    I can't sing their praises enough. Tubelord are fucking amazing. Massively obscure band from Kingston, in the UK - essentially a "funner" version of Biffy Clyro. They're "math rock" / progressive, and have really beautiful harmonies. They take you through several different emotions and stages of music within one song and pull it off effortlessly.

    I just wish I had someone I could talk to about them... no-one seems to know who they are.

    You can listen to all of their stuff and download their early EP's for free on their bandcamp page:
    http://asktubelord.bandcamp.com/

    Recommended tracks (click track title and be taken to a streaming page to listen):
    Obstacles
    Night Of The Pencils
    I Am Azerrad
    Somewhere Out There A Dog Is On Fire
    Bazel (from their latest EP, crazy vocal overlaps at the end)

    Do yourself a favour and have a listen... they're brilliant.

    I've definitely heard OF them but I'd never actually heard their music before now. I'm listening to Obstacles at the moment and it's not bad.

    Tubelord? LOL. I think they could've gone with a better name.

    I'm digging the compositions/melodies but the vocalist sounds like he hasn't hit puberty yet. Too whiny for my taste.

    Fair enough, Agent O - the vocals aren't for everybody. They did an acoustic version of their debut album (it's called For The Grandparents, heh heh) and the vocalist sings a lot deeper for a majority of it, maybe give that a shot if you're up for it. It's on their bandcamp page.
