26. OK, here's an obscure one

Firetown.

This was the band that Butch Vig and Duke Erikson played in before they met Kurt Cobain and Shirley Manson.

The debut album, "In the Heart of the Heart Country" is a wonderfully catchy piece of jangly roots-pop, with hints of American country rock, British Invasion pop, and jangly college alt rock.

Vig and Erikson went on to form Garbage, but Firetown is a completely different creature. The "Heart Country" album is, unfortunately, long out of print and damn near impossible to find.
