Twelve Foot Ninja

[Oblivion Ocean]

I heard about these guys the other day on Metalsucks and I can't stop listening to their music. They are an Australian band with a great sound. It is a little hard to explain, but I guess a good point of reference to start with is Faith No More (both in musical style and the vocalists Patton-like tone). Also I dig that like fellow Aussie's Voyager them seem to have a great sense of humor. I think you might be able to get a physical CD from their site. I "acquired it", then bought a legit copy off of Itunes (did not see it for download on Amazon yet).

Check out these couple of songs (give the first one at least a minute, at first it looks and sounds like nu-metal nonsense, but you'll see)

$16.99 is a little steep nowadays, but I'm being a Grinch.. it's good stuff, but the price has to come down, I wouldn't spend $16.99 on a new Priest album unless it came packaged with a shirt or a dvd.

 

[Heavenly Call]

The music was interesting, but I don't think it would hold my interest too long. A bit too repetitive in the choruses or something. The videos, however, ARE FREAKING AWESOME!!!!! Thank you TFN for putting some thought into the videos! Those were both very fun to watch!

Great post!

Music is pretty good, but with the videos it's just brilliant. Cracked me up, very entertaining thank you.

Not my cup of tea, but cool vids.

 

[Harvester]

That first video/song was brilliant.

 

[Azrael LenGraden]

I gave them a listen just cause I liked the name but it didn't do much for me.

 

[Oblivion Ocean]

Their new album is probably one of my most anticipated album of the year, especially if the first song is any indication.

I have Silent Machine and pledged to the new album. Not all of their songs strike my fancy, but the ones that do--not to mention their hilarious music videos--can't be denied.

I keep giving these guys chances, but I keep finding that their eccentricities are just a bit too strong for me. They're hilarious and damned good at what they do, though. And their videos are pretty much always awesome.

 

[Oblivion Ocean]

Up near the top of my most anticipated albums of the year.

 

[Mardoch]

I liked that quite a lot.
