Hüsker Dü. One of those bands that was never huge, but a lot of people influenced by them got huge.
They were mentioned a couple times in the Trash Theory video about REM that recently dropped… maybe worth a watch for you
Trash theory is how I found my most recent new to me band IDLES. The Tangk album is pretty rad, sorta Radiohead meets retro punk and something else.
Along the same lines is some bands called king crimson and the melvins
Melvins absolutely.
King Crimson? The first prog rock band? I also happen to like prog rock though not much of Crimson specifically grabs me(I like a few songs.) But I have a hard time thinking of them as similar to Hüsker Dü.
I meant that they were more influential than famous.
