Thread: Post New Music that is Obscure and Awesome.

Found this album randomly among the many boxes of used CDs in some record shop in the city, bought it just because it looked cool (which is fun to do when the cd's are a mere 99 cents ). Good stuff for anyone into good progressive rock/progressive metal. I only have the one album but plan on getting one of the other two soon.

Grifta is one of my favourite drum n bass artists and he's relatively unkown.

Pretty goddamn amazing.

Anyway, I don't think this is mainstream. I actually like a remix to it better, and some other songs better but most people seem to like this one:

This is a cool Metal band from Japan called 五人一首(goninisshu) in Japan and Gonin-Ish in America

Spoiler for 五人一首:

This might be a little old but the album is about OBEs so I thought I'd post it.

Ok, this isn't exactly "new", as the band no longer exists (their frontman died in the early 90's), but being both obscure and awesome I thought you guys might like to hear about this. The band I'm referring to is Kingston wall, a 3-piece progressive/psychedelic rock group from Finland. Their music was built on a base of rock influences including most notably Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd, a sound which was bent with progressive elements and strong influences from middle-eastern music, which are evident in their first two album covers. Their third album, the last released before their singer/guitarist's death, entitled Tri-ogy, evolved the band's style and experimented with a broader range of sounds including synthesizers and atmosphere provided by didgeridoo. The work was written as a concept album, partly based around the Bock Saga.

Here's a sample of their music, most of which can be found on YouTube:

Spoiler for first ablum:

"I'm Not The One"


a cover of Hendrix's "Fire", really shocases the drummer's abilities

Spoiler for second album:

A more complex sound emerges on this album, also introduces some lighter songs than those posted here.

"We Cannot Move"

"Two Of A Kind"

Spoiler for Third Album:

"Take You to Sweet Harmony"


I particularly like this one. Great guitar work.

Here's a bonus, a live cover of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" at one of their "Freak Out Club" events.



The two living members of the band are now members of the blues-rock band Zook. Here's "Buckshot" from their debut album Root Canal Recovery

Pretty much my favorite band at the moment, their new album just came out about a week ago n_n

Thanks, everybody. Some great stuff there.

This is from five years ago, but I guess it counts.

This is some more recent bluegrass from East Tennessee.

This is a local band I have seen and met. I think they're excellent.

"Save" on the "Edit Post" option hasn't been working lately, so I am double posting. Sorry. This is some bizarre dance rap stuff from a Baton Rouge guy called Culotta Rock.

All right, that's about all I have for now.
