Saw them as support for Dillinger Escape Plan:
Stolen Babies
Don't expect similarities to DEP, the only "thing" they have in common is Gil Sharone drumming for both bands. I would describe Stolen Babies' music as metalized soundtrack to an animated movie by Tim Burton (although they collaborate with a different cover artist, i.e. Crab Scrambly).
Here's the link to the Myspace-page.

Yeah I like them quite a bit. They get some criticism though because I guess some people see them as another band capitalizing on Burtonesque Hot Topic fads.

has anyone mentioned Woods of Ypres yet? I was surprised by their latest, very similar to Wolves in the Throne Room, but with a more "rock" sound and great clean vocals. Well, maybe closer to Agallogh than WITTR, but very good, melodic pagan folkish black metal.
Oh, I listened to To-Mera's "Delusion" straight through, and was completely BLOWN AWAY!! I was reminded of early Dream Theater, when they were still new and "fresh". Fantastic jazzy vocalist, incredible virtuoso's performances, great production (sounds better in headphones). This was the first album I was able to listen to STRAIGHT THROUGH start-to-finish in a very long time. It was absolutely gripping. Almost an hour long and it just flew by - I wanted more!

Woods of Ypres are nice. Really nice. Like Bergtatt mixed with more Agalloch. Real nice.

I would add the significant use of the "cabaret" elements in Stolen Babies, be it in musical or visual side...

They definitely have a Jhonen Vasquez/Tim Burton vibe.

'Pan.Thy.Monium' as well as 'Karaboudjan'. Yes, both are projects of Dan Swanö and both are more than recommendable.
Try 'Pan.Thy.Monium' for some progressive/death/avant-garde metal. (I'm spellbound)
And last.fm tells the truth:
Quote: Karaboudjan was a short-lived sideproject by Dan Swanö that sounds much like an instrumental version of Pan.Thy.Monium with the ridiculously distorted guitars and psychotic use of a saxophone.

the vapors - new clear days (1984 ? possibly the greatest pop rock album ever) its got a great cold war-ish vibe...sadly remebered only for "turning japanese" which is just an ok song by their standards
the disciples of zoldon - progressiev tehcnical conceptual death metal insanity (very unique and very enjoyable)
all albums download from:
http://www.solvere.co.nz/doz/Discograph ... ZOLDON.htm
start with blackened theological tome and work your way backwards
