Well-known bands that don't get the attention they deserve

(1/6) > >>

Inlander:
What bands do you like, that plenty of people have heard of, but that nobody really seems to listen to?  I don't mean don't listen to in the sense of "Everyone but me thinks this band sucks", I mean bands that everyone seems to agree are good, but which for some inexplicable reason get a collective shrug of indifference.

I'm going to nominate the Silver Jews.  Why they're not more popular is an absolute mystery to me.  Every indie fan in the world should own a copy of American Water, it's a stone-cold classic.

No criticising other people's musical tastes, please - hate's not cool, kids!  Also, would-be hipster snobs note: this is not a thread for talking about wildly obscure bands that nobody's ever heard of.  I'm sure there's another thread somewhere for that kind of thing.

. . . Aaaand - go!!

ForteBass:
Personally I have to go with the Gin Blossoms on this one.

lastclearchance:
I want to nominate a specific record: Foo Fighters' The Colour and the Shape.

Are they well known? I've heard of the Silver Jews, and the Foor Fighters, but not the Gin Blossoms.

I've not got anyone that really counts under this.

Dara:
Gin Blossoms are kind of defunct aren't they? Mid-90's and stuff.

Silver Jews are great. I do own a copy of American Water! :D
