Here are a few of the suggestions I have thought of for addition to the archives recently One is the band Psychotica in the Industrial Metal genre. This is a band that does not get a lot of notice these days but are notable for being featured on the infamous 1996 edition of the Lollapalooza tour (when it was still a tour like I wish it was and not just a three day festival) that Metallica and Soundgarden headlined.

I think they either Alternative or Sludge though they are a comedy lyric band that is best known for a metal version of "Three Little Pigs" in the 1990s and at one time featured Danny Carey of Tool as a member and provided a soundtrack for the Super Nintendo game Spider Man and Venom in Maximum Carnage (my first exposure to them as a child).

Since they disbanded in the 1970s and have no official website since they did not reform later on, here are some youtube clips of some of their songs. "Dead Forever" "Ballad of Irving Frank" "Dune Messiah" "The Prophet" Speaking of Rose Tattoo, I feel these Blues based Australian rockers should be under Traditional Metal(surprised they have not been added) at best since they are often compared to fellow countrymen AC/DC who have several albums under that category on this site Website: http://www.rosetattoo.com.au/" rel="nofollow - http://www.rosetattoo.com.au/ Myspace: http://profile.myspace.com/officialrosetattoo" rel="nofollow - http://profile.myspace.com/officialrosetattoo Another Proto entry I feel like suggesting are Canadian Hard Rock legends Mahogany Rush (aka Frank Marino's Mahogany Rush) who had some success in the 1970s and toured with Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, and Thin Lizzy among others. Frank Marino was compared to Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Winter, Ted Nugent among others and was an influence on Zakk Wylde and Eddie Van Halen as they noted in several magazines such as Guitar Player.

| Seeing the word sludge, I gave Green Jell-y a listen, and I'd say more suited to alt-metal |

http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/buffalo%28australia%29.aspx" rel="nofollow - Buffalo are an awesome band, but they've been here for a while... I guess I could re-categorise them as proto, although much of their music sounds like the real deal to me, so I'm quite happy with Traditional instead

Green Jell� have been added to alternative metal. I remember "Three Little Pigs" being played constantly on Headbanger's Ball back in the day. -------------

Another is Green Jell-y (originally Green Jell-o before lawsuits). I
think they either Alternative or Sludge though they are a comedy lyric
band that is best known for a metal version of "Three Little Pigs" in
the 1990s and at one time featured Danny Carey of Tool as a member and
provided a soundtrack for the Super Nintendo game Spider Man and Venom
in Maximum Carnage (my first exposure to them as a child).Posted By: zdunne
