Need New Non Mainstream Music

[ThoughtCriminal]

Need some new shit I've never heard of...

I don't care what genre, as long as it's not whiney mall punk, scream shit, or death metal, or dragonforce-ish shit.

looking for some uniqueness...

[Lord Gold]

Listen to Mewithoutyou. They're unique, and one of my favourite bands ever.

Or listen to Protest the Hero. They're amazing.

If you're not into that, then try Coheed and Cambria.

If you don't like that, try Horse the Band.

EDIT: Just try them all, actually.
