Let's see..... RODAN is the biggest. They made one record. spawned 18,038,938 bands and every indie person in the US loves them (myself inclusive...) Slint is the other band..said to inspire rodan...but they put out three records...very early "post rock" whatever THAT label means...... The Vaselines? Over here they didn't get ANY attenion... the short lived Captain America? Ani Difranco has a truly (frightening) cultish following but she's fairly popular isn't she? Mission of Burma are the best band to ever come out of boston... (and I include the pixies as a boston band) and they're relatively unpraised... The Grifters have been doing their thing for a long long time.... Yo La Tengo too....... I've always though Ned's Atomic Dustbin deserved more attenion...:)
I am going to start my radio show soon and perhaps you could all
Its going to be a cult classics show, you know, music that never really made it big but has a cult following ( or should have one). If anyone knows of any really super music new or old, that would fit in this category,
help me. please
mail me, that would be so nice, and let me know what people are missing.
Momus, Monochrome Set, Felt, High Llamas, early Pulp, early Mercury Rev and Flaming Lips, anything on Cherry Red early 80s, el Records '85-'88, Beta Band, Pram, Telstar Ponies...
just thought i'd suggest...
you know i love you...
me too...
