This one spawned from the Melvins forum a couple years back and led to some surprising name drops. The premise is as simple as it implies. Bands from your home city that you're not that into or even embarrassed by. You're free to elaborate further should you so desire.
To start off, using my home city as an example?
My Morning Jacket (Decent first album but all in all bland indie rock.)
Houndmouth (Though actually from New Albany right across the river they get cited as a "Louisville band". Jumped on the Americana bandwagon early on and then turned into an equally bad indie/hipster act.)
Wax Fang (Weird indie music with cringe vocals.)
Flaw (Louisville in the late 90s - mid 2000s was a hotbed for metalcore but Flaw was a band that was pretty bad even back then. The singer is also a pretty terrible human being.)
Plenty of lesser examples but those are the biggest names off the top of my head. Have at it.
