What is the greatest band you just discovered?

Asked by Rarebear (25192points) June 4th, 2016

I just discovered the band Big Big Train. Fantastic English prog band.

Here is a bandcamp link to their latest album that came out last week. Wassail is my favorite song on it.

Gunship is pretty great. The videos they make are fantastic. Fly For Your Life.

@Rarebear Big big train is reminiscent of Genesis…cool tune. I am stubborn and rarely latch onto new bands but Winery Dogs totally rocks my world….seeing this live for the 3rd time at the end of the month!

@cruiser funny you should say that. The lead singer was in the running to replace Phil Collins.

@ARE_you_kidding_me You are the second person in 3 days to tell me about that band.

Huh, they’re somewhat obscure.

Been a Shakey Graves fan for a while now. But I recently discovered a new to me song of his Cure What Ails that I’m quite fond of.

Somewhat obscure, @ARE_you_kidding_me? The link you pointed to has over 2.5 million views. I doubt that they’ve all occurred in just the past couple of days…

I have just now discovered them and I generally am on top of metal bands. That song linked is likely getting passed around virally.

@CWOTUS I follow progressive metal bands, I get Prog magazine and I have many different artist, many of them are obscure and I’ve never heard of these guys until a couple of days ago.
