I like your music taste Unacceptance. If you like Cynic and Atheist, maybe you've heard of Martyr and Augury? Really good, but less well-known, technical death metal bands from Canada.

Nasum kicks ass too. I'm listening to their song "The Smallest Man" right now, it's such a blast.

 

[Unacceptance]

I know Martyr, but not Augury. Might have to check'em out. That was just bands though. I also listen to a lot of underground rap and jazz.

So what do I know...

Its no problem at all evanescencefan91.

Math rock is a genre and I can't explain it better than what Wikipedia has written on it.

Whereas most rock music uses a basic 4/4 meter (however accented or syncopated), math rock frequently uses asymmetrical time signatures such as 7/8, 11/8, or 13/8, or features constantly changing meters based on various groupings of 2 and 3. This rhythmic complexity, seen as "mathematical" in character by many listeners and critics, is what gives the genre its name. Musically, math rock derives from other rock genres, including rock, heavy metal, progressive rock, and punk rock.

Here is an example from math rock wizards, Battles.

[Orsino]

Feel like I'm gatecrashing the thread as this is my first post out of the new members forum and I wish I could list cool bands like you all, but here is my 2 cents

Andrew Bird (lucky enough to see in concert in November, although I was at the back, big crowd *shudder*)
Cathy Davey
Ben Folds
Devics
Flaming Lips
Ane Brun
Elliott Smith
Emily Jane White
Kaki King
Nick Drake
Rufus Wainwright
Sufjan Stevens
Wilco
The Decemberists

I love the sort of slowness and dream like quality of them all

 

[Phyxi]

Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Cradle of Filth, Static-X, Mushroomhead, Dog Fashion Disco, Polkadot Cadavar, White Zombie, Rob Zombie, Powerman 5000, Anti-Flag, Karnivool..

 

[Minus]

The Decemberists

I have been wanting to hear more of them.

 

[Bodom]

Turmion Kätilöt, Ruoska, Rammstein, Children of Bodom, Kalmah, Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Satyricon, Zonaria, Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Diablo, Apocalyptica, Behemoth, Lamb of God, Divine Heresy, etc... more along those lines. I also listen to industrial when I'm in more of an upbeat mood, or drunk- either works

 

[Minus]

... Children of Bodom...

Figured that one had to be in there

 

[Van Hooligan X]

metallica, gorillaz, prodigy, nickelback, LP ad LB to name a few

 

[Vacuo]

ohh man. too hard to pick one favorite.

Loads of grind so the locust, crimson curse.
crust: skuds, iskra, man the conveyors
thrash:total ******* destruction
(early)hardcore: gorilla biscuits, sub-zero, agnostic front, bulldoze.
and limited heavier deathcore stuff, like cattle decapitation and tteotd.
i'm starting dig alot more experimental-punk stuff, like Warsawwasraw and the Mutators.
