Came here to post Behold the Arctopus, Psyopus, Ahleuchatistas and Cheval de Frise, and was beaten on all, but allow me to second them because they all rule really hard. Anyway I have a bunch of weird poo poo to share anyway! These probably wouldn't be my first picks but they are all very unique and cool bands anyway. https://www.myspace.com/edgeinband - I'd recommend "The Marlboro Man is a Douche Bag" Ed Gein is ridiculous, really the only 'technical' thing about them is their rhythms and speed (i.e. more dissonance and power chords than arpeggios and dynamics), but they are definitely some of the more challenging structures I've heard... plus they're just intense as hell. Also all 3 members are vocalists + instrumentalists. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaKLll7X7g4 John Zorn's Naked City is debatable, but it shares a lot of chaos and unpredictability with math rock/metal and puts it into more of a jazz/grind fusion thing.. and if you don't like weird poo poo like that you're probably not looking at this thread. Plus, Yamatsuka Eye from the Boredoms, on vocals. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udP8Nc00R_0&feature=related Ok, I wanted to point out Orthrelm, and this video isn't them, it's the guitarist's solo project, Ocrilim, which is essentially the same thing with a drum machine in place of a real drummer. Really hard for most people to get into, as there is very little harmony whatsoever and it is basically series after series of piercing 32nd notes with little to no repetition.. but to me that's awesome. Also, they have an album called OV which, on the other hand, is super repetitive but incredibly fast, which lends itself to an almost droney trance-state if you can get into it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJdSEmq-xVM&feature=related Here's Sleep Terror, a now defunct band who was pretty much a one piece but went through various drummers for live shows. Really fast metal with a lot of weird parts and snarky jazz interludes here and there.
