What are some bands from your area that are getting you excited at the moment? Preferably, please list bands that have music recorded online so that we can all join in on the discussion instead of just live show anecdotes (though those are fine too!)

These are all my damies, like Hep Kat, I'm mad biased due to friendship.

hardcore that's influenced by Sargeist? wut

Their guitarist basically said he had no clue what "melodic hardcore" was when the original bassist approached him about the band, so he just thought of Sargeist style riffs and played them in a hardcore structured manner.

hmm, that's a novel approach that's pretty cool.

Dude's an amazing guitarist.

Here some of his old projekts (same drummer in both):

tech death (vocalist was a total loser)

well the point was more that he can play any style he damn well pleases

and i did vox in dat tech death band :(

sorry no thanks for me. i don't care about shit getting crazy in death metal, i'd rather listen to the tried and true formula of super fucking fast blasts, mid-tempo evilness, and crushingly murderous slam grooves.

This band from Orange County called Terminally Ill is pretty sick. They're rap/punk. Crunk rock is what they call it. They're pretty funny and they kick ass live.
