Electric artists have been playing acoustically since the beginning of recorded music. Usually, the slower ballads and the prettier mellow songs by rock artists were accompanied by acoustic guitars. This week we are celebrating bands that can re-imagine their songs with acoustic instruments and still rock! We are pulling the plug… and gasping for air guitars!

What’s this InObscuria thing? We’re a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we discuss the FORGOTTEN. Mtv started a series in 1989 called “unplugged”, and almost every mainstream relevant act started producing acoustic albums or versions of their songs. This week we listen to some artist that you may have never considered as having acoustic interpretations of their songs.

Songs this week include:

Classless Act – “All That We Are” from Welcome To The Acoustic Show - EP (2022)Minus The Bear – “Knights” from Acoustics (2008)The Pretty Reckless – “Only Love Can Save Me Now” from Other Worlds (2022) Backyard Babies – “Th1rt3en Or Nothing” from Silver & Gold (2019)Flyleaf – “Fully Alive” from Flyleaf (2005)Machine Head – “Darkness Within” from Unto The Locust (2011)Sway – “Stood” from Kawfee Talk (1998)
