The failings of capitalism, music deprivation
Growing up, I wasn't given many options for discovering music. I had what was on radio, MTV, & VH-1. I never quite made the connection that the bands I saw had more than the few singles that were promoted & released on their own, or for a video. I wasn't deprived from music (dad got grumpy about swears, though.) It never dawned on me that I could acquire and experience a whole other side to acts that I enjoyed, the side the labels didn't tell me about

@Motodrachen I've been wanting to listen to 2112 since it got mentioned in Ready Player One (i'm the only one of my friends who actually liked the book without reservation) Guess I'll have to actually get it now.

@kelseyhusky “Inhale, Exhale” by Rollins Band. I can’t easily find it separate on YouTube but it’s on Come in and Burn, which is an awesome album. Rollins Band - Come In And Burn [Full Album/HQ] https://youtu.be/I3dJw11kLZs via @YouTube

@kelseyhusky I remember you like the Beasties, this is my favorite track of theirs; Namaste (2009 Digital Remaster) https://youtu.be/djbD3rROa2Q via @YouTube
Also I come into all of this late in the game; I missed out on a lot. Are you also looking for more recent or niche stuff?

@Leucrotta Mostly just looking for the stuff that was really good but never got heavy/any rotation. Cause Geek USA is very different from the Smashing Pumpkins that was portrayed in their image in their videos and singles that got airtime.

@kelseyhusky here’s a favorite STP track Stone Temple Pilots - Still Remains https://youtu.be/nsCGdFnyabw via @YouTube

@kelseyhusky if you’re looking for 90s specifically? Cub, Bikini Kill (esp the first two albums, Reject All American), Soundgarden’s Down on the Upside, obviously I’m gonna go on about REM, and King Missile. Kyuss was kicking around at the time, Welcome to Sky Valley Full Album https://youtu.be/9j3XdBdsUUI via @YouTube
