ICCD has a diverse musical background, which varies..
here is a taste of one of the pop groups currently rocking a storm among those that like uhm this type of sound, it is composed of 7 so year old former military who grew discontent with the said police state aspect of a ruled life, three female guitarists a male vocalist someone handling the electronic compoenent and a drummer who in this track is working through an edrum kit, with one hand and his mouth. The group is known as Bstrungline. The vocalist on the track was hanging upside down at between 150ft to 2 ft off the ground for 40 minutes and nearly passed out by the end of their latest concert that this was bootleged from
Although they have yet to win a BOB they have had some crowd support.
It's not that heavy but has more impact at 100+dbs.

Tramonto a mezzogiorno (Sundown At Noon), an extremely popular jamband from Nueve Italia, respectfully asks to perform at this Battle of the Bands.
Their style is somewhat different than what most people are used to. Jammusic focuses on key rhythms throughout a song, leaving most of it open to individual style and interpretation. Due to this, a majority of their music is purely instrumental, but some of their songs are grounded enough to have vocals as well.
The band's members include:
Alvise Driffe- Lead Guitarist
Ettore Salici- Secondary Guitarist
Macario Scintille- Bassist
Piero Vasaio- Drummer
Terzo Fornaio- Vocalist
Their musical foundation rests in alternative rock, jazz, blues, bluegrass, and classic rock.
We send the Red Moon Creek Band, a bluegrass/blues rock group.

They play tradition-inspired a capella music. The exact style is difficult to name: Hear yourself (http://www.ostan-collections.net/sike/helelovy.mp3) (yes, this is me singing, yes, this should be at least 5 singers, yes, my mic is shit, no, I do not care - it is about the idea, yes, sharing, ripping of, remixing, making cover versions, using it commercially and so on is strictly allowed).

The post-hardcore band Castone di Deluvio ("Trace of Deluge") would join the contest.
Kampfers
10-07-2007, 17:16
Kampfers has one band and one group willing to join.
The band is "Shr33dd3d App0calyps3".
They are a rock group. Think Creed, but add in the solos of Velvet Revolver. They're songs also have quite a bit less religious undertones than those of Creed.
The group is "Crap!"
They are a rap group, but they rap in the slower Will Smith Fresh Prince style. They are more of an 80's rap group, or "Classic Rap." Thus, they derived "Crap!"
Kampfers would also love to host this in the following years.

The Kregaian alternative/hard-rock band, Diamond Twilight, would like to attend; they are working the date into their worldwide "Best Served Cold Tour", having released their latest album Revenge in February 2007. Their debut album, Pistolwhip, came out in 2004; they spent 2005 touring, while 2006 was spent writing the new album. Singles released so far include the epic ballad "Battle for the Pass", the aggressive fight song "Pistolwhip", and the alternative smash hit "Thunder Walker", among others.

Metal rules the Crystal Mountains! Fans will start heading to ViZion as soon as tickets go on sale.
We'll have a battle of the bands to see who we'll send. Here are a few of our favorites:
the Deviants are a thrash metal band with a large following that often do wild stuff on stage like showing up wearing nothing but socks or kilts. Once their bass player painted his ass black-light red and gave the audience a glowing fruit-bowl under a black-lite spotlight.
Supersonic is a teen prodigy electronic band that has been gaining a large following- can go as long as they are in bed by 1:00am.
Raven is a metal band described as a cross between Metallica's sound and the Doors lyrics.
Red Tide is an alternative/metal band that makes EMO people cry with their loud angry energy: described by critics as a pissed off and cranky Tool.
Drunken Orgy is a popular college band that... oh hell, you get it.
Meh apathetic alternative that sounds good but inspires no one.
and who's going to be going first in the battle

OOC: The BotB thread is coming shortly. In a day or so. As for playing, you guys can post up as many as four songs - amusing you have any. If you don't, just say what song it sounds like.
For the order, it'll be who posts first goes first, honestly, as there's so many bands and not a ton of organization on my part.
And for the judging, I'd like to get 3-4 judges who are not involved to help vote. While they'll have the ultimate vote, people can also post the way they feel on who is best.
