From facebook page ( http://www.facebook.com/borderlinesyndrome" rel="nofollow - https://www.facebook.com/borderlinesyndrome ): Borderline Syndrome is a rock band from Athens, Greece. Formed in 2010, the band is influenced by the majority of music genres, trying to blend everything under their musical style. Having enjoyed equally musicians like The Dillinger Escape Plan, Tool, Radiohead, Bjork, Ulver, King Crimson and Miles Davis, the band’s music varies from modern extreme mathcore to Radiohead-like pop along with elements derived from Greek traditional music. Believing that it is time that people stopped listening to specific music genres and perceive music as a whole, borderline syndrome mean to express a variety of feelings as has to do with complexity, tension or lyricism. From melodic, simple easy-going songs to complex, dissonant heavy tracks, the only aspect that borderline syndrome try to keep common is musical quality. Mixing and mastering procedure of the band’s forthcoming album “stateless” has just finished and borderline syndrome are currently seeking a record label and a management & tour agency. http://borderlinesyndrome.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow - http://borderlinesyndrome.bandcamp.com/ I had a quick listen to their album on bandcamp and eclectic is the first thing that comes to mind (some metal, crossover and avant in there but eclectic stands out IMO). http://progfreak.com/Borderline-Syndrome-156089.html" rel="nofollow - Progfreak entry I would be happy to do the addition when (and not if) cleared   |

Thanks for the suggestion! The Radiohead and Bjork influences are pretty much to the forefront and I think these guys would easily fit in Crossover, but then you get tracks such as: Although they themselves set out to eschew musical labels, I agree that their blending of various styles does seem to distinguish them as eclectic.
