Well, folks: here's the first of my weekly off-topic music recommendations. To kick things off we have *shels, a curiously-named experimental group that's mostly based in California. With a wide spectrum of sound and a devastating live performance, these guys know how to craft a progressive tune.
Now, I know the discussion of music can be an emotionally charged subject for some people, but I'm not claiming that anything is better than anything else. This is no more than a soap-box for me to promote music that I enjoy; maybe you'll like it, maybe you won't. That's fine!
If you've any recommendations based on this artist, or wish to promote some music that you yourself enjoy, please do so in the comments. Maybe I'll end up enjoying something enough to feature it myself. :]
