Bands to try out. - carbon_psycho - 27-01-2010
We all know sometimes lots of indie/moderately popular bands go unnoticed by most people..
So just in case you came across a nice original song in a movie/at a concert/etc...
Just share them here (youtube links), so we could all listen to them..
IMPORTANT RULE:
- The bands should not be a small time local band, they should have a website/wiki page.
