So who's heard of these guys? -->Absinthe Junk
It's the band of a long time member here and sometime moderator Junoblairb, artist behind the popular and fantastic Star Crossed Destiny .
You can listen to some of the tracks here:

It's an interesting sound. My fave by far is "My piece of Junk", It took me a while to realise that it must be about her groovy car... It's got a nice, energetic, distorted, fairly heavy sound. I love it when women get all shouty when sinnging ^^
Some of the other's are quite reflective, but I ordered the CD a while ago so I'm waiting to listen to them all properly when I get that! -I don't want to spoil it till then.
Anyway, I think it's pretty amazing and cool that a DD member has a CD out, and it's really quite good stuff :)

Oh man! I totally never saw this! Found it on a google search - how ironic can ya get?
OOH! And if anyone is on MySpazz, come be our friend! http://www.myspace.com/mypieceofjunk
Thanks so much Ozone for making a post about it. Those who haven't checked out the group, it's a cool new sound. We try to fuse world instrumentation with prog rock and usually the results are pretty damn trippy cool. :D
Whoo! We're sending out your CD tomorrow Ozone! Hope you diiiiggg it!

I like the mix of heavy influences and more popular styles. You guys mix it well and do a good job of balancing it. If I ran into your music at a show I'd have to make sure I wrote down the name to look up later.
Plus, I can always dig a chick singing who doesn't have to rely on that flyleaf screaming kind of BS for every track.

No joke right? I love to do me some metal screams but I like to think them more of decoration. I spend way too much damn time on my lyrics to have no one be able to understand them under screaming. O_o
