LNBS: Most underated bands, who ya got
There is a ton of really good music out there that goes unappreciated by most people because they stick to a certain genre. Here is your chance to enlighten us all by turning us on to your favorite lesser known bands.
Here's a few of mine Blind Mellon: Sleepy house, Change The Black Crows: Wiser Time, She Gave Good Sunflower Theory of a deadman: All or nothing, Wait for me |

If we were back in the heyday of Myspace, I'd have at least two dozen posts for you... but the extent of my new music repetoire would probably rest here, with Greta Van Fleet

Their newest album is much better than their last from a technical perspective, the lead guitar is clearly trying to capture his inner Jimmy Page. |

But the band itself just had that love for old school blues rock, then they added that singer... and it naturally morphed into a Zep II thing, even if they kinda try to downplay it during interviews Compared to what passes as 'rock n roll' these days, I love them... their hearts in the right place for sure The coolest part isnt that they're doing it, its that there is still an audience for great rock like that... it gives me faith in our youngsters |

You're exactly right, their heart's in the right place. It's not like some cheap imitation. They're pulling from the same blues rock influences Zep did, and they do a great job. Just coincidence in the vocals |

Jimmy page has a rif that he integrates throughout several of his solos in several songs. Kind of a building arpeggio scale. If Greta Van Fleet can come up with their own but similar thing, they are on track for legendary status I googled it to see if there's a name for it, but it might be one of those things the average listener doesn't have the ear to pick up on. But it's kind of his default solo theme, that he varies and improvs |

Ditto. Crowes are a remarkable band. Have you checked out Magpie Salute? I really like their sound.
