Easton Corbin.

Fantastic country singer who I assume most people on this board don't know. I think a couple people enjoy him though.

East Clubbers (electronic/dance) and Rhapsody of Fire (symphonic metal) come to mind.

Oh, and The Magnetic Fields too. Least, I wouldn't expect too many people on Gamespot to know about them...

Talons. I've posted about them a fair bit in music threads so I like to think at least somebody has heard of them (and listened to/liked them)

Seems not many people here know anything about trance/dance and similar music so I'd say that entire genre. >_>

Marques Toliver – I hope he gets the recognition he deserves. Proper talented fella – awesome to see live (he plays with violin and glock) and without hiding behind a wall of effects.

Mid-80s thrash band called Hallow's Eve.

Mid-80s to present prog-pop band named Marillion, and the solo work of their former lead singer, Fish (not to be confused with the jam band Phish).

Colorado power metal band Jag Panzer.

Kayleigh!

Is it too late to say I'm sorry?

Yeah I remember Marilion. A few songs were popular back in the 80s be fore the disapeared back into obscurity. Funny you never here anything about them anymore - I can't even think of one 80s compilation released in modern times that's graced with one of their tunes.... Oh well.

 Can't tell you because then they'd be way too mainstream for me, plus they're hidden in my basement, only playing and recording for me when I feed them.

Not sure about favourite but I really do like the Antlers. Had no idea they released a new album as well. Currently having a listen and so far i think it sounds fantastic.

Example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqgDDxTr7ME

So far a good change of pace compared to the more heartwrenching (in comparison) Hospice album that was basically about a women in suffering of cancer. Loved that album as well though.

They still release CDs, but none hit as well as "Misplaced Childhood" (which featured "Kayleigh", their one and only hit here in the US).

I actually only saw the ~10 episodes or so that are available on Netflix instant streaming. Didn't it used to be on Comedy Central, or was it only available on Canadian channels?

Could be, I know they're power metal, I don't know about about the keyboardist. A modified version of infinity was on the dbz budokai games i believe.
