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...

Did they have Jhonen Vasquez do the animation in their video, and the image in the Myspace "add friends" section?

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
