"OBSCURE"
From Cambridge Dictionary
"obscure" - adjective (Not Known)
"not known to many people."

You decide whether the group is obscure or not.
Also, you might want to post a "hint" to help folks guess the band and/or song.

They must have released at least one album.

(my submission)
"He's in a band that just makes noise."
[Hint: "Christmas"]

GUESSES ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!
