I has a sad why no one's mentioning Animals as Leaders in here yet, it's one kickass djent band formed by Tosin Abasi
Meanwhile, check out another Prog Metal band called Blotted Science, they're not necessarily djent but their instrumental riffs sounds pretty similar and their technical prowess are so amazing. They had releases thus far, 'Machinations of Dementia' and their latest EP 'Animation of Entomology' both are excellent albums that I like
And here's an underground Prog Metal with a sound that could make ou got hooked so badly, the name's Sieges Even~
Listen to the album Sophisticated and Uneven, they had quite strong feel of 'djent' here I think~
WAAAAHHHH! I CAN'T BELIEVE I MADE SUCH A THREAD WITHOUT MENTIONING AAL! >A<
I'm so ashamed... ;~;
FUCK IT! Imma go on with the update!
