Bal-Sagoth

Although labelled as symphonic black metal, the band considers themselves as "extreme avant-garde".

Bal-Sagoth's music seem more like narrated stories with funky beats, as band-member Byron Roberts incorporates spoken-word vocals in many of their songs.

Lyrics are lengthy, written in more of an essay-form, dealing with concepts such as ancient battles and wars, to floods.

Quote:

[The Forest-King:]
Yes... I behold now the face of the encroaching foe... Hear my oath! You,
clad in gleaming robes of sparkling saffron, engorged with the mindless
adoration of countless thralls who bend the knee in flaccid obeisance...
'neath thine vestments hides the ra nk stench of leprous corruption! Bring not
thine cursed icons into my ancient realm... your words of untruth shall not be
heard here! My steel is honed and thirsting for your life-ichors... aye, and
with my dying breath I'll spit defiance in your face!

A lyric from the song 'In The Raven-Haunted Forests Of Darkenhold, Where Shadows Reign And The Hues Of Sunlight Never Dance'

My strangest band...

I don't know if this band is strange but it's quite interesting nonetheless. Dirty Granny Tales is an acoustic/experimental group from Greece that combines theatre acts with their music. They play dark-gothic-folk music and use different vocal styles including raspy black metal vocals.

They have lots of releases but not all of them are particularly good, they released some jams they did which are basically just improvised guitar noodling sessions, and they're not very good at all. Quality control has never been Sun City Girls' strongest area, but when they're at their best, they are one of my favourite bands.

Torch of the Mystics is uber good....listened to it twice....reminds me of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and Thinking Fellers Union

all songs by job for a cowboy are pretty sureal and santanistic and rubish but very wierd.

Even though im an Alternative and Black Metal Addict,Dark Psy attracts me like f***
Nine Kinds of Crazy by Frozen Ghost is a really rare/strange track from a s.a artist.addictive =)

Firstly, it's satanic, not satanistic.

Secondly, they're not a satanic band.

Thirdly, there's nothing really weird about them. They're your average death metal band.

The film actor Crispin Glover has always been as mad a snake and now he's made an album:

Hello Forum dwellers. This is my first post on this forum or any forum for that matter. HELLO. If I could vouch for the weirdness of an album. . . . Tiny Tim. . .God Bless Tiny Tim?. . . . anyone? and in some ways I feel a bit weird for picking it over so many actual "good" weird albums. And even weirder that ive heard most of it. :(
