Hi fellow progressive melomaniacs,

This is not my first post but I'm still 2 day old here. I live in Montreal Canada and I am 32. I have been playing guitar and bass for 17 years. I also play drums and keyboards.

I've been listening to music non stop since I have been given an Iron Maiden cassette when I was 4. My tastes have expanded greatly since then though. While I can appreciate at least one song in most genres, what I prefer is "extreme metal", jazz fusion and progressive rock & metal. A couple examples of my favorites would be:

Heavier:
Anomalous
Theory In Practice
Blotted Science
Redemptor
Octopus
Behold The Arctopus
Spawn Of Possession
Direwolf
Drottnar
Liquorworks
Trepalium
Dodheimsgard
Peculate
Irreversible Mechanism
Robots Pulling Levers
Meshuggah
Fallujah
VI-X
Gorod
The Helix Nebula
Vildhjarta
Journal
Torrential Downpour
Wormed
Job For A Cowboy
Obscura
Gonin-Ish

Less heavy:
Spiral Architect

	Hey! I'm glad to see another huge fan of experimental f**ked up extreme metal!! WOOo!!! In fact, I'm even happier that some of your "less heavy" bands are too heavy for a lot of people here. :) I actually have recorded 2 albums with Colin of Dysrhythmia/Behold the Arctopus including one album with his drummer from Zevious, Jeff! And taking guitar lessons from Kevin currently. Haha. Those guys are talented insane people. ALSO>>> HOLY CRAP>>> Gonin-Ish I do not know ANYONE that knows this band! That makes me so happy! I freaking love Gonin-Ish. They are SO ahead of their time! It's just insane! Edited by Smurph - April 29 2015 at 12:35
