5 best underrated or unknown bands and why?

My list: 1 Residents (for their attitude in commercial world) 2 Plastic people of the universe (jailed many times for playing Fug's,Velvet U. and difficult music) 3 Palinckx (avantgard followers of Zappa) 4 Idiot Flesh (very unique and theatrical music) 5 Uz jsme doma (playing beautifull energetic and complex music)

I agree with Dogeatpuppy. Gomez is a great band and as a bonus, the recordings are far superior to other rock bands.
My favorite disk is Bring it On.

Lambchop

A great mix of moody electric guitar, piano and a few other instruments that is classified as country but that surprises most people, as their sound is more like Cowboy Junkies with a male vocal but more involving as far as I am concerned.

I have played their CD called: Is A Woman for 3 friends and 2 of them bought the next day and enjoy it.

Yes PhilJolet i would have to agree with you on Lambchop. I picked it up last week (Is a Woman)and wondered why none of the audio magazine guys have raved about it yet. Super Good. I'll have to check out their older stuff now.

Thanks.
