It's like.. a romantic action comedy starring Bruce Willis and Kate Winslet called 'Love Hate'.

totally different from Tim Hecker, Venetian Snares and Fennesz... metal, not electro. they have a concept-album about drowning called "Oceanic" which is awesome. you might need some time to get used to the voice of the singer though.
you can listen to a sample here: "False Light" | mp3 · mp4

I haven't heard any of the remixes, only 2 albums by Isis themselves. It's metal, but quite slow. Try and find some songs off Oceanic, you might be put off by the vocals if you're not used to them.

you're welcome : )
by the way... if you like the music but don't like the vocals, try to listen to the seventh track, "Weight". it has beautiful female vocals instead (and the track is quite peaceful, beautiful and melancholic).

i've seen them live two or three times. i must say that i am not too into their music at all. i find them to be quite boring, in fact. especially when i'm standing in the audience waiting for their songs to end and falling asleep. slow music is great - i love neurosis and the melvins, but those are bands that make it interesting to listen to. their songwriting is fantastic. isis sounds like one long yawn to me.
i can't wait to get the remix cd, though.

hmm, i have couple of their albums and they're not that good..not my thing really, but i thought they'd be different live..now im not so sure anymore..and the ticket is quite expensive so i might reconsider this..

i uh - erm... well... i think they sound pretty much the same as they do on the record only really loud. most people seem to like them a lot. i'm sorry, i didn't mean to ruin your concert-going experience. :/

and the times i saw isis play, they were opening and i was waiting for a different band to play. so maybe i was impatient because i didn't like the music too much.
