and there we have, one of the most interesting yet unique sounding scenes from around the worldSgt. Kuntz wrote:And there were also a exchange of some members between bands like MILITA, ASSAILANT, SCYTHIAN OATH, OBLIVION KNIGHT, SYRUS, WATCHTOWER, S.A. SLAYER and others.
That might help explain some of the similarities of those bands.

Still wonder if I should add Longings Past to the list. But I guess they were more into Epic stuff although still with a very unique sound and many Prog elements -thanks to Rush- on their music.
+100 for all this killer stuff!!!ALTERED STATE - Demo band with Ski of Deadly Blessing on vox. Insanely complex vocal patterns and very intense

HIDDEN CRYSTAL - Swiss band, instrumental demo only, but it's really awesome
HYD - The TX band, in the classic TX metal style, not overly aggressive though
INNER SANCTUM - from TX, three track demo, last track is amazing
INNER STRENGTH - Retrospect rerelease their demos, excellent stuff, connections with ARIOCH
LORDS OF MEAT - 90s band, some very nice tracks in their demo
MAJESTY - the pre- DREAM THEATER band, "Another won", "March of the tyrant" are classics, similar style to the DT debut
NEMESIS - The greek band, first demo rips
