10 Underrated Bands You Should Be Listening To

Toria Clarke

Music is one of those things that’s always changing. Personally, I love listening to new artists and learning about different bands because it allows me to diversify my music choices and allows me to listen to a little bit of everything. A lot of times, you’ll hear someone say “oh I knew this song way before it was popular,” and it makes you wonder what kinds of other songs an artist may have that could be as good as the ‘popular’ song you hear on the radio. If you’re looking to expand your music horizons, here are a few artists that are a little less popular that I think you should give a listen to.

The Mowgli’s

The Mowgli’s are an American, alternative rock band who have been around since 2010.

Royal Teeth

If you’re looking for an indie/pop kind of jam, Royal Teeth will have you covered.

Rooney

Rooney specializes in alternative and indie rock and has often been compared to late 1980’s bands, like The Beatles.

The Brobecks

If you’re a fan of Panic! At the Disco, you’ll probably like The Brobecks. Why? Panic!’s bassist, Dallon Weekes, is a part of The Brobecks and has written a good portion of their songs.

Local Natives

If indie rock is your thing, Local Natives has some great songs you can jam out to.

Miike Snow

The Swedish indie pop band has been producing some hits since 2007. I still listen to their song ‘Animal’ and get pumped when it comes on.

The Griswolds

These goofy Australian dudes are great when you’re in the mood for some indie rock music to chill to. Be on the lookout for their new album, which should be released soon.

Tame Impala

Tame Impala’s music is different in the fact that it’s a lot of different noises and not a lot of lyrics. I think their music is great to study to or just relax with.

Leon Bridges

Bridges is a gospel and soul singer, but not all of his music is centered on worship. He has incredible talent, and I feel like he needs some more recognition.

Bad Suns

Want to jam to some rock? Bad Suns is your band. With most of their music being inspired by 1970’s and 1980s post-punk bands, you really can’t go wrong.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
