How would you classify a band like Fall of the Albatross?

Nice plug for your band without linking to anything. As a result I checked out a couple of Youtube vids.

I'm no expert on your sort of stuff, but I'd guess it's some form of Funk/Metal hybrid ?!

im not a fan of putting labels or pidgeon holes....so dont worry about what "genre" you fit into as a band...just go with the flow and create music as you concieve it..."GENRE" is an over used and misused word when it comes to music.

well done, managed to plug yourself by finding a loophole in the system...10/10!

I'll admit, it was a plug done devilishly. The actual genre is Mormon-PowerRanger-tech-shoegaze-dub-doodoo-show tune music for the elderly and small infants. I usually turn to myspace or google to research bands recommended to me. I don't want to push my luck... and be banned eternally.

Excellent, a new genre is born for Crazy-Horse to despise :biggrin:.

Hmm, after tonights writing session, the first two minutes of a new song would undoubtedly be classified as ice cream volcano, bullet ricochet, prequel break-down, 11 time signature tapping meltstorm sandwich, post metal. Does this even count as genre anymore? I think I'm just making this genre thing up.

It's a bit of a mouthful. Can't you think of a shorter alternative ??
