hip hop - Grand Master Flash
drum and bass - Jon B, (both of these are what me mate Pete likes)
rock - Wow... where to start? Underground eh? here're a few I'm listening to recently, not all underground tho...
How about....
Faith no more - Old School rock
HIM - Um... rock?
Lamb - Very laid back chilled music. get Goreki if you can.
London After Midnight - Deeeeaaaaad good gothy stuff.
Switchblade Symphony - wierd stuff
Razed in Black - cybergoth/industrial-ish
VNV Nation - cybergoth/technoish
Mortiis - Bizarre... I dunno, darkwave?
Sisters of mercy - Wooooo! 80's dark shit
Type O Negative - mmmm.... proper dark and morbid.
any more suggestions?
Also get some stuff by:
~Aphex Twin (although you've probably heard of them) Songs such as Window Licker, Come to Daddy, Fuck, Flim, etc.
~Kruder & Dorfmeister (Speechless is good)
~DJ Shadow (I love Midnight in a Perfect World by them.) You can get soem good tracks from Entroducing, tis a good album.
~Mr Scruff get Shanty Town (whale fish song) hehe. Mr Scruff is nice to chillout to. Download stuff from their album Trouser Jazz.
any more suggestions? maybe goign into the even lesser well known?!:yes:
How about Ak 1200 for some d&b? Songs such as Drowning (which I love) Carbonite, Cum with me, Dreamz.
Also forgot to mention Coldcut. I'd recommend getting some stuff by them. Get Revolution, its wicked; samples the voice of some well known people

I quite like
The Mad Capsule Market
they are a good japanese band but they failed to make much of a mark in europe still good though. one great song is Tribe.
Deja Voodoo from Back of the Y are good
Drowning Pool have some good songs dont know how large they are in the uk
btw Creeper, the majority of that stuff is like, famous, Faith No More? underground? they were like one of the most important bands in the world 10 years ago.
GINGA, Drowning Pool actually got quite big here, they like, got a single in the top 40.
Yep! More about DJ Shadow here
Other bands I'd recommend would be the Pixies (well known among indie fans but not generally - 1987 - 1991), British Sea Power (new band) and Interpol (also new.
They did the theme for "Angel"
"Atmospheric, haunting music-yet they can also rock the roof off-this is a band that can't miss." Entertainment Today
I URGE you to check out this song The Red West - Don't Fall In. trust me on this one, please try it, and post what u think of it if you do listen to it.
Also check out Blak Twang and Roots Manuva ( who was nominated for the Mercury last year so isnt really a lesser known artist), a couple of UK hip hop acts.
And to whoever said otherwise: Grandmaster Flash is hardly an obscure act
