Your Pick

Name a band / musician that you’re a huge fan of but is not popular to the masses.

May offering is The Birthday Massacre, they have a nice 80’s synth sound.

I am a huge fan of Muse, but they are not as big in the States as they are in Europe, so I am not sure if it fits in your question limits. I also like 90's and early 00's metal and alternative rock bands, like H.I.M., Lacrimosa, Dream Theatre, Poisonblack, and Deftones. Some electronic and new age music like J.M. Jarre and Enigma.

DreamTheatre! So many greats I had forgotten about. Deftones, they hold up well and seem to span more peoples’ music collections than I would think. I’m a Muse fan, I think they’re pretty well known, and when I used to listen radio, they were certainly in the rotation. Thank you for your input!
