Into the Everflow is a favorite of mine too. I saw Psychotic Waltz live on the Mosquito and on the Bleeding tour. Great shows in a very small venue ( maybe 150-200 people in the audience). The band were totally stoned but played like a dream. Buddy was such a sight on a stage back then. Dancing his weird dances and joking with the audience. They played lots of songs from the first two albums at both concerts. I have a really great long sleeve from the Mosquito tour that I purchased at the show ( very worn and with holes but I still got it) with the moon smoking a pipe. Really great psychadelic picture. I also purchased the first Darkstar album at one of those shows. A unique band that deserves much more attention and praise.



agreed.  Lucky you with the concert experience and t-shirt!  Wish I could have seen them at least once.... I worship them!



more stuff:

Drottnar:  Technical black metal!  and I mean technical!  sort of like Extol's "Synergy" album

Another band that should definitely be considered for the list on this site!


and this obscure covers download (completely legal) with tribute to Emperor, Ved Buens Ende and Arcturus)

Others that may have gone unnoticed:

Egoist;  excellent stuff in the shifting, proggy Meshuggah vein (although more interesting than Meshuggah to these ears)

http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=85552

12-tone doom-death metal:  Ehnahre:

http://www.myspace.com/ehnahremetal

their latest album, "the man closing up" is phenomenal!

I wrote with Stanislaw from Egoist not so long ago to get his permission to download and review the unreleased Dead Egg album. I´ve written a review a couple of weeks ago. A really nice and talented guy Stanislaw.

It´s a pretty good album but not perfect IMO. You´ll have to ask Stanislaw himself were to get it. I don´t have it anymore. He seemed happy about my interest in his music so he will probably be happy to hear from you too.
 
Here´s my review if you´re interested: http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=227879

Cloudkicker released a 5 song ep this year called This Map Is Not The Territory which is extremely good.

I'll add all your recommendations to the PMT chart later today,and I thank you very much for making them.
 
Please remember that the PMT has a ton of suggested bands and a lot to vote on and clear.It takes awhile,but I promise you your suggestions don't fall on deaf ears.Plus out of a 6 man team only like 3 people do any actual work so that makes it tougher.

I have that EP Assaf,it's pretty good.Looking forward to the new album!
 
I proposed them to the PMT like last year.I think they were rejected.

@ Jody:

I think with the new Gwenybleidd album a reconsideration might be in place, but we'll know more when it's out.


Also, to add to my other post form above, what do you think of these guys
