What is the most obscure band or artist you are a fan of?

Bubble Puppy is pretty obscure for a band that has made a huge influence on music. They were a psychedelic rock band from Texas in the 60's that never had a hit anywhere other than Germany. However, they were a big influence on German kraut-rock, where the beat to their songs "Hot Smoke and Sassafras" and "Lonely" were used by German psychedelic bands like Neu!, Can and Kraftwerk. \n\nThe beat, which was later called the "motorik" beat by German musicians (it sounds like a car driving down the freeway), is ubiquitous in genres such as punk rock, post-punk and indie-rock. It has been used by artists as wide-ranging as David Bowie, the Sex Pistols, Throbbing Gristle, Nirvana, the Psychedelic Furs, the Pixies and even DJ Shadow (most of whom have probably never heard Bubble Puppy).\n\nSadly, the band is all but forgotten today despite that they were actually a very talented band.

Hmmm, this is a very good question. If I personally had to pinpoint one group in particular that should be recognised, it would be Linkin Park. They have jumped tremendous heights in a very short period of time, influenced alot of people with their lyrics, and are just downright good musicians. I owe them alot because their overall essence is absolutely amazing. It must be a pleasure to know them. I am honored that such young men like themselves are indeed worthy of my attention. They've gotten a bad rap at times, but I say that's crap. They deserve better.
