Ok here goes (the main characteristic is ofcourse dicordance):
Today is the day "temple of the morning star"(fucked up melodies)
The Dillinger Escape Plan "calculating infinity"(superb musicianship/breathtaking changes of pace)
Botch "we are the romans"/"an anthology of dead ends"(weird discordant riff-fuckery)
Playing Enemy "cesarean"(power trio from seattle) Isis "celestial"/"sgnl>05"(sludgy heaviness that stretches to ambient synthetical forms-not mathcore for the record)
Oh and Godflesh... whatever you get your hands on... every record they made is brilliant.
Well that shit will keep you occupied for a while. If you need more information... well tell me.

Well I'll check some of the bands you mentioned. I haven't really given much attention to the whole indie scene(no such scene exists of course) and I'm probably missing out. Uh check out Melt Banana. By the way mathcore as a term of classification is as idiotic as IDM.

Hella are fucking insane. I was meaning to check them out a few weeks ago but my hd gave up on me and I lost all the stored data. You HAVE to check phantomsmasher. They're quite similar with the addition of fucked up blastbeats and tons of digital manipulation. Oh they also got a split single with VSnares.

yeah i played that snares track on the radio last week... it's a shame that it's so obscure (relative to everything else he did last year)... because it's definitely the best track he did last year.... i must hear more phantomsmasher

two very fucked up drone bands... it's real cool these bands have multiple low-key cd-r releases... and you can feel all elite for having heard them... :P

Sightings Gang Gang Dance Excepter
Gang Gang Dance review in the Wire:
"The art-rock underground in Brooklyn is always percolating, but lately there's something scalding in the water, considering the brilliantly disparate sounds of Sightings, Animal Collective, Double Leopards, Excepter, Mouthus, all the outsider outfits on the Space is No Place compilations, and so much more. Gang Gang Dance just might be the tip of this sky-high geyser; this LP, their first official release (aside from last years super-limited Revival of the Shittest CD-R), is an absolute mind-washer, two side-long tracks of elongated vocals, 3-D percussion, electronic breakdowns, and skin-raising noise. ..no one could've predicted the bracing originality of their new ensemble." - Marc Masters, WIRE.

if you like those bands, you may enjoy Converge. i have their split ep with Hellchild and their lp Jane Doe - both are exceptional records.
Hellchild is also incredible - one of the best death/grind/etc metal bands ever!

Yeah I have all of their records in one form or another. My favorite converge stuff are "Jane Doe" (especially the first 3 tracks), the "poacher diaries" split with agoraphobic nosebleed and "when forever comes crushing down". I think they can be absolutely perfect but they eventually mess up a bit in everyone of their records. They are about to release a new album "you fail me". I can hope that it will kick ass.
