If you're up for Japanese music, I've been loving on Maximum the Hormone, especially their most recent album Buiiki Kaesu!! If you want it, I can upload it on mediafire for you.

Haven't really been into Jap stuff since I grew out of my anime phase. Thanks for the recommendation, though!

It's actually pretty good metal...Well, sometimes it's metal, they really can't choose a freaking style and it changes mid-song sometimes. Koi no Megalover demonstrates this pretty well.

For metal I really like GWAR, Strapping Young Lad, and if you can dig instrumental Buckethead does some really weird stuff that isn't always metal but it's infused in his style :)

You may already listen to those I don't know.

:D do you have last.fm? if your already on my friends then I suppose I will appear QUITE the fool.

I'm a fan of Gwar. Haven't really heard much Strapping Young Lad, but a friend of mine has been trying to get me to listen to them. Will check out buckethead.
If I'm not on your LastFM, add me: athoria

After playing "Sleeping Giant" as a bonus track on Guitar Hero 3 and having it stuck in my head due to its awesomeness, I've just obtained Mastadon's "Blood Mountain" album. I'm only a few songs in right now as I write this, but so far it's a pretty kickass blend of riff-driven metal and melodic phrasing. Worth a look-see - I can upload if needs be.

Three steps ahead of you, got the whole discography :) Sleeping Giant is a brilliant track, agreed!

Nice. This track I'm on now ("Capillarian Crest") makes me see why their official website has trippy psychadelica-inspired artwork... this is just a crazy psychotic mash of guitar work, and it's fantastic. Looking forward to hearing more of their stuff. :)

If I hear anything else new, I'm keeping this post in mind!
