I am no expert on any of the above. Something I've been meaning to do though. I saw The Sword at Juanitas a couple years ago and it was baddass. Mastodon is an all time classic. The others I haven't heard enough of.

2.) Snail ... these guys have been close friends of mine since the 70's. Sorely overlooked

3.) Into the Void - 1971 perfection

thanks, man. They are real close friends. They played in Visalia CA last Saturday night. Too bad I'm 2000 miles away. But they put a DVD of the show in the mail for me. Should be getting it any day. I may upload it to youtube if the quality is there. New album is being pressed now
