The HARD ROCK & HEAVY METAL Thread Continued

 Reubent :  saw them several times back in the mid 70's, great live shows.  Last Days of May is one of my favorites.Used to crank that outside on Klipschhorns back in the day ,lol. Too much aint enough !

Prog-Metal. Check out Manimal. It will get the blood moving!

I agree with  rbstehno . Dream Theater has had some of the better concerts I've been to. Amazing musicianship.

Wow, pretty wild to see thread like this get such a response, this was not the case some time ago. Ok I'm gonna throw a few to the pile.

First - Justin Broadrick  (of Godflesh fame) with his project Jesu. Atmospheric post metal/shoegaze gem. 

Second - Cloudkicker, one man instrumental project from Columbus Oh. With strongish djent influences on early stuff, so think meshuggah but more melodic, later stuff a bit different. 

These are relatively not well known but with quite a following within the people in the know.
