Really? I remember the band being featured in a mainstream *coughRollingStonecough* magazine once upon a time. Much too contrived. Besides, it is

I guess if you've heard of it, it's not obscure. 8)
There are millions of bands who have had blurbs in one rag or another that could reasonably be described as obscure — especially ten years after the
blurb ran.
Anyway, the point wasn't to congratulate Mike on finding a really obscure band, and to therefore encourage more people to "dig deep" to find more
obscure bands. I was just scrolling down the page, the name caught my eye, and I remember what a fun act they were to see. That was all! I never said
I wanted to bathe in their sweaty clothes or anything...
Can people around here take themselves (and the music they listen to) a little more seriously? Just curious...

Moving right along...
I would say that for someone who likes The Cult (especially the Electric and Sonic eras), they'd probably like:
Drivin' N Cryin'
Danzig
The Four Horsemen
Armored Saint

drivin' & cryin' in Midtown
Greetings, MD! Saw drivin' & cryin' yesterday at Music Midtown from the very same patch of earth where our gang saw The
Cult close Satruday night's festivities 2 years ago. A very similar, beautiful spring evening. Collective Soul (another Atlantic cast-out) closed
Saturday night this year, and Def Leppard closed last night with a helluva gig. Phil Collen has certainly improved his skills with age!

Elitism (especially when it comes to music) is such a bore. Remember, it is only rock 'n' roll.

I'm as jealous as I can be, EG. That's a great festival, and I hope I can make down again someday. I wish I could have seen Drivin' N Cryin' ("Fly Me
Courageous" was a favorite in college), as well as Kings X and Live. Another appearance by The Cult would certainly do the trick!

totally mainstream.....
that is my cd collection-bands everyone knows about
Tool
Rage Against the Machine
Smashing Pumpkins--
I used to get a great heads up about underground stuff from my friends in high school by word of mouth---now that connection is all gone
where the hell do you guys hear about the obscure bands out there?
are they actually any good? really worth smackin some cash down for?
this one band OURS i have posted about before. they're really good-i have Distorted Lullabies-very impassioned stuff-they are like a cross between U2
and Sisters of Mercy. dark yet beautiful melodies.

:angel: |
just a lil pissed at the elitest attitude that some of the posters have with their nondiscript and where are they now bands...
i could drop a list of bands that are currently releasing CD's this month...all of them could be my personal faves...how would you know any
different?...they are all fairly obscure...
Alpha Conspiracy
Black Heaven
Cyber Axis
De/Vision
Escape With Romeo
Garden of Delight
Jesus Complex
Lacrimosa
MZ412
Premature Ejaculation
Spanking Machine
Suicide Comando
Wolfsheim
ya get where i'm coming from now PG?...
cranky i maybe...
then for some others to start quoting bands that are as dead as a Dodo is also quite insane...how can any of the younger bands ever hope to break
through when the buying public spend their hard earned cash on crap like Led Dead Zep?...
i'm sorry if i offend anyone who seriously loves the bands of the past...i have a few of those CD's or even worse Vinyl Albums in my collection but
it's not what i go to listen to first...i want something new...intresting...ground breaking...i guess i'm just restless...
ok...i've stopped bitching for now
have a nice day! :D

guitar work)
I agree with choices like
The Mission
HIM

Obscurities?

Yes Doggie, I follow you.
I like a lot of old bands, but elitist I am not. My exposure to new bands consists of what I get here and what’s on music tv. And to be honest, I
really don’t like much of whats on tv, I think it’s crap. That’s why I live in the past…..I think the 80’s produced some of the best
bands/music ever, and it all came from England. You know what I’m talking about. You dearie, got to see it happen in person. Show me new stuff
that’s just as good, and I’d consider it, otherwise, I’ll just stick to my sad old tired/dead goth bands.
In closing, I wouldn’t mind escaping though with Romeo to the Garden of Delight, but please no Premature Ejaculation, or Jesus Complex, I want to
feel Black Heaven on my skin!
Sorry!!!!!! I had to do it, you just set it up so nicely for me………………now go ahead Dog… Punish me with the Spanking Machine or submit me
to the lobotomizing waves of the Alpha Conspiracy, or better yet enroll me in the Cyber Axis as a Suicide Commando, my weapon of choice, the MZ412
with Night De/Vision! LOL Come on Doggie, admit it, I made you smile, didn’t’ I? I can see it out from here in the Milky Way. And NO I don’t
need you to tell me I missed Lacrimosa and Wolfsheim! Okay, I’m done teasing you for today.
Enjoy your obscurities, My Pet,
PG

I knew I'd get a smile out of you.
But my, that music you like.....You’re a dark creature, aren’t you, Doggie? Hmmm. I met one of those once, a creature of the night. He called
me a stalker, then he fell in love with me and pursued me until he caught me up in his arms and never let me go. And now I’m the light in his
life.
Thanks for the recommendations. I like the sound, but some of the lyrics just make me laugh. I mean who can take Necromancy seriously? Well, I
can’t, it just makes me smile. And for christs sake, you want me to listen to a god damn cd with a snake on it??? GRRRR, sorry… (Love
Alchemy)..can’t tolerate those creatures.
Oh, and it’s nice that you know how to practice the Art of Subtlety when it come to women. Most people I find don't know how to do that.
Until we meet again, my Pet.

Gotta agree here! There isn't much good new Rock n' Roll that has come along in the last 8 years or so! It's all watered down, unintelligent, and
generic. I haven't felt music that inspires me or a sound out there that eviscerates me on the altar of the sonic temple like The Cult or some of the
other older bands I listen to. I like all kinds of music, but I'm not quite sure what "does it for me" musically. I hear something that I like and I
play the shit out of it!
I like The Cult and I like (don't know if anyone else would care for it, though.):
Danzig
The Doors
Matthew Sweet
Urge Overkill
Sparklehorse
Sponge
Fields of the Nephilim
Buckcherry
Sloan
Hoodoo Gurus
Flaming Lips
Some bands you definitely might like if you're into the Electric sound (some are obvious):
Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction
Crazyhead
Ramones
Whitesnake
zeppelin
The Fourhorsemen
Bang tango
I said "Elemental" and just then, it started to rain.

I don't think many bands reflect in each collection by liking The Cult.
Who's to say what goes and what doesn't?
I list the following as bands that I like but not cos I like The Cult....
Simple Minds
Led Zeppelin
Black Sabbath
Pantera
Slayer
KISS
Iron Maiden
Metallica
Inxs
U2
The Cure
Ned's Atomic Dustbin
TOOL
Killswitch Engage
Mansun (UK Band not the US twat :P)
Soundgarden
Pearl Jam
Nirvana
Mother Love Bone
Foo Fighters
Slipknot
Alice In Chains
Big Country
Anthrax
Lemonheads
Belly
Elvis Presley
The Police
Sting (to a cetain extent)
3 Colours Red
Killing Joke
The Pixies
Filter
Smashing Pumpkins
Zwan
Deftones
Machine Head
Guns N Roses
Mudvayne
there maybe a few connections in there to The Cult but I wouldn't say I was influenced to check them out because I like The Cult....
Big Country had The Cult support them in 1984 and Mark Brzezicki played drums on the Love album...
I think that was the only thing that raised my eyebrow but I had Sonic Temple and Electric before I bought Love....
Fuck it all and fucking no regrets I hit the lights on these dark sets.
