Animals as Leaders: AWESOME prog group.
I say band, but its really a project from a guitarist named Tosin Abasi. Easily some of the best shit I've heard in a long long time. And holy shit this guys is an amazing guitarist. Please give all of the videos, at least the first 30 secs, a try.
There aren't a lot of rock-related instrumental bands that I can get into and these guys are great.

Re: Animals as Leaders: AWESOME prog group.
Yeah, they're F*CKING insane. You can hear alot of Vai in Abasi's playing, and alot of Zappa. Good luck learning any of it on guitar! And btw, thats all a drum machine. No real drums were used.
Yeah, I like Vai, his albums have a lot of creativity in them.

I've seen him play a 8 string Ibanez. Amazing album if you're into bands like Cynic, Planet X, Don Caballero pick up this album.

Re: Animals as Leaders: AWESOME prog group.
This guy is awesome and reminded me of Ron Jarzombek. I like this music alot. Doesnt need words...its perfect without.
Not to hijack your thread Omega but if you guys like Tosin check out Ron's Blotted Science. This is a mix of some of the craziest parts off of their album "Machinations of Dementia"
I first heard Ron and he completely blew me away.
