Third World Chaos: Grave in the Sky

Real and raw metal out of Chakrapath, Nepal. I honestly don't know if these guys are still around, but even if they are not still together in this band, I hope they are still playing. Great musicians!

Noyes: Nuisance

Check out young alt/punk/garage band Noyes. The production quality is a little rough, but they've got a great combination of melodic vocals and super crunchy guitar and bass riffs and pounding drum licks that just don't quit. You can download their EP for free from Bandcamp.

I'm enjoying this sludgy, rough-cut group's no-frills sound. I think I'll go get me some more!

The Gourds: When Wine Was Cheap

The South: Second Coming

Emperors Among Kings: Hopeful Eyes

Bright Eyes: Every Day and Every Night (Full Album)

Great Indie Rock band from Nebraska.

~DJ Blooming Psycho~

That Poor Girl: Live Performance at The Boneyard

Music from Kent, Ohio band "That Poor Girl."

~DJ Tempest~

Magic of Jovial: In the World

This is a young band with the courage to speak out about current world issues. Such a refreshing change from the kind of tripe that gets featured at the VMA's...not that I'm mentioning any names!

Sarpantium: Provocation of an Eternal Odium

Revived are sentiments towards your brethren 
Coercing emotions have set your vigour Crown 

Exodus, envisions of Kur 
Provocation to salvage light 
Adorn as she waits, martyrdom will ingress 

Odyssey of Inanna 
Odyssey of Inanna 
Exodus, envisions of Kur 

Ascendancy, envisions of Kur 
a plight which shall not rest 
For the gods will trust in your 

Ascendancy, envisions of Kur 
Provocation to salvage light 
Adorn as she waits 
Martyrdom will ingress in suffering 

Ascendancy, envisions of Kur 
Provocation to salvage light. 
Adorn as she waits 
Martyrdom will ingress 

Odyssey of Inanna 
Odyssey of Inanna 
A plight which shall not rest 
A plight which shall not rest 
For the gods will trust in your 

At the gates she stood arrayed in splendour 
With symbols of endowment 
Sullen empress 
Enraged the vehemence 
Sullen empress 

...I proclaim Ereshkigal 
...I proclaim Ereshkigal 

Revived are sentiments towards your brethren 
Coercing emotions have set your vigour Crown

Avenue C: A World Too Far

I'm afraid I don't know anything about this band. I stumbled across this piece. It's pretty amazing! I would like to find out more. They have a page here.

Protomen: Father of Death

Lifetimes of Regret: Otra Ciudad Distruido Por Mis Manos

The 1969's: Double Wide

I was looking for something else but found this very cool Garage Band instead. Dig it!

The Times Playlist

Here is a playlist for you from The Times. It's a time machine to the early 1980s. This band did not get much airplay in the U.S., at least not in the part of the country where I was living. Maybe in New York or L.A. or places like that. I honestly don't know.

Dub Trio Playlist

If you are the kind of person who likes electronica, dub, and instrumental tunes, Dub Trio is a band that you will want to check out. They tend to have a heavier sound, although there is a lot of variety in their style. Here is a playlist featuring this talented act. Perfect for writing or doing art or editing by, if that sort of thing happens to be your bag, Baby.

Puressence Playlist

Me and all my wild and crazy friends from the KHEL 666 blog and Facebook page like to share great playlists. Enjoy this one from Puressence! This is a band that deserves more exposure.

Puressence: Casting Lazy Shadows

Take a listen to this beautiful song.

Wallachia: Skjold Mot Guds Lys

The Family: Nothing Compares 2 U

Unjust

Hi KHEL 666 friends. Here is a playlist from a lesser known band, Unjust. Also contains other lesser known bands with a similar style. Great alt rock for you!
