    Gandharvas - First Day Of Spring

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KalQfUBA1VM

    Yeah.Great band. Lotta talent. Vocals were soaring and epic."Watching the girl" really showcased his range and actually had a PJ feel to it.Not he vocals, obviously not similar, but the intensity and chord progressions.So cool. Brought back good memories watching first day of spring.

    Not sure if these qualify as semi-obscure since I have no idea if they had any following outside of the Chicago area...

    Triplefastaction
    Material Issue
    Red Red Meat
    Eleventh Dream Day (they're still around and just played a show about a week and a half ago.)
