Unusual bandsFlicking through the channels last night I came across the Jools Hollands show featuring the Spaghetti Western Orchestra, what an individualistic band, heard nothing like it before, and it is a tribute to a great series of movie themes.

The Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain are pretty unusual (& good!) if you've ever heard or seen them.
I too enjoyed the Spaghetti Western Orchestra when I flicked onto the Jools Holland Show. |

If you liked them, look up Seasick Steve who has also appeared on Jools Holland a couple of times.
He uses an old $10 repaired guitar, with only 3 strings, and an old wooden box to stamp on as a kick drum. But boy is he a great song writer. I'm sure he's on youtube somewhere. |

Slipknot and Ramstein are both odd as anything. | ||||
| Flipando |
The Mars Volta are pretty weird. | ||||

I like SENOR COCONUT.
Not so much a weird band, as it is latin music, but the concept album that was released where classic Kraftwerk songs were given a latino bossanova makeover, on paper it shouldnt work, but somehow does. Altogether now, 'We are showroom dummies, cha-cha-cha....' Found a couple of tracks on Youtube if anybody is interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr7JDIKpjdk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owtbkbKhBsI Makes me smile - well worth a listen Cheers LC |

If it's strange bands you want. They don't come much stranger than Mike Patton(of Faith No More fame) and Fantomas! I've had the privelige of seeing this lot live! A baffling experience, but a great one all the same

I don't think you'll ever get stranger than Einsturzende Neubaten:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VsIW3M5p1o They use hammers, pick-axes and drills for instruments. Legendary 80s band. |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzE-X73HP5Y I was going to put up their version of The Stones' Miss You, but it was a bit mainstream. |
