and one of mine:
Eisbrecher ( A German band that's a bit like Rammstein)

I know those guys. They were a Surrey metal band callled Caustic Thought originally.
You know Caustic?.....Wow I thought I might have been the only one around knowing that....
Well you must have been kicking around either Surrey or the Vancouver metal/punk scene at the time. I saw them a few times, got drunk with them at rehearsals and played in a band with their original drummer.

We have prolly crossed paths then...remember Witches Hammer, BNU, Blasphemy?
One of these bands (VdGG) isn't really "obscure", but they're definitely forgotten, and my favorite band so they deserve the publicity.
I'd have had thousands of other bands to pick from, but decided to go for 2 Canadian bands that fit the intent of the thread better : they definitely are obscure.
You can give them all a listen over on these places :

Witchs Hammer--definitely. To tell you the truth, I don't remember much. Occassionally venturing out to Vancouver for a show at the New York threatre to see line-ups of about ten bands and being hammered by the second band. Good times.
Byron, from Caustic, went on to do soem neat stuff and the drummer they got after (Bob Wagner) has done pretty well too--Econoline Crush and Shocore.
Jill Barber - yound folk artist from Nova Scotia (this album's a little easier for me to get ahold of). Very nice sound, and she's been doing very well.
Ah yes, and if we're going to mention Jill Barber we should also mention David Myles.
