Not exactly local to me, but within a 100 mile radius they're my favorite band.

 

[Mattayus]

I'd love nothing more than to put a local band up here, but they're all shit, scene orientated toff wankers. Cambridgeshire has a great music scene, but nothing contemporary, it's completely hopeless, particularly for metal.

[HisEmissary]

Michael, are you familiar with PORTAL? Godly stuff and I believe their guitarist has one of the few authentic Ironbird 7s. Utterly devastating sonic perversion.

As for my own local bands / peers, I can only support a few... Profanatica and Baphomets Horns being foremost.

MySpace.com - PROFANATICA - US - Black Metal / Black Metal / Black Metal - www.myspace.com/profanatica
MySpace.com - BAPHOMETS HORNS - Connecticut - Black Metal / Death Metal / Metal - www.myspace.com/baphometshorns

and I'd like to think my own band, Ipsissimus, is elite by CT's standards

I'm pretty sure it's just a Warlock with the horns sawn off. Cool band though.
