best local bands

Post by Ecrypt » Tue September 20th, 2005, 12:50 am

My current list of Atlanta bands that kick ass/used to kick ass, earned my respect and/or made me laugh;

1.Burial Rites
2.Sum Yung Guyz
3.Signs of Dying
4.Ground:Xero
5.Deus Invictus
6.Icepick
7.Package
8.The Knife Trade
9.Withered
10.Amoebic Dysentery
(close runners up; Sybaritic, Dwarfophile, Dick Delicious and the Tasty Testicles, Kshatriya, Hallow's Eve, Vyserith)

list what you think are the best bands, not signed to a major label and not Mastodon, in Georgia, active or defunct. Wrekage should do an awards show...

There's a band called Threat of Life that's come by the studio a bunch here recently, their shit is really good.

They were downstairs with Ground Xero at the Haunted/Arch Enemy show for anyone who was there.

Every once in a while we have the "Let's do Avulsion shows again" conversation and everybody is like, "Yeah, i'm down"...but laziness takes over...
