Alright, pimp some obscure/relatively unknown music here (youtube videos exist for these bands...go find them yourself):
Islands -
Return To The SeaExistential Canadian Pop/Rock.
Video you should seek out: "Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby"
Lovage -
Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady ByArt/pop experiment of Dan The Automator, Mike Patton, Jennifer Charles and Kid Koala. Great production (of course), Patton in an understated role and Charles' smoky voice make a disc for sexy time.
Video: "Sex (I'm A)"
Aesop Rock -
None Shall PassGrimy NY hiphop from the master of stream of consciousness. This disc finally shows that Ace can creates hooks and verses.
Videos: "Coffee" and "None Shall Pass"
Bargain Music -
The Magic Is OverFolky/reggae/rock from Long Beach, CA. Josh Fischel has a great, strong voice and it's a shame that this band is kaput.
Video: "Rock and Stone" (unfortunately not an album track)
Slightly Stoopid -
Closer to the SunStoned roots rockin punks. Lots of dub reggae, lots of hip hop, and a dash of punk rock. Fun summertime jams.
Video (tie): "Wiseman" and "Somebody"
Why? -
AlopeciaArt rock with some hip hop influence. Complex and dense, this requires some time to digest. In the end, you'll be glad you did.
Video: "Song of the Sad Assassin"
