Yea, you're right about that, but that's mainly because there just are so much black/death/goth/whatever metal bands around. Pretty much half of the fan population is in a band. Which is all well and good, it keeps the scene alive with the occasional jewel amongst the imitators, but you can't expect the casual fan to keep track of every single band, that's just impossible.
And Slackerboy, if you want to check out this kind of music, you won't find it on radio. Unless you're very lucky and find a station that plays it, which I have never been able to. I suggest running a search on the web for a couple of the bands mentioned and see if you can download some MP3's.
