It ain't easy, bein' cheesy.

Mine-
Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy; Hipocrisy is the Greatest Luxury old(ish) school rap
Strapping Young Lad- City super-heavy metal
Heavy Water Factory- Author of Pain industrial
Videodrone- Videodrone industrial
Follow For Now- Follow For Now rap/metal
Thought Industry- Outer Space is Just a Martini Away progressive, hard rock

Any and all Michael Hedges albums. The most genius, though widely unknown guitarist of all time. I'd take Hedges on an acoustic any day over Satriani, Vai, or Johnson, but sadly Hedges passed away a few years ago in an auto accident and much of his catalog is getting very hard to find. Saw him a number of times at the Newport Music Hall and was absolutely amazed every single time.

Another favorite album of mine is Snog, Remote Control. If you listen to any techno-industrial, NIN, KMFDM, God Lives Underwater, etc ... you have to get Remote Control, a greatest hits album of sorts by Snog. The disc is brilliant.

Over the past month, I've bought almost the entire back catalog of Therapy? CDs off of eBay ... about 14 CDs for under $50. :biggrin: Not too many people listen to Therapy?, which is a shame. One of the best post-punk, rock bands of the 90s, lost in the tidal wave of grunge, and displaced for 10 years when A&M was purged in the Seagrams merger. If you bought anything by _any_ mainstream band in the early 90s, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't own Therapy?'s 1994 release, Troublegum.

RC Mob!!!

Hmm. I'll try to name some that are pretty rare but are good: Sleepyhead, Star Ghost Dog (that is for you Sushi), Chavez, Damnwells, Deconstruction, 1000 Homo DJs, Fretblanket. . .

I used to get tons of CDs when writing for a music mag and have plenty completely obscure ones that SUCK. One in my desk right now is the IOs - supposed to review it but it isn't worth it. . .

Anyone own any Prong? Great lifting music, lots of power cords.

is Danzig (sp?) obscure?

No, and neither are the Misfits or Samhain. Danzig has multi-platinum albums, nearly two dozen music videos, many of which were in regular rotations (just about every single from Mother up to Cantspeak), and has even had MTV contests named after him ...

A great CD! Their second album, Death to Traitors, is very good too.
