Page 1 of Obscure bands

Flicking through my old vinyl yesterday and wondered if many others liked (or had heard of) some of the relatively obscure bands I used to be so keen on. For example:

Inner City Unit

The Golden Horde

Daisy Chainsaw

Vicious Rumour

Cock Sparrer

Ruptured Dog

Sinister Ducks

Cardiacs

Dubious Brothers


Well?

I saw The Cardiacs live a couple of times - they were pretty unique!

I remember Daisy Chainsaw too - one hit wonders....

I know they arent obscure, but i used to love G n R and was ashamed by their recent gigs (with a guitarist called `buckethead` who, um, wears a KFC bucket on his head.....).

And i dug out an old Neds Atomic Dustbin cd out the other day.


VROOM VROOM!!

My Bloody Valentine are great, their best album was Loveless (1991) by a slight margin. They are quiet popular but still fit into that obscure catagory in my opinion.


EDIT: I also hear they are reforming (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) :D

Sinister Ducks - Everyone thinks they`re such cute little things!
Manged to see these in Northampton (home town of Alan Moore and David J) many moons ago - splendid!
Dubious Brothers - absolutley great band - supported New Model Army in the early 90`s.


Gaye Bykers On Acid - not so obscure, but sadly missed by the masses. The same, I suppose can be said of Pop will Eat Itself.

Live a life you love, use a god you trust, and don`t take it all too seriously

A band I was once in played a gig at the Bull & Gate in Kentish Town, where a very early incarnation of My Bloody Valentine were the support act.

At another gig we were supported by Spacemen 3, featuring Jason Pierce who went on to form Spiritualized...

Nice sput, did you talk to any of them.

daisy chainsaw?

"love , love, love , love.. all your MONEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY!"

great band. And "love your money" went top 10 I think.

My DVD Collection

Seen the cardiacs several times, even got a very bizarre video of theirs that they did when the first album was released.
There still on the go but dont seem to gig much, see

I used to play in a band, we supported Chumbawumba before they got "famous" with that
mad lager lager song. We also did a carnival with Credit to the Nation before they had
a chart hit.
