You mean this song "I Am S/H(im)e[r] As You Am S/H(im)e[r] As You Are Me And We Am I And I Are All Our Together: Our Collective Consciousness' Psychogenic Fugue"

Giraffes?Giraffes! has some crazy weird song names haha. I love it.

Auto!Automatic!! is another great band with crazy song titles.

Explore the genre dude. You'll begin to crave it.

Tera Melos was the band that got me started with it.

Some people like vocals. I prefer the instrumental stuff, but love vocals once in awhile too. More accessible.

There are also sub genres to explore. Here's some mathcore.

Be sure to post any cool stuff you find on your "safari"!
 
math rock??

really??

i just hear rock music. the type on indy labels...

a whole new genre??? i don't think we need one.... nice try though....

Heypenny kinda sounds like it would belong here..... they're just a rock band on some indy label... pretty nice songs though...

saw them live at a smaller venue not too long ago.... they're an awesome live act....
 
lol No, there is most definitely a difference.

Proctor and i didn't just make this up ourselves here; its been around for a while now. I would prob. even consider RUSH to be one of the first big math-rock bands. Considering their technical proficiency in terms of musicianship. But, unless its just plain genre-defying, i tend to lump in most progressive music in with "math-rock" because of the intricacy of the notes usually being played. Which you will not find in any chilled out 'heypenney' type band lol

If you listened to all of the stuff we were posting it is very technical and had to have a lot of thought put into the chord progressions and layout of the songs. Unlike four chords keyboards and a monotone singer in college doing keg stands... lol

This band is pure fucking progressive math-rock (probably on the verge of math-core though because of their singer and crusty vibe lol.)

I also went to highschool with the new bassist. these guys have been rockin' it around toronto the last couple of years.
 
im going to say yes, to that first video, because that shit was dope.


And, thanks to that deathgrowl guy, that second vid. was heavier and, i think, deserves a genre with a name more understanding of that lol But either way they both stemmed from the good ol' rock and roll. And i know actual people in both types of bands and im pretty sure they just consider themselves as playing rock.. its def. a nice umbrella term in this context..
 
hell yea... that's tosin abasi. He plays 8 strings, although he only uses 7 in this video. I play too and when I see shit like that it makes me just want to quit haha...
