Silenced Fred Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diOEpmQLN50 Came up on my Pandora playing stuff from the Greenhornes. Cool kinda spacey/psychedelic stuff. I dig it. Any weird bands you found out about by chance that nobody will probably know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanbeastie Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Not so much weird but under appreciated and not given credit are the "toy dolls" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYn4mAoGT30&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9jqMkvplBg&feature=related [thumbup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstMeasure Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smmDsfPKKPM When I saw these guys back in '96 they said "Thank you, Good Night" between every song. Even though they are bit "90's Hippy-esque" I think they're right up your Alley, Fred...er Nathan. They tend to use a lot of fuzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvanPC Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 They're probably a little more well known than some of the bands already linked, but, I'd say THE MARS VOLTA is at the top for me. Been following them since their first album De-loused in the Comatorium. Reading their track titles is enough to gather they're OUT THERE. Ridiculously talented, and though the band sort of has a revolving door of musicians, the main two guys are always what is The Mars Volta. For the record, regardless of who their drummer happens to be on whichever album, he tends to be PHENOMENAL. You'd almost be inclined to think they don't know what they're doing at all ata quick listen, however, if you hang on long enough to hear them bring it back to earth, it's some of the most beautiful and original music out there, if you ask me. These guys are one of my absolute favorites. Also a pleasure to see live, and such a chaotic sound held tightly by a 7 piece or more band. For the record, I have about an 80% failure rate when suggesting this band to people. I talk them up, and the hate them....oh well. To each their own.

Dub-T-123 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diOEpmQLN50 Came up on my Pandora playing stuff from the Greenhornes. Cool kinda spacey/psychedelic stuff. I dig it. Any weird bands you found out about by chance that nobody will probably know? That was pretty sweet. You should listen to the album "Phoenix" by the Warlocks. I was listening to it the other day and I think you'll dig it. It's not weird it's just sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Lady Ga Ga makes weird mainstream, and as it has become a rock tradition to be more outrageous then the last "big thing" who knows where the rush for weirdness will end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brundaddy Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbLDI5lNdRQ I loved seeing that song performed & the singer getting the sh!t beaten out of him each time he tried to resume performing on 'Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl.'

brundaddy Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 PEELANDER Z!! I opened up for those guys in New Orleans, they put on a fun show. I always thought it was funny that the guy who's not Japanese (round eyes) always wore goggles so nobody would notice. I LOVE these guys: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
