 | Kamikaze
The absolute best band from Russia! They sound like a mind-blowing combination of PLEYMO, LIMBOGOTT, SLIPKNOT, and the catchiest moments of DEVILDRIVER! Amazon doesn't carry their first and best album from 2004, but you can download it from m-club.org. You'll find them listed under ##### on the site, which is the proper way to write their name. (Yes, just five number signs in a row. :)
