Small bands that are actually quite good

Discussion in 'TC Media' started by peaky95, May 6, 2011.

  1. The Vaccines are good!

    Post break up * and the Ra Ra Ra song are both class.:50:
     
  2. Good shout mate.

    Anybody remember Milburn? Whatever happened to them?
     
  3. Seen Kassidy in ABC, they were pretty good. Twisted Wheel are worth a listen to aswell. The View aren't as big as they should be either. Quality band!!
     
  4. Let me post two quality video that fits the words small and the good then. :86: (Hope you like country) To the starter of this thread....what´s the next band you´re going to post? Metallica?

  5. strapping young lad, hardly anyone i know has heard of them, but i like them.
     
  6. :icon_mrgreen: Not really true. They have played the biggest metal fests. Ok. The general music loving public wont know them, but it's not like they're playing in small pubs don't they?
     
  7. I seen them live at download like 8 years ago. Their pretty good.
     
  8. 13 senses,the delays,the doves,bush
     
    Someone said Gaslight Anthem, :50:

    There's a guy called Marques Toliver that I just found out about a few weeks ago. Think he's going to hit it big soon, think he has a couple eps out.

  9. PLayed at my uni bar a few nights ago, I would have gone if I wasnt in the middle of exams

    Black Tide are good band which dont have a huge following

    Poisonblack are a band I like who are only big in finland.

    The sword are a talented metal band. Basically a mix between black sabbath mastodon and wolfmother.

  10. Aye me CeltBot class band, that guy has some voice too!
     
  11. Devin Townsend is a complete and utter legend. Some hairstyle :56: good band. Although they're biggish for an Extreme Metal band.

    I would have to say all the Death Metal bands I like would be in this category because the biggest selling Death Metal band of all time has only sold 1.5 million records over 20 years.
     
  12. Mates of mine from Sligo, lived with the singer/bassist at Uni too. Couldnt meet a nicer bunch of fella's and there are celtic fans in there too :50:

    And on the other side of the rock genre there are 'Zombified' from Belfast who play old school death/thrash. Startin to make a good name for themselves, had some amazing shows as support for the likes of Suffocation and Decapitated

  13. Think a few people need to check their definition of 'small'. Bands like The National are not small bands (although they're brilliant), Mumford and Sons, The Script etc - not small bands. Even Frightened Rabbit aren't really small time now.
     
  14. They aren't really big though mate (most of them), I doubt alot of people on the forum know bands like Frabbit or the National.
     
  15. Two Door Cinema Club.


    Not that small now but they will be a lot bigger after the festival season has finished, their album is quality and this song in particular is a belting summer tune.

  16. Would say The National stepped up a level with High Violet but they're still nowhere near as well known as someone like Arcade Fire. Can only be a good thing to get more people to hear them, they are something else. Not many bands would put out such consistently brilliant albums as they have with the last three.
     
  17. Define what makes a band big or small.
     
  18. Larry Guild - Scotlands best kept secret
