is another of my favorites (jazz trumpet player). Very few people know who he is. So, to add to the list:

Maynard Ferguson -------- These Cats Can Swing (GREAT little-big band jazz. Check out the arrangement of Caravan!)

they arent really an obscure band, but i am deeply in love with radiohead. not so much their new new stuff, its good, but their older stuff is the shiznat.
