Red Fang
Red Fang is the formation of long time friends and collaborators Bryan Giles (Last of the Juanitas, Party Time), Aaron Beam (Dark Forces, Lachrymator), David Sullivan (Party Time, facedowninshit, Shiny Beast) and John Sherman (Party Time, Bad Wizard, Trumans Water, All Night). Unleashed on New Year's Eve of 2006 in Portland, Oregon, Red Fang stormed out of the gates, introducing a sweaty, seething basement to a new kind of unforgettable fist-pumping, beer-chugging rock music.

Colossamite

Rather than relying, as most heavy metal bands, on guitar distortion to produce an intense sound, Colossamite instead often relied on very loud "clean" (undistorted) guitars, played dissonantly, in conjunction with vocals that were screamed rather than sung. Songs featured jarring shifts in tempo and mood, with the overall sound being extremely raw, heavy and often slow..." Taken from wikipedia
This is one of those bands you either like or you don't. With me it was love at first listen. This music is so captivating. Beautiful and ugly at the same time, it's like a dream and a nightmare all together. If you're into weird/smart stuff you should really check them out.
The EP is very good but more linear. More easy listening. I recommend listening to it first as a preparation for the album, which is pleasantly disconcerting. By far one of the most geniusly composed albums I ever heard.
