New age instrumental hardcore band: Animals As Leaders

They're pretty cool actually. 8 string guitar and bass playing, god damn! They're very listenable to, if you like Rush, or Kansas, and heavy music, this is the perfect mix. Three piece new age band. Give them a listen!

Wild stuff...

Wild barely scratches the surface! Check out their self-titled debut. You won't regret it!

Search up on YT a song called "Wave of Babies". It's an unreleased track from the band's Myspace before the album dropped, and it's now available as a single. Regardless it's free. From what I hear the band is also comprised of very down to earth, cool guys. Here's an interview with the guitarist. He's very humble, and unlike a lot of modern guitarists he is cultured and respectable. You be the judge:

He still kind of acts like a kid, IMO. His guitar skills amaze me though, may check out 8 string sometime.
