| Underrated/overlooked
Albums that, for the most part, I and not too many other people really like or love. Also a shameless plug for my last review. Save #9, these all have less than 50 ratings (I think) and at least one review. | 1 | | Lo-Fi Scorpio Noir
Kickass industrial that's free, so you have nothing to lose. See the review if you want more info (yeah no shame) download: ://www.leonstemple.com/lofiscorpio.html | 2 | | Gama Bomb Tales From the Grave in Space
Imagine if Bruce Dickinson went insane, joined a Slayer cover band, and wrote nothing but sci-fi and mythological lyrics. Download for free: www.earache.com/gamabomb/ | 3 | | Sarah Fimm Red Yellow Sun
The voice of a goddess fronting a new age/folk/pop hybrid. The EP before this was available free, but I can't find it anymore. (Does mediafire require an account?) Her previous material was trip hop and also rules. | 4 | | Mike Hale Lives Like Mine
Typical but great singer-songwriter stuff. Download for free: liveslikemine.suburbanhomerecords.com/ | 5 | | Anacrusis Screams and Whispers
Awesome thrash with a non-generic vocalist and progressive influences. You can get ALL their albums free at: anacrusis.us/media%20files/MP3/Albums/Albums.html | 6 | | Sights and Sounds Monolith
No more free stuff, sorry. This sounds like a pop punk band channeling Thrice's Vheissu with post-metal influence and a bucketload of epic. | 7 | | Rob Dougan Furious Angels
Yeah, I'm mentioning this again. It's cinematic trip hop meets movie soundtrack, with a deep, gravelly voice on top. | 8 | | A Fine Frenzy One Cell in the Sea
Somewhat indie-ish pop singer-songwriter with an amazing voice. If nothing else, Google Image her moniker. | 9 | | Death Cab For Cutie The Photo Album
Yeah, it has more than 200 ratings. But Plans has more than twice the number of ratings, and this is much better. If Transatlanticism makes you gay for Ben Gibbard and you haven't heard this, get it NOW. | |
