RushBoingo Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 No doubt in my mind, it's Animal Collective. Brilliant mix of electo-acoustic music.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM-Fml9dsQkhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxhaRgJUMl8 I don't know, they seem pretty prevalent to me. Also, "Today's Supernatural" is one of the most annoying songs I've ever heard in my life.They had one stint of critical praise with Merriweather Post Pavillion, but otherwise, its hard to find them represented anywhere near the mainstream when they have fantastic song writting quality and quite a few catchy hooks for the developed ear. Also where did the attack on Today's Supernatural come from? I personally love it (after giving it a bit of time), but thats irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Toto are underrated! I have never, ever come across such an amazing band who gets so much flack! Seriously, they are brilliant, and yet they always get ridiculed or labeled as naff. Heavily underrated. One of the greatest pop bands ever, I find them far better than Queen or Journeym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with a number one hit under their belts, Toto really does not fall into that category. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclonus X-1 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Curved Air... a prog-rock band most notable for how they incorporated violin into their sound, but here's a nice little acoustic number: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3aSY0MNvTs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 The poppy hits are probably better for you anyway. I enjoy some myself. Saw them live 3 times in the early 80's. The Infinity album and era is best in my opinion...... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox4000 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Thing about journey, IMO is their a wonderful singles band. Their albums as a whole never really gelled for me. Queen's is in my top five bands. So there, lol Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Not Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I like many Queen songs individually, but it takes effort for me to sit through an album of theirs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with poppy cheese. And that's precisely why I love them. That and they can play. Having said that. Much as i love em. I would not lump them with the Dan either. That's another band that to me is on a different plain as well. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
