Oh hell yeah, their drummer is insane. Did you see them on the last tour at the north it's social club to like 30 people?

It was pretty darn good. Nice big turnout too. It's strange, a band like that really shouldn't pack out the Corner...that is a pretty big venue haha. But they do, and it's awesome!

man my first date with my wife was going to see that band play with the band I now play bass for. 12 Foot Ninja were really, really, embarassingly bad nu metal at the time.

This may just be the worst thing I've heard in the last year. They've managed to take the worst of Meshuggah-knock-off-djent and combine it with nu-metal :facepalm:

Ummmm..... I don't even know what to think. I kind of wish it was a parody, toung-in-cheek type of band.
Although I do think that their bass player looks a bit like Igor from Young Frankenstein....
