Bands that have never been mentioned on TB

[jamro217]

Then there are bands made famous on TB. Complete.

 

[AboutSweetSue]

Got one…”The Weeks”



This one, too. The only mention of it was by me so it doesn’t count. “Sierra Ferrell”

Holy cow, Eek-a-Mouse! I haven't heard that name since I left Virginia in 1994, thanks for the brain jumpstart.

 

[NigeJ]

The Three Amoebas

 

[JTbass44]

Descendents
Tony Lombardo was a very solid bassist and underrated.

I would mention a couple bands here, but then the thread title would become a lie wouldn’t it

I picked up this Sopwith Camel LP in a thrift store.
There’s some really cool stuff on here, so I did a search and saw nothing mentioned about them.
Here’s one cut.
Edit: I guess it goes to the whole album. The 7th track has some nice walking bass.

I wonder if they ever did gigs with…

(you’ll have to look it up)

There was a show many years ago at a local club that had a bunch of obscure metal bands and the band I mentioned was there. No, I didn’t go, but the name stuck with me like dog $&@& on my shoe.

 

[MG Wolf]

Stiff Little Fingers

 

[J-Bassomatic]

Lloyd Cole and the Commotions

I don't know about 'never mentioned' but an excellent Scottish pop band that didn't get enough recognition.

 

[SLPimp]

War on Women. Bad Cop, Bad Cop. The Bombpops.

One syrupy love song... one less of a love song. I do understand why they wouldn't be mentioned... but thought that anyone that has that much fun making a video deserves to be mentioned once.

[Moon Fetus]

Out of curiosity I searched to see if anyone on here had ever mentioned Death In June, and it turns out someone had once in a song association game thread. That legitimately surprised me. The average age here does kind of mean that there are vast swathes of music that have never been mentioned...

The burden of proof is on you. I looked up three of the most obvious names on that first list to prove a point, but any additional, ain’t nobody got time for that.

I'm honestly surprised I've never seen BadBadNotGood mentioned. Super interesting band going from jazz to super 70's soul, and even doing live hiphop style backing music for a few notable MCs. Bassist is pretty dang good. Big rec for anyone into the above. I've got a few of their albums and I love them all. Lots of variety and the occasional MC / Singer on tracks really pops out for a mostly instrumental band.

This live performance of their album IV kinda blew me away. Do they have some wandering tempo, sure, are there some mistakes, yup! I like them more for that. Also the location and filming on this is incredible.

This thread has taken an odd turn.

--- ok, ok...finally, someone else noticed!

Just for the bass in Sabotage alone, Beastie Boys must be up there. Always loved that opening bass.
