| Mimsy's Underappreciated
Albums, that is. While I'm still working on my (no doubt) future maligned mainstream list, here are some albums that don't seem to get the love they need around here. | | 1 |  | Celeste
Morte(s) Nee(s)
French screamo that has track names from hell.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/52423/Celeste-Morte%28s%29-Nee%28s%29/ | | 2 |  | Nesseria
Nesseria
BM influenced grindcore (also French, I believe). I've been whoring these guys out since last year, and a few users seem to have caught on. | | 3 |  | Plebeian Grandstand
How Hate is hard To Define
Really chaotic metalcore. Heard these guys through a Throatruiner Records sampler (same with Nesseria).
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/50080/Plebeian-Grandstand-How-Hate-is-Hard-to-Define/ | | 4 |  | Rikets
All American Death Cult
Styles reviewed these guys a while back and I'm sorry I took so long to get around to listening. It's more Industrial metal than Nu, somewhat along the same lines as Dry Kill Logic's last album.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/53571/Rikets-All-American-Death-Cult/ | | 5 |  | Ninjaspy
Pi Nature
Freaking spastic music from three brothers (think ska meets grind). One of the more versatile vocalists around.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/41883/Ninjaspy-Pi-Nature/ | | 6 |  | (sic)monic
Somnambulist
Speaking of insane vocalists...This guy is a beast, if not for his execution, then simply for his range. | | 7 |  | Twelve Foot Ninja
New Dawn
Another band I try to whore out as much as possible. This album really channels its inner Faith No More.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/39277/Twelve-Foot-Ninja-New-Dawn/ | | 8 |  | Shaolin Death Squad
Intelligent Design
And while we're on the topic of sword-wielding Asians...well, here are some white guys that play experimental metal and wear masks. | | 9 |  | Sydonia
Given to Destroyers
Somewhat similar to the above, but with much less experimental material to be found. Try the song "Tongues" and decide from there.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/29927/Sydonia-Given-To-Destroyers/ | | 10 |  | 40 Below Summer
The Mourning After
Nu-metal that tries to steer away from the genre's cliches, and succeeds for the most part.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/11842/40-Below-Summer-The-Mourning-After/ | | 11 |  | Anacrusis
Screams and Whispers
Really awesome progressive thrash.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/19584/Anacrusis-Screams-and-Whispers/ | | 12 |  | Believer
Sanity Obscure
^^^ | | 13 |  | Bullets and Octane
In the Mouth of the Young
Sweet punk-influenced hard rock with almost a hint of Americana thrown in here and there.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/10468/Bullets-And-Octane-In-the-Mouth-of-the-Young/ | | 14 |  | Eleventh He Reaches London
Hollow Be My Name
Post-hardcoreish screamoish awesomeness that you should go get right now. Do it.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/33680/Eleventh-He-Reaches-London-Hollow-Be-My-Name/ | | 15 |  | Hum
Downward is Heavenward
Really good alt rock, thanks to redsky for this one.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/14439/HUM-Downward-Is-Heavenward/ | | 16 |  | Hypno5e
Des Deux l'une Est l'autre
Another awesome French band, this one a more progressive metal band. Words don't do them justice.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/44689/Hypno5e-Des-Deux-lune-Est-lautre/ | | 17 |  | Minora
Imago
A very solid alternative metal release. Thank you to bloc for one of many recs of great bands. | | 18 |  | Panzerballett
Starke Stuecke
Jazz metal with influences from everywhere. They go from covering Smoke on the Water, to spastically (is that even a word?) shouting German, to Death metal segments. Not something that should be passed up. | | 19 |  | The Shizit
The Shizit
digital hardcore of cors
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album/43342/The-Shizit-The-Shizit/ | | 20 |  | Unjust
To Lose a Name
Another bloc rec, and like the last one this is really good alt metal. | | 21 |  | Woe of Tyrants
Kingdom of Might
Melodic dm with a beast of a vocalist.
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/33878/Woe-Of-Tyrants-Kingdom-of-Might/ | | 22 |  | Schaliach
Sonrise
More awesome melo death. This was previous band of the guitarist/singer for Extol. | |
Emim
10.18.11 | Major props to Vooligan for a lot of the Aussie bands on here, e.g., 1, 9, and 14 | Trebor.

10.18.11 | celeste is so good love that crushing sound they got. | Emim
10.18.11 | yeah I love celeste, though I still need to listen to their earlier stuff
check out numero dos too then | sniper
10.18.11 | i think i have it in my library with no plays, i'll give it a spin. celeste sounds the same all the time pretty much, but morte(s) nee(s) has the cleanest production/best art so you're all set. | sniper
10.18.11 | except that was way off-base | KILL

10.18.11 | Anacrusis. Yeah.
Also, their albums are free, which is awesome. | FruityCatOfDoom
10.18.11 | have heard none of these | Fugue
10.18.11 | Styles gonna luv u for 19. That and Anacruisis are cool, really need to check out 1. | Emim
10.18.11 | "I feel I must continue to not love these as much as you feel I should, I'm sorry my friend."
I would definitely listen to the ones you haven't heard, but then again I love all these so I'm a tad biased.
"anacrusis believer fuckin m/"
m/ m/
"have heard none of these"
Get on it! At least 1, 14, and 16
"Styles gonna luv u for 19. That and Anacruisis are cool, really need to check out 1."
If you like Anacrusis, then you should like Believer. And if you like one, you should check out Nesseria. | theacademy
10.18.11 | sup mims | Emim
10.18.11 | listening to amaranthe m/ | sniper
10.18.11 | CAN'TSTANDJA | Emim

10.18.11 | Heck yes | Zorak
10.18.11 | CHON NEEDS RECOGNITION | Emim
10.18.11 | I'll listen to it if you listen to one of these you haven't heard. | Zorak
10.18.11 | it's a deal. | Zorak
10.18.11 | I shall listen to 18. sounds very interesting | Adabelle
10.18.11 | Only heard 1 and 2 but they're both really good.. | Emim
10.18.11 | Awesome, as soon as I have the capability to, I shall listen to Chon. | Zorak
10.18.11 | you will not be dissapointed | bloc
10.18.11 | Haha, I remember listening to 17 and 20 long ago and was like, "I hate this, but Emim will like this." | Emim
10.18.11 | It's the production, isn't it? | bloc
10.18.11 | Kind of, I think it was the fact that the guitarists were using Marshall amps and I know you like that so... |
