Zzzzzzz


I had an idea, but it may be dumb - how about obscure bands that most people have never heard of. Like the ones that didn't make the Top 40 - alternative types like Gothic, Ska, punk, etc.

Go-go band from Washington DC. Had one hit with "Doin' the Butt" int the late 80's, but had a lot more than just that.

Gaelic Storm-the party band from the movie Titanic. OK, well maybe they were part of a popular movie, but...If anyone gets a chance to go see them, do it! They put on one of the most infectious (in a good way) concerts you'll ever see!

Human Drama - GREAT quasi-goth band. They don't really have a macbre goth sound, and he has this incredible way of touching on whatever emotion you may be feeling in at least one of his songs.

A punk band that a friend of mine loves. He says they're great, I've never heard (of) them before.

Does that count? I don't think they were too mainstream. Part of the New Wave in the 80s.
