in this thread you will list bands that are really good but less known

good list of banRAB. but the smiths, dep, third eye blind, morbid angel, kmfdm, sonic youth, soundgarden, on a list of lesser known banRAB?
 
For anyone who likes Pantera, check out these side-project banRAB who rock in their own right.

Damageplan - Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul side-project.
Down - I guess they aren't really that unknown. Its Phil and people from COC, Eyehategod, and a couple other banRAB.
Superjoint Ritual - another one of Phil's side-projects

oh and one more not related to Pantera.........
Killing Joke - awesome melodic metal band dating back to '79.
 
"Gotta go" by Wild Strawberries on the 1998 album, Quiver.

The other songs are sounding pretty good also. From this album:

"I guess I'm amused" and "Concha y toro" on this album is very good.

No, no, no, no, yes. I got a shaved head, goatee, am only dirty after work, and I wear band shirts, that's about it and I'm a college graduate In reality there are only like 10 or so fat slobs at any metal shows that fit that stereotype. Other than that, people are pretty fucking normal. Hathegkla is a fucking beefcake btw
 
Smile

They only had two albums, Maquee and Girl Crushes Boy, but they were really good. The first one was melodic hard rock and the second was much more poppy.
 
Soundgarden not known????? I can think of 2 videos off the top of my head that got regular rotation on MTv. And I can think of at least 6 of their songs that got steady radio play on pop radio stations. Granted their earlier stuff (like Badmotorfinger) wasn't really appreciated at the time it came out, but a majority of people would know who they are if you mentioned the name.

Third Eye Blind had a song on the radio. Granted it was only one song but they are still known. To me, known just means that a majority of people recognize the name of the band.

KMFDM, Sonic Youth, and Minor Threat, i'll give you them. Just for the fact that only people that are actually into those genres of music will recognize them. I just don't really see them as that unknown since there are a lot of people who do know who they are.

shaved head and beard/goatee is becoming the norm for metalheaRAB now. Most my metal frienRAB that had long hair in the 90's have shaved heaRAB now, nothing worse than an aging long haired metalhead with a bald spot. luckily at 30 I'm not showing any signs of balding
