Beast by Rabbit Junk - 2015
Oh hell yeah! Another Rabbit Junk fan!
Solid song.
Have you heard their song called Power? it’s one of my favorites.
Oh I’ve heard them all, they’re like my favourite band.
From NOTAM of Wind, a 1997 hot air balloon sim for the PlayStation that didn’t have to slap this hard.
I’m looking forward to playing all these tracks at work today.
Please - Flashlight (2024) https://youtu.be/sSkcsuv_A8I
John Butler, Ocean - 65m views isn’t all that hidden but I’m sure there are a lot of people who haven’t heard it
Playtone - Sleep on Sunday (2006?)
An excellent song that I first came upon downloading a demo album from
download.comback in the day when they hosted music albums. I can’t find anything about this song online anymore except for this YouTube upload and in my personal mp3 archives. If you know more about it, I’d love to hear it!No Money by Wild Ones 2017. This song is really good but the whole album just has this cohesive vibe that I wish more people knew about.
Crazy Fuckin’ Robot Body by Snowblood [2020] https://g.co/kgs/T1jQWzG
Maybe ‘gem’ is a bit of an overstatement (depending on your level of musical snobbery 😋) but I stumbled across this song/artist through Spotify at one point and ended up really digging it/them. They have another song I’d give honorable mention to as well, ‘Freaky Freaky’ I think is the name.
These certainly aren’t what I’d call ‘masterpieces’ or anything, but they’re fun songs I enjoyed and you might too if you can listen without thinking about it all too hard
I like this little known gem called Anthropocene by Samsa, I like the message of how even tho we fucked the planet up, we can still do stupid shit together.
Cuntry Boner - Puscifer (2008?). This was a silly side project from the frontman of Tool (Maynard James Keenan). Maybe not a “gem” but it definitely is hidden and the song pops into my head roughly once per week.
Puscifer is still around and is currently the most active of his projects. This song is an outlier in the discography.
The latest full studio album Existential Reckoning is fantastic, check it out! Actually I think I’m going to put it on right now as I get ready for work :)
The Fear - Ben Howard [2011]
Wisely & Slow - The Staves [2012]
Bad Things - Milky Chance [2017]
Release Your Problems - Chet Faker [2014]
Nameless Path - Marcus Foster [2011]
Andy Stott - Violence (2014)
I found Moccassin years ago, can’t really remeber how, that’s the only album they ever made (to my knowledge), it’s from 2006 and it’s amazing. I’d say it’s psychedelic rock as genre, and the whole album is very interesting.
ASG is another band who, in my opinion, has a lot of hidden gem. It’s a stoner rock/metal band, and while their faster/heavier tracks are good, I find these two giving me chills everytime I listen to them
Big Trouble - Mamalarky - 2020
Trippin Like I Do - Blackfeet Braves (2011). They changed their name to Mystic Rabbit for releasing their first album but I don’t think they ever found mainstream success. This is a really good 60s revival band. I think their first LP as Mystic Braves suffered from being over-produced but their older stuff as Blackfeet Braves is all sensational.
