Best Bands Nobody Has Ever Heard of

BuckeyeMafia

A Leaf on the Wind
This is a place to post small, unknown bands (probably most will be local) and let others check them out.

I'll start with a COMPLETE unknown, Carnival Arrest

I'd say they're a mix of Punk and Screamo.. Funeral Song is good though if you like any rock at all.

And then there's Strike Anywhere

They play pretty much Punk and Hardcore punk. Listen to Infrared to get a basic feel.
 
Great thread! I had been meaning to start a local music thread for awhile.

There are quite a few good bands in the Cinci area. The two which seem to be on the cusp of hitting it big are Buffalo Killers, and Heartless Bastards.

Buffalo Killers were formed after the breakup of Thee Shams, and are a bluesy three piece rock and roll band. They have toured extensively opening for The Black Keys, and have gotten write ups in Rolling Stone and other national mags.

Heartless Bastards are propelled by the powerful voice of singer and guitarist Erika Wenerstrom, and play straight ahead rock. They have made a big splash at SXSW, and appeared on Letterman last week.

If you have never heard of them then how do you know they are good? /i can understand if you said local bands, or lesser known bands, but if nobody ever heard of them are they really a band? or do they really exist?
