Your fave obscure bands

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Don't know if they've been mentioned, or even if they're considered obscure, but Velvet Acid Christ do it for me.

Great name Dave. I think its more important to have a great name and concept than to actually be able to play.
When I was a teenager we formed two great bands; Tuxedo Massacre and Inflatable Fruit. They really were majestic.

...and they can play too. Well, they can press buttons - banging industrial techno-g*th of the highest order.

If I heard that a band called 'Inflatable Fruit' were playing a gig, I'd definately go and see 'em.

Ever thought about a comeback tour?

I never managed to get Nightmare Death Syndrome (it was the late 80s) off the ground but we rehearsed a few times. Better still, our t-shirts were legendary. Maybe I had Mr. E's ethos before he did?

my old band were called "graveyard dirt".

it was done in that birthday party/cramps kinda sense of humour ;)

our tee shirts were a pastiche on "les miserables" tee shirts. same picture of the girl but the title of the tee shirt (is that caslon antique font) said "miserable f*ckers" :D :lol: :notworthy:

last time i spoke to my old bandmate he was doing solo stuff (with huge string sections) under the monicker of "frank stern and the hate unlimited orchestra" :notworthy:
