Dude, you heard Dark New Day yet? It has some (one?) Sevendust guy in it. Kind of like Sevendust... goovy, heavy, with neat vocals. Lots of harmonies, too. Nate's big-time into 'em, and he got me interested (and in return, I turned him and Clint on to Nevermore, turned Nate onto Shadows Fall and Lamb of God, and Clint cued me in to The Haunted. It's a jusical menage a trois! )

 

[Jesse]

1)Steve Vai
2)Dream Theater
3)SYmphony X
4)Racer-X
5) Tom Waits

Nah, dude, haven't heard of 'em. And I haven't gotten around to listening to Nevermore, although everyone is like "They're so awesome. they're the bomb. they're so cool" and I'm like "THEY CAN'T BE THAT GOOD!!" But... maybe they are. So, I'll have to check out that Dark New Day.

Never liked Lamb of God much myself. Only heard 3-5 of their songs though.
