right, but I wouldn't call them neither forgotten, nor unknown.
It's nice to see them getting some love, that's true.

It’s a way to show other users old new bands or bands that were popular or successful once but not anymore or just music that you never listen but was always there, because most of the people just don’t know lots of great stuff and only listen just the most popular bands.
Did you find something good ? or something that you never hear? then my list it’s work.

Most of the debate here is because we love a band and it hurts to count them as "forgotten", happens to me with TNT for example... but if I where to be objective, yes they are.

Look at it from another point of view: check the bands you still don't know and it's a friggin good experience of discovering.
