Creative and unique metal / alternative

[Ghost Snake]

Hey guys,i'm searching for creative and unique bands,you know,bands who really got a vision and who kick stereotypes in the ass. I can't stand shitty bland music,so i listen just to few but very good bands

Ex. : Tool
Faith No More
A Perfect Circle
Tomahawk
Primus
Helmet
Devin Townsend

The only band that i really dig lately would be Gojira.They kick ass.Also March Hare is one of my latest discoveries (thx to this forum) and the album will be a must-buy

Any suggestions ? Thanks guys

I probably should've posted that Geist video here, actually.

Akercocke, Acid Bath, Between the Buried and Me, Therion

Wow really cool stuff !

Check out Thought Industry's first two albums. The debut is very quirky thrash (Metallica + Helmet + Faith No More gives a rough idea), and the follow-up is violent and progressive alternative/groove goodness.

[SentinelSlain]

Root - Kärgeräs

 

[Skepticism]

Primordial
Neurosis
At the Gates
Isis
Enslaved
O.L.D
Opeth - Morningrise
and check out Slint, although they're not metal.

Atheist

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Bethlehem

You'll either love them or devote the rest of your life to staying at least 100 miles away from them. Try "S.U.i.Z.i.D" and get some genuinely unique dark music down your throat. It'll put hairs on your chest my son.

Unique..hmm..

Agalloch
Akercocke
Atheist
Blut Aus Nord
Cynic
Deathspell Omega (later)
Enslaved (later)
Exivious
Isis (later)
Mastodon
maudlin of the Well
Negura Bunget (I guess later I haven't really listened to their early stuff)
Opeth
Ulcerate

I'm not that into all of these, but to deny that they're unique would just be retarded.

 

[Burkhard]

Atrox (especially "Terrestrials")
Madder Mortem (especially "Eight Ways")
Stolen Babies
Voivod

 

[Krow]

Therion - Symphony Masses: Ho Drakon Ho Megas

You should have specified the sub-genre(s).

 

[cannibal corpse]

Sleepytime Gorilla Museum are really unique. Bizarre avant-garde metal/rock, highly recommended.

 

[Xorv]

I guess wormed. maybe some hollenthon.

 

[Ghost Snake]

Wow lots of nice stuff.
I dig Therion,Neurosis,At The Gates
Atheist is AWESOME !! wow

Sleepytime Gorilla Museum,yeah that's what i'm talkin 'bout man !! Thx for reminding me them,totally awesome band.

As far as sub-genres,i'd say cannibal said it for me,

Bizarre avant-garde metal/rock

 

[Narissa]

Sleepytime Gorilla Museum are really unique. Bizarre avant-garde metal/rock, highly recommended.

YES. they are amazing.

Gojira are pretty good, but hardly unique. It's so easy to point out their most major influences.
