Alright, these are getting better. I think i've found my niche.

VENETIAN SNARES is a one-man band from Winnipeg, Canadia. He plays Jungle/Beatcore/Funk and is way too crazy to be uncool. If you can find it, look for the album "Calvacade of Glee and Dadaist Happy Hardcore Poms Poms." it's really amazing, if you're into that Artcore stuff.

ORESKABAND is a sextet of 19-year-old japanese girls who have been playing ska since primary. They played Warped Tour '08 on all 46 dates, which is a first for any japanese band ever. they may be fairly big, but they get points for their skill and their ridiculousity.

BLACK MOTH SUPER RAINBOW needs no more definition than the name. Tobacco, the frontman, is decked out in a frayed gorilla costume and what looks like a bearded Bob Dylan mask, and what with their acid-caked posters and their furry-fans, they do not look like your daddy’s post-rock. They don't sound like it, either. In a watery and robotic voice, frontman Tobacco sings about heavenly bodies and forests and love while the rest of the group pumps out funky, heaving rhythms and blissful analog synthscapes.

(I swear to you, i won't ever blog about a band with over 500k listeners, at least intentionally.)
