Nope, not a fan of Thrash, or any of these many other Metal labels... I particularly dislike when the "singing" is gargling a raw egg, and it's as boring as Rap can get.  It ain't hardcore to me if it's nothing but attitude.  I just want music with my attitude.  We're all going to be dead a long time.   

I don't particularly like the gargling vocals either. I just like the aggressive nature of the music. I don't listen to much of it anymore, but when I do it's pure cathartic release. It's like hitting a punching bag, I feel fabulous afterwards.

I remember hearing about Liege Lord. I like the track you posted. The vocalist kind of sounds like a cross between Bruce Dickinson and Blackie Lawless to me.

Here's a few metal bands that are pretty obscure:

Forced Entry
Atrophy
Railway
Sword (tips his hat to circus :))
The Exploited
Discharge ( would these guys be called obscure, because they were very influential)
Thunder Rider
Stormwitch
Living Death
i'm sure i could go on and on.......  Wink

Ahh Sword, the badass Canadian band that should have been MUCH bigger. "Sweet Dreams" is still up there for me, as one of the all time great unheralded heavy metal albums. The hard rock/glam metal band that they morphed into called Saints & Sinners were also excellent, if they'd have put out their debut 3-4 years earlier they would have gone supernova. Sword have actually reformed this year and are apparently in the process of writing a new record!

Good stuff.  They are a bit obscure but damn good.

These do it for me:


I'm a bigger punk fan than Metal fan, to be sure.  Love Iggy, MC5, Ramones.  Even dig these guys:
New York Dolls

Misfits

Misfits seem pretty well known now.  Well, maybe not the music, but their merchandise is everywhere.  And most kids I know seem to only know the post-Danzig stuff.  Ah.

Don't want to hijack your thread, FLICK, but I love the NEW YORK DOLLS.  TeddyR  Aside from being offensively grotesque, pushing the envelop with every cliched bad-boy (girl?) characteristic, the DOLLS wrote awesome songs and could actually play.  They kick ASS!!

happy gilmore- I have to admit I was and still kind of am one of those metal fans who looked down their nose at Anthrax. I'm sure they had good stuff and I liked the videos from the Time album when they came on MTV, but I did not see them as being on par with Slayer or Metallica or even like Testament.

I'm the opposite.  I really don't like Testament.  Although, I like Testament a bit more than I like Megadeath.  Megadeath sucks.

What I find especially funny is that Dolls member David Johannsen up and became Buster Poindexter, singing songs like "Hot Hot Hot" and making movies like Mr. Nanny.

Totally agree with you about them not getting the recognition they deserved, Circus. Plus, I'm from Canada, so that's a bonus. They were an amazingly good traditional metal band. I read that Chuck Schuldiner (Death) listed Sword's "Metalized" as one of his biggest influences. That one's my fave also, but Sweet Dreams is pretty great, too. I haven't heard Saints and Sinners, but I can't say I'm a huge glam fan so I'd probably be on the fence with them.
