Seeing as how when someone doesn't know how to describe an indie or metal band these days they'll say math rock/mathcore, this thread is going to see a massive variety in styles and cross-genre escapades.

That being said, here is chon.

Here is Ion Dissonance with their old vocalist, who is waaaaay better. (Warning, profusely metal).

And this speaks for itself. No vocals on their new stuff, so you don't have to worry about screaming if you don't like it.

And Upsilon Acrux are cool too.

P.S. Just about every band mentioned so far is a certain shade of the awesome scale.

Oh my god you all need to discover Lye By Mistake

I can't believe I forgot to mention these guys. They have more music than that out by the way, and it's all good and math.

ion dissonance and the number 12 are mathcore? They're toeing the grindcore line pretty well then...

This is the problem with mathcore/math rock - it seems to fit into every sort of sub-genre. I find that bands can't just be just math because nobody can agree on what math music really is.

I'm not going to stop recommending this band until everyone in the thread listens to them.

There's a reason I listen to the music I do, and this band is it. Kezia is arguably the best album ever written.

gently caress these band names are just awful.

I always thought Maps and Atlases was a pretty cool name. I see your point on the others, though.

I used to love their earlier stuff wayyy more, especially gently caress It!?. That being said, about a year ago I finally sucked it up and listened to Turtle Nipple and Toxic Shock more and my god is it ever amazing.
