I recently came upon treasure trove of rarities by the band Earthsuit. You've probably never heard of them - they're a little-known genre-hybrid that many people just can't handle. They were discovered at the Cornerstone festival several years back - when a guy from a then-unknown band called P.O.D. decided to announce to his fans that he loved these guys and would make an appearance during their set. Shortly afterwards, they were signed to the normally-boring Christian pop record label Sparrow, where they released one hell of an album - Kaleidoscope Superior. The album was a bizarre mix of rap, pop, rock, techno, and a few other genres on some of the songs (hints of trance, hip-hop, jazz, folk, celtic music, and other unexpected twists were in several of the songs). It's almost funny to think that the album came out in 2000 - before Linkin Park and P.O.D. made their take on the rap/pop/rock sound famous. These guys are better than either of those bands - but they only released one proper album. To be fair, there are two newer bands that were started by Earthsuit's old members - MuteMath and Macrosick. Anyway, you can listen to a good deal of Earthsuit live material, indie material, and rare material at this site. Share the love, buy their CD.
