[SugaBear24]

I Hate MTV & BET...so I am always on the lookout for some good underground/indie sh!t...What are some Bands that you love that either arent in the mainstream, are unknown, or that people just don't talk about much or Like at all...?

BrianJonestown Massacre and AutoLux are the bands that I've been feelin latley but don't hear much about...

[Kill Whitey]

Jesus Mary Chain
Bele Sebastian
Brian Jonestown Massacre
Flaming Lips
The Moldy Peaches
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
The OUtcrowd

I mean I'm sure a lot of people like these Bands, but probably not very many people that come to this site listen to them..

The majority of people aren't going to know who they are though. That is what I thought this thread was in reference to.

Animal Collective is sort of blowing up on the indie scene.

How is West Indian Girl? He/she/them (I don't know?) are doing an instore down the street from my house. Worth checking out?

Music to angst too :laugh:

The Wildhearts, one of Englands greatest rock bands :yes:

You could start with anyone of their albums, but I like "Greetings from shiitsville" & "PHUQ" above them all. "Don't Be Happy Just Worry" is good, but they really started to click after that album.

Placebo

Sigur Ros
The Sundays
Stina Nordenstam

I guess they get described a lot as a "post-punk" sound, but they're pretty unique. Darker themes hidden in very catchy tunes. All of their albums are pretty great IMO. Lead singer Brian Molko is kinda reminiscent of Gordon Gano and old Billy Corgan.
