The Project Hate MCMXCIX

If you're not familiar with TPH, they're an industrial death metal band from Sweden, whose core members who are alums of some better known Swedish bands (Dark Funeral, Entombed).

Their music combines top-notch death and industrial riffs, pervasive melodies (who said death metal can't be pretty?), and tastefully used Gothic elements into wonderfully atmospheric, progressively structured songs. And the eloquent anti-Christian lyrics would do any black metal band proud.

I hadn't listened to this band for a while, but just listened through their latest two alums (full tracks on last.fm! \m/). You're doing yourself a disservice if you are not listening to "The Lustrate Process" right now. This is one of the few bands out there that sounds truly original.

im highly surprised a topic didnt already exist for this band

but yeah good band! very unique id say, they combine the brutality of death metal with female vox like no other band.

Haven't listnened to these guys in a while. Really good stuff. Really unique in many ways as you guys before me pointed out.
