Yawn, had enough Amy Winehouse, Vampire Weekend, and Jack White? Let's talk about the really out there music.

The band doesn't have a record deal, but they self-promote and produce albums.

I used to help run a record label called Audio Savant that put out a lot of weird stuff like Especially Likely Sloth, Formloff, and the Poops (some of these are available on iTunes still I think.
Another fine "obscure" band: the Flying Luttenbachers (available oniTunes and MySpace)

I like something called "The Moldau" by some guy named Smetana. Evidently it's supposed to tell a story about floating down a river. Some of the music is "calm" and beautiful when the river is supposed to be calm. There are rapids, and even a wedding that takes place on the shore of the river. Absolutely georgeous music. Well worth listening to.

There is a band I listen to called Zap Em Dead Bartholomew. Almost as goofy of a name as Roto Rooter Good Time Christmas Band. They are also available on iTunes and myspace.

If you love hifi recordings....
Best acoustic music recording I've heard.
Blue Coast Collection
Blue Coast Records
SACD 5.1 (which is amazing), SACD stereo and CD layer. You won't find it on itunes or anywhere as an mp3.
It's pricey, but it's worth every penny.

everything written was incredible, so I bought it... they were right!

I still love Queen. Listen to the vocals done by Freddie Mercury,the harmony of "Who Wants To Live Forever","Friends Will Be Friends",and of course "Bohemian Rhapsody".

A record I really like is called Titus & Ross. A CD is available I understand. Beautiful haunting harmonies, very catchy lyrics. If you liked the early works of Simon & Garfunkel, I think you'll like this one. Another more widely distributed one I like is McGuinness Flint. "The Capitol Years"
