I had a CYCLONE TEMPLE tape. I think it was called "HATE THEREFORE I AM." Cool thrash/power groove like CFH era PANTERA. Also I remember the Crumbsuckers from NYC. What about Law & Order from NYC?

What about Exhorder? Anyone remember them. I had there 2nd release "The Law" and I think they had another called "Slaughter In The Vatican". They were thrash/power groove, and one article refered to them as "Pantera on Crack". I think they have broken up or have formed other bands. Cheers.
Exhorder were like Pantera, yes. They broke up along time ago. There were rumors of a reunion and new CD recently, but I'm not sure if they panned out. I don't know how obscure they are; I've heard them, though.

Hey Texas Fried Criminal, Maudlin of the Well kick major ass...I actually know their guitar player - Greg Massi, he use to work at the local Guitar Center here. They are all really down to earth and awesome people...also their music is really crazy and awesome.
Some of the obscure bands I listen to:
Invocator - Technical Thrash
Acid Bath - Purely awesome doom
Goatwhore - Great Black Metal
The Year of Our Lord - Alright melodic BM
Betrayer - Isreali Deat/Thrash
Substance for God - Israeli Doom
Sleepless - Israeli experimental band
Cirith Gorgor - kick ass BM
Necrophagist - Insane death metal band from Germany

Is Exhorder any good? I have never heard of them before and I've been reading from a lot of people here at UM that Pantera kind of ripped them off.
Pantera ripped them off, but I think Pantera did the style better. Vulgar Display of Power is very similar to what Exhorder sound like.
The Exhorder singer guy is now in Floodgate. Although they might have broken up I have no idea. I don't like Floodgate at all, and I don't remember what they sound like, but I have one record and I just described it as boring.

Everon or Ozric Tentacles. Both two DAMN AMAZING bands that everyone should know but for some odd reason don't. i do wonder why.... you'd think word would spread lke wildfire once someone would have heard them because they are so good.

they're death-thrash along the lines of Carnal Forge or The Haunted.. nobody seems to know they exist, though. Great stuff, check out their album Subliminal Fear.
