Well-known, yes, but do you realize just how excellent they are? As musicians especially.

Satan is real.

Esham - Hardcore / Acid Rap

Thanks to him, we have what is known as rap-rock, rock-rap? But don't get scared! It is nothing like Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, and such.

Lagwagon - Punk-Pop

Of all the skatepunk, punk-pop groups out there, these guys are the best / most musical.

Donovan (in the USA) - Folk / Pop / Rock

This is for you citizens of the USA. LISTEN TO DONOVAN. Dylan is not the only artist to sing folk music!! Amazing, I know.

The Dodos - Indie Rock

Who said the drummer takes up space?

Dälek - Underground Rap
Website - allmusic - Last.fm
Praise be the men called Dälek.

The masked supervillain.

Eminem - ignorance = Braille Brizzy!

Check out the song by his grandson, Hank Williams III, called 'The Grand Ole Opry (Ain't So Grand)'. Oh, and listen to ANY song he has ever written, performed.
