Do any of these ring a bell for anyone?

Here’s another one that I love:

John Croslin was the main man in The Reivers (AKA Zeitgeist, before a conflict with another band caused them to change their name). This was one of the earliest and IMO best alt-country bands. I’m not sure that they’re obscure enough to qualify for this thread, but - if they are - they go to the top of my list.

If they don’t qualify, Croslin’s next band "Fire Marshalls of Bethlehem" surely does. Their one record wasn’t at the level of The Reivers catalog, but it was good in its own right. Basically, my belief is that Croslin belongs on this list. He’s an immensely talented and undeservedly obscure musician, IMO.

arcam88,

I am a big fan of Hero jr. 
TKO was a great band, the lead singer sounded like of Roger Daltrey.
Because of Mother Lone Bone we have the very unique "Temple of the Dog".
Great list.

@arcam - compliments on your "arcane" taste.  The only ones from your list I've even heard of are those below.  I marked the ones I've actually ever listened to....

Meat Puppets
Monster Magnet
Mother Love Bone
Porcupine Tree - listened
Spock's Beard - listened briefly
Screamin Cheetah Wheelies
The Good Rats - know these guys from back in 1970/71 on vinyl.  Listened to it a lot back then.  Have their first on CD now.
Velvet Revolver - Slash's band after Guns N Roses, I think.  Never listened.  

Do check out A.A. Bondy solo also in Verbena.  Worth a quick listen.

Good point nutty!
I forgot to mention Temple of the Dog😎
