Underrated or Lesser Known Bands

[karmanya]

A band I like is called Dishwala. The songs are pretty nice. Im not sure what you would call the Genre, but its sort of soft-rock. The song Candleburn is especially nice. Sort-a snow patrol'ey

Have you tried Disturbed, system of a down & breaking benjamin? They are not lesser known or underrated. Just posted for your info, though.

Those who want to get into local rock, start here.

thanx for the link.

^^Yah... lame emo bands (except SOAD). Used to listen to them before some time. Now they just suck for me.

 

[krazzy]

A Pakistani band named Fuzon. Their songs like Akhiyaan, Aakhon Ke Sagar, Tere bin aye sanam, etc. are awesome.

 

[Psychosocial]

Well I have been hearing about this band called Saxon since long. But never heard any of their songs . Now today, I heard their new album and I am blown away. Its just awesome. Heavy Metal at its best! Mind blowing riffs and melodic vocals. A change from Death/Black. The band is awesome so is their new album. \m/

 

[ratedrsuperstar]

guyz check out my grammy nominees thread lets get those mainstream n00bs

 

[Anorion]

I like Saxon too... that's pretty oldschool though, like Motormouth or Whitesnake. You will like Diamondhead and Rainbow too.
For those who like melodic stuff like Amon Amarth, be sure to check out Eluveitie, Tyr, Finsterforst, Mithotyn and Finntroll.

 

[Psychosocial]

^I like Saxon. They are good but IMO they arent lesser known....

Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton and Joe Satriani are some solo musicians who arent quite well known or are mostly under-rated .

Here I go...

-> Vio-Lence - Thrash Metal
-> Quo Vadis - death metal
-> Innergy - Prog. Metal
-> Dark Angel - thrash metal
-> Carrion Wrath - metal
-> Korozy - black metal
-> Ocean - doom metal
-> The Lamp of Thoth - doom metal
-> Insomnium - melo. death metal
-> Riverside - prog. metal


Under-rated :-

Slash's Snakepit - rock

 

[ratedrsuperstar]

THE BEST FREE MUSIC YOU'LL EVER GET

such a shame that a band like them can't get a label to release their stuff

 

[Faun]

Well actually you dont need a label to release when internet and P2P is there I hate these mid wives who suckor up huge amounts and artist + customers are the losers then.

Silly doubt
Are most of the bands mentioned here offering free downloads (of their albums) on their respective websites? (just asking )

 

[Psychosocial]

^No way

But if you get them 'that' way then yes, they are up for free downloads

 

[Anorion]

^You are not allowed to say that, according to the rules

interested in doom metal, will Check out Dark Moor, anyone, know any more?

Its a great rush to put Doom metal on the playlist and play games like Q3

Edit: Hey, Dark Moor is great, Heard Fall of Melnibone, and was surprised. I thought only Hawkwind and Blue Oyster Cult played Moorcock-related music. This is great!

 

[Psychosocial]

^The Lamp of Thoth and Mournful Congregation are the two 'MUST listen bands' for you then .

 

[aditya1987]

Underrated :-

Avenged Sevenfold (A7X) - Heavy Metal

Listen to their song "Critical Acclaim". It's their heaviest and best song.

Check out the live version of "Critical Acclaim" in LBC, it's better that studio version and fcukin' awesome.
