and you kids think idm is a bad genre title. cave in's jupiter is a good album. i once heard them referred to as math rock. or at least that release. their stuff kind of evolved. just go listen to the dillinger escape plan instead. seriously.

Polvo- ''Today's Active Lifestyles'' is a good one, although it's not really THAT mathematical... sometimes they even pound away on some powerchords like uneducated dumbasses.

i'm into the REAL math rock, not the stuff they lump in cuz they come from the midwest.
the stuff with lots of disjointed rhythms. autechres of rock, basically.

ok, i just listened to a few samples of polvo... ill have to check some more out then when i do my long listening of amazon samples.
um.... dillinger was, well.....
i listened to clips from calculating infinity.... not exactly my thing. not sure why really. its kinda too dark for what i like about the math stuff. the screamy chaos thing doesnt do me well. i dont even really liek when fantomas does it. :\
is there stuff by them thats maybe not as hardcore metal-ish?

ive never heard of math rock before, but.... disjointed rhythms? the autechre of rock??
...Captain Beefheart!!!!!
check out: (in order of recommendation) Trout Mask Replica Lick my Decals Off Baby Doc At The Radar Station Bat Chain Puller
ive expressed my love for beefheart many a times on this board, and i remember calling his music the "autechre of rock"
not all of it btw.... some is more conventional: Safe As Milk Clear Spot Spotlight Kid
Safe as Milk is a classic... excellent excellent album

ill check that stuff out. never heard beefheart before.
check out some don caballero man. 'what burns never returns' or 'american don'.
oxes is like a drunken caballero trying to hit on yr girlfriend.
very much american rock though.
hella is very melodic for all its complete disregard for convention.

paul newman del rey the plan botch (more metal- but at least listen to anthology of dead ends...great stuff)
shellac (of course) dianogah .....
i wouldn't call polvo math rock really...more discordant indierock, or something.anyway, fantastic band.

Shit, man, I've been listening to TONS of math rock.. I'll list some.
Dysrhythmia - Virginpusher and I both like this band a lot. They're an instrumental three piece from Philidelphia that creates both energetic, frenzied pieces and textural softer stuff. Their new record "Pretest" is fucking great, it's on Relapse Records.
The Kickass - Ignore the stupid name and just listen to the amazing heavy instrumental math rock. I found this cd in a "shit bin" at my campus radio station and I picked it up because I liked the album title "Death Metal Is For Pussies" and this cd just blew me away. Check it out.
Behold...The Arctopus - This is another instrumental three-piece (just like both other bands I mentioned...hmm) from New York. The instruments are drums, guitar, and this weird 8 string (maybe 10? don't remember) tapping guitar. Their website has a song and video for download if you want to see this maniac play the thing. They're really technical and cool.
That's all I can think of for now...

June Of '44 Rodan Dysrhythmia Fukkeduk Foe Art Zoyd Boud Deun Upsilon Acrux The End (Like DEP but draws more from Death Metal IMO)
That's a few of 'em. Many of these bands are Prog orientated. But I have a feeling that a lot of 'Math rock' fans would enjoy them though.

"Anthology of dead ends" by Botch is more of a math rock album.

get 'what burns never returns' id say its arguably their best. the production is a lot more clear than american don, and the material is excellent. also 'single breaking up' has some nice stuff from the don cab 2 era.

The End rule, they're on Relapse Records which also rules (usually).
P.S. Dillinger Escape Plan is amazing. I've seen them twice. Once in October (they were great) and once in February with The Locust. The most recent time I saw DEP they were AWFUL, they played a bunch of new shit (or should I say nu shit) and it was terrible. But when they played the old stuff it was still rad. At both shows the lead singer jumped into the crowd and landed on me. The second time I caught him and he grabbed my collar and I screamed along into the mic, it was a great time I tell you!
