Music you probably never knew about

After hearing some of the posted music in the post about VG music, I was reminded of my thrash / heavy metal years (Yes! I had long hair and thought I was cool) and one particular band who I loved for their outlandish music and original ideas. It's a pity they all but disappeared, as some of the things we talked about in class were their scene (classical metal) and many of their ideas have been copied since (fusing metal with rap etc etc)

Anyway I leave you with a couple of examples of their crazy antics (and maybe you'll understand why my parents had so little patience for my taste in unusual music :-)  )

 

Scatterbrain's Down with the ship

and the excellent Don't call me Dude

P.S. If anyone tracks down any of their classical metal PLEASE let me know! ( I had it on cassette and anyone over 15 knows what happens to cassettes after some time)

and finally here they are in their early days when they were known as Ludichrist
