What qualifies as "balls" in your book?

Squarepusher? actually when it comes to downright electronic balls, I sacrifice the prog and go straight for some Crystal Method or Paul Oakenfold.  ------------- http://www.myspace.com/altaic" rel="nofollow - http://www.myspace.com/altaic ALTAIC "Oceans Down You'll Lie" coming soon |

Dol Ammad and their album Star Tales.
They aren't here yet but have been cleared and I will be adding them soon. -------------  |

We have electronic elements, and we're progressive... we have no balls, though.  I'm sure I'm beginning to sound like a broken record to many  ...
but if you haven't heard Ozric Tentacles, check 'em out. They're high
energy rock with loads of synth and sample layers. they're more
psychedelic than metal, though.------------- Pure Brilliance:

Sorry Aaron,progressive electronic is not my forte,but Dol Ammad is the only band I could think of.
They are slightly cheesy,I admit. ------------- |

Squarepusher's more avant-electro-acid jazz, so that may not scratch that itch for you, then. Hmmm, I'll think on this more, and get back to you. ------------- Pure Brilliance:

At risk of sounding monomaniac; I think some Residents Albums would fit the "Balls" requirement. The titles are:
1.- 12 Days of Brumalia. 2.- WB:RMX. 3.- Mole Show. Off course, they are listed as Avant prog or something like that, but they are very agressive and their latest albums are definitely oriented to electronic as it is perceived today. And 12 days of brumalia is a Masterpiece of mix resources. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

This is a new band and it isn't really psychedelic, but its loud, electric and as ballsy as a metal head (in the sense of energy and pompousity of course). Oh, and they are an instrumental band. 65daysofstatic -------------

maybe some ideas here? I think I understand the 80's-90's NO BALLS electronica! |

^ What does this list mean? For an agressive electronic "trip" I would recommend "un rêve sans conséquences spéciales " by HELDON (a mix of industrial, chaotic sounds and hypnotic electronic patterns) -------------

ok if you don't touch the progressive electronic page...because this band 100 % belongs to the metal zone (in term of musical influences, artwork...) -------------

you know what, i was just thinking about it again, and maybe the Ozric Tentacles are sort of a good example of what i am looking for, but more space and less rock

  Ozric Tentacles is what everyone is looking for - they just don't realise it yet.------------- http://www.last.fm/user/BobGreece/?chartstyle=basicrt10">

honestly, i kind of think the Ozrics are sort of kitchy, but still pretty good
i also think something along the lines of the Cosmic Jokers' Galactic Supermarket would be fitting, but it needs to be darker

Well, you're entitled to your opinion but I don't see the Ozrics as being kitchy. For me, kitchy would be http://www.lordi.fi - Lordi . ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/BobGreece/?chartstyle=basicrt10">

hahaha, i hate those type of bands, ok, yeah, now that is kitch i don't mean it in that way for the ozrics, there is more integrity there than Lordi, i just feel like they are making music for the sake of making music, not really anything you have to look too deep into

^ Why, because they don't have lyrics or vocals? Some would argue that instrumental music is the purest form of music. I forgot to look into my collection for you last night for more recomendations.. I'll definitely get back to you, I promise! ------------- Pure Brilliance:

i think what i am looking for is an all electronic version of Ash Ra Tempel's first song from their s/t, hahaha
or someone that uses the synths similar to amon duul II
or a heavy version of Affenstunde (sp) (although just a little less random)
As far as the Ozrics go, i guess i think their music is aimless and doesn't create any good space landscapes for me (my sister calls it "space cat-walk music", and i sort of think she is right), don't get me wrong, i think they are the best space band today, but i think that is just commenting on the poor state of psychadelic/space rock, I kind of think that Hidiria do it better than them

Early Tangerine Dream - Alpha Centauri and Atem. Quite
thundering and apocalyptic at times. Fantastic albums, not like their
later melodic style. (perhaps also their debut Electronic Meditation) ------------- Over land and under ashes In the sunlight, see - it flashes Find a fly and eat his eye But don't believe in me Don't believe in me Don't believe in me |
