They're an avant-jazz outfit that seems to have been a fan of some RIO music.

My bad they are here. I don't know how I missed them.
Anyway, they're good. You should check them out.

They are here, I added him/them under Ellipsis (a mistake perhaps?)  Very angular, disjointed and dissonant music; I listen to it only when in a specific destructive mood  |

That's why I didn't find them. A google search put me in my place though.

Sounds pretty good based on the samples on their Myspace.

Isn't it strange how a company like Altrock still thinks it can market new CDs by unknown bands without offering *any* song samples. The website are so primitive, it's like a timewarp to the early nineties. It's quite ridiculous when it's so easy to create a Youtube channel and upload a few sample tracks.

You should explore a bite more the interweb: I could name a dozen of label websites, from jazz to death-metal, without any sample songs. And there's better than Youyoutube (Bandcamp, anyone?) By the way, in the early nineties, I think most of the labels promote their records by some good ol' press campaign. Thinking about AltRock, I wonder what kind of bands we would see at the Tritonales. Too bad that Aranis is not likely to play in Paris... |

To Mr. SaltyJon,
Korekyojinn's Tundra kicks ass. Thank you for recommending this album, I wasn't sure whether I should go for it or not. As you can tell, I did. That is all, carry on. |

I'm glad you went for it, and I'm glad you think of it as highly as I do. |

mine arrived yesterday along with the Koenji dvd
is it only me or the new Koreyojin sounds like a 2nd generation cassette ? I felt like he was making big progress with the sound in his releasessome of them (Le Silo 8.8 and Angherr Shisspa ) even sound quite good of the last few years until this came the sound has an almost claustrophobic effect |

I absolutely adore them! "Control and Resistance" is a 13 [out of 15] for me, "The Nail That Stands Up Gets Pounded Down" a 12, and they're both looking at moving up... |

Many bands that I've never heard of. Aren't Panzerballet some sort of wacky metal-fusion?

I think I saw them live on Arte Lounge (a late show on Arte). I wouldn't judge a band on ONE song, but the said song wasn't very good: it sounded like this band intended to play some jazz-metal stuff, but with just a very tiny, little knowledge of metal and an unsure approach to jazz. |
