I heard a song like 6 months ago but i don't know the title, and i love it so much !!!!. it's electronic and uses the sound of a telegraph at the beggining and at the middle... it also uses choirs and the lead voice is from a man, but i can't identify the language, it sounds scandinavian. If someone can help me i'd really appreciate it: i have a part of the song that i recorded, i can send it to you to make my life easier, please !
Zen Guerrilla!!!!!! they're awesome SubPops website describest them as A fusion of blues, rock, and gospel, Zen Guerilla’s musical style comes as naturally to them as licking gravy. Their sound is as genuine and as pure as Al Green’s sweat. It screams, it moans, it shakes and it moves.
millionaire - a band from belgium; their latest record (paradisiac) is produced by josh homme by the queens of the stone age;
the singer of millionaire; tim vanhamel, also played guitar on a side projekt of josh homme, the eagles of death metal, another good unknown band.
i hurt myself today,
to see if i still feel,
i focus all the pain,
the only thing that´s real...
Since I don't think that Gov't Mule aren't "well known" band, I'll feel free to mention
Allman Brothers Band
and
Derek Trucks Band.
It's always good to check "what runs in the family".
Btw, Gov't Mule are still my favorite "Allmans".
Since we're talking Canadian bands, here's a few more:
The Weakerthans
Sam Roberts
Matt Mays & El Torpedo
The Constantines
Cuff the Duke
Greg Macpherson Band
Sarah Harmer
Matthew Good
Sloan
C'mon
Kathleen Edwards
Lowest of the Low
Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir
The Trews
The New Pornographers
Joel Plaskett
The Stills
Ron Sexsmith
that's some great canadian talent! might i add tegan and sara, the skydiggers, wintersleep, and sara slean...the only ones i disagree with on your list are the trews. i can't stand them, so generic! otherwise, fantastic canadian music @ work...
We'll, you took my main recommendation in the DBT. Also check out Robert Randolph & The Family Band. And the Flaming Lips if you haven't heard any of their stuff, although they are somewhat well known.
Robert Randolph & The Family Band....nice....hmmm...
Derek Trucks Band, moe. , Ratdog, Soulive, Widespread Panic ??? they're pretty well known though.
Grant Lee Buffalo - Awesome! (especially albums Fuzzy and Mighty Joe Moon)
Nine Black Alps - New Grungy band from Manchester,England(Debut Album-Everything is)
The Subways
'All the rusted signs,we ignore throughout our lives,
Choosing the shiny ones instead'
Im gonna pump for Opshop, a New Zealand band with a lead singer who sounds more Bono than Bono. They're unbelieveable live and hopefully got some new stuff coming out soon.
Its been 8 years, but I still believe...PJ in NZ 06!
"No matter how cold the winter, theres a springtime ahead'
God Lives Underwater
Sponge
BT (Brian Transeau) mostly known for scoring films but his albums ESCM,MISL,Emotional Technology are Beautiful works of art.
Seems the more you make
equals the loneliness you get
After reading through this thread it was hard to tell exactly what criteria was necessary for listing a band...so I'll name a few who don't get enough respect and a few that are good but few have heard of.
No respect:
Helmet - no one ever mentions Helmet and I have no fucking clue why...they rock
NOFX - one of the best punk bands on the planet...probably get no respect cuz they don't care
Dinosaur Jr. - best "grunge" band no one listened to
Pavement - great artsy rock band type thing
Few have heard
Failure - spacey alt rock type deal...everyone go find their fantastic planet disc...buddies w/ tool if that tickles your fancy
Snapcase - good hardcore punkish type deal
Sebadoh - hard to define go check out bakesale or harmacy
Far - emocorish or something...whatever it is it's good...water and solutions and tin cans w/ strings to you are good discs...friends w/ the deftones if that matters to ya
Hayden - someone earlier mentioned Hayden and they were right on the money...he rules...kind of folksy rock thing goin on here
Quicksand - alt rock outfit...very solid...check out slip or manic compression
I could probably think of more if I had the time but I think I'll end it here and maybe lay a few more down at some other time...happy listening
And a mention for Cecil as well,they were from Liverpool, England and were quite brilliant when they wanted to be. Unfortunately they split a few years back due to being signed to a label who didnt know what to do with them.
