OT: I must share the awesomeness...

That is Twelve Foot Ninja. If you are a fan of Mike Patton's work, then you should love this. Definitely some Patton influence in there.

I like it better than the other metal stuff you generally post (I'm just not really a metal guy myself). It's interesting though. A little Linkin Parkesque.

 

[SLY]

Its definitely an odd blend of styles... I am just a huge Mike Patton fan (Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Fantomas, Peeping Tom, Dillinger Escape Plan), and they draw a lot of influence from his music, very easy to hear.

Australia has a ton of awesome bands I have never heard of... Here is another.

 

[SLY]

Another awesome band that many of you may not have heard. Much better to listen to when stoned.


edit: lyrics are about one of the band members friends who woke up from a coma, only to kill himself. Pretty fucked up.

This one is in spanish, but still fucking awesome. Their writing is brilliant both musically and lyrically.

Pass.

 

[SLY]

lol, you closed minded fool. It's the musicianship that gets me. A lot of jazz oriented time signatures and scales used. The drumming is insane as well.

 

[TOX1]

lol If I was closed minded I wouldn't have wasted the time to listen to them, now would I??

I thought they licked. Sounded like a shit load of band fags trying to play metal. Sue me.

 

[SLY]

lol, its prog rock shitwagon. I cant wait for the new Mastodon CD, you listen to them all? They're another band that started off real real heavy and now have a more prog metal approach, but much more your style prolly.

 

[TOX1]

ha I wouldn't know. I rarely have the time to research and steal new tunes to jam with.

A by-product of getting older I guess. lol

 

[SLY]

I'll post some Mastodon when I get home. One of my fav bands.

 

[TOX1]

Hell yeah. Thx.

Jeff are you an At the Drive-in fan as well?

 

[KillerVee]

You should listen to my friends ridiculous band. Hell Fire. The funniest part is that they recruited their singer from a mariachi band!!

2:30 - 4:30

 

[KillerVee]

Or I suppose you could listen to their actual demo...

Jeff are you an At the Drive-in fan as well?

I was a big fan back in H.S. They are pretty kick ass. You?
