Nightwish - quite popular in Europe, but virtually unknown in the US. They're brilliant. </p>
<p>Apocalyptica - a group of guys playing metal on cellos. What more could you ask for?

<p>totally word; epica is also pretty good if you like nightwish... (I <em>heart</em> Scandinavian music)</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm gonna agree with effulgent and nbachris. I can't stand people who like finding unknown music just for the cool/'scene' factor and who disown their old music just because everyone else suddenly likes it. I liked Linkin Park back when the were called Hybrid Theory and had nothing but a few mp3s, but I didn't get mad when they went mainstream. I actually thought it was a good thing because the mosh pits at their concerts got bigger and better. But anyways... who am I to deny someone music recommendations?</p>
<ul>
<li>The Birthday Massacre</li>
<li>HeyMike!</li>
<li>Inspection 12</li>
<li>Circa Survive
and for an old spin on a new twist, check out all the Yellowcard CDs that came out BEFORE Ocean Avenue (One for the Kids, The Underdog EP, ect.) because they're amazing.</li>

<p>Sonata Arctica! They're a Finnish power metal group, and I love them to pieces :)</p>
<p>The Shins
Cake</p>
<p>The Velvet Underground.</p>
<p>Some of you have got seriously horrible taste in music.</p>
<p>The Velvet Underground? Really?
It's freaking awesome, but unpopular?</p>

<p>Yeah, compared to ***** that's being posted on here it is. Everybody knows these ridiculous emo bands being posted.</p>
<p>I adore classical music. My favorite "band"--or better known as symphony orchestra--is Vienna Philharmonic.</p>
<p>Gore Gore Girls</p>

<p>Just an honest question here: Can anybody, except for people like Leonard Bernstein, tell the difference between the philharmonics of various cities? I can tell the difference between the Rolling Stones and the Beatles, even if they play the same songs, but the Chicago and the NY Philharmonic?</p>
<p>good point... they all sound the same</p>
<p>dispatch equals loveeee</p>
<p>Yes'm, dispatch is awesome. Also modest mouse, but I hope most of you guys have heard of them. Hmm...What else is in my library...Ah, phish, cake, the flaming lips, elvis costello (a man, not a band), and interpol.</p>
<p>I love Waking Ashland. Dunno if they're "emo" or "unpopular" but in my opinion, they're awesome.</p>
<p>I also love Mae, Jacks Mannequin, Death Cab for Cutie, Rise Against, The Arcade Fire, Augustana, Dead Poetic, Third Eye Blind, Something Corporate, Audioslave, Motion City Soundtrack. Some of them are REALLY typical/popular I know, but I like em :)</p>
<p>Don't know what type of music but I also suggest the soundtracks of Phantom of the Opera & Garden State. All songs on there are amazing.</p>
<p>phish
pretty girls make graves
mogwai
yo la tengo
gardenstate soundtrack
and ani difranco is my goddess...</p>
<p>pretty girls make graves.... i love that name, i hope the music is as good as the name</p>
