So you know how everybody gets into a band or artist that's more than just a soundtrack-creating band/artist after they hear them in a videogame?
Let's admit it, we're cool and love music, but we sometimes find awesome bands because of games - might not even discover them from games, but they make the game so much better from just being present.
I'll say that the two bands that stand out to me (Besides the obvious Jonathan Coulton of Portal) have to be
The Offspring - All I want (Crazy Taxi)
Tsunami Bomb - The Invasion From Within (Disgaea)
Both brought so much to their respective games. Offspring pretty much became the sound of Crazy Taxi - so much so that I always think of the game when I hear the song even though I heard it before playing it.
Tsunami Bomb brought so much to Disgaea during the battle it's played, and have spurred me on to be a massive fan of their music. (You should check them out too!)
