Dog Fashion Disco - Absolute nonsense, they split up however.
The Alter Boys - Lead singer of DFD and ex lead singer of mushroom head, real head trip but kind of heavy.
Unified Culture - Cleveland local only produced 1 cd to my knowledge. A collaboration of artists.
Sky Eats Airplane- Techno/Hardcore(literal hxc) it's entertaining.
Murder By Death - some of the albums are based on some book series, amazing, makes me feel like a cowboy. Vocals are like neo-johnny cash.
Collide - Darkwave/dark electronica, entrancing, suitable for alot of situations.
Acid Bath - Alot of you black metal guys know this band, however even if that's not your thing they have some very soft dark acoustic music.
1200 Mics - very interesting psy trance.
Ween- alot of people don't know about this band at all, but those who do would say that's an insult haha. Best drug album "Pure Guava"
Wolfsheim - Beautiful male vocals over electronica.


heres a band that I think everyones heard but never really recognized...
The Eels - In Shrek, but an amazing indie band. Mark Oliver Everett is a musical genuis, let alone a normal genius. Supposedly his father was also the guy who developed the theory that the universe was constantly expanding. Soft, simple, wild, deep, abstract.

I used to listen to them back in the day.

And Jack Straw boom-box is tight, you go to a lot of festivals?

CRYPTOPSY

Flo Mounier drumming on Whispered Supremacy is beyond blast beats and grind.



Extreme Drumming
"Emaciate"
"Cold Hate, Warm Blood"

HYPER-BLAST BEATS!

the album None So Vile on the Swedish label Wrong Again Records. This album
took the extreme and technical elements further than the last outing and is
now considered a benchmark of technical death metal. Jon Levasseur's riffing
was complex and difficult to pull off at high speeds, yet had a very catchy
tone to it throughout the album. His guitar leads consisted of very fast yet
complex shreds, with obvious influence of guitarists such as Chuck Schuldiner,
which were played in usually short bursts.

Cryptopsy's next album, Whisper Supremacy, was released on Century Media
in 1998, and featured Miguel Roy on second guitar. It took Cryptopsy's style
further, incorporating some jazz and fusion elements, quite evident on the
song "Cold Hate, Warm Blood".
