David Bazan fronts the enigmatic rock band Pedro the Lion and the electronic-based Headphones. His emotionally charged narratives, eye for telling detail, and mournful voice have more in common with J.D. Salinger's "Nine Stories" or Flannery O'Connor's "Wise Blood" than with the usual lyrical slant of popular music. Bazan is a gifted storyteller, weaving parables of spiritual conflict, suburban ennui, and personal surrender into magnetic, well-crafted songs. Pedro The Lion's most recent album, 'Achilles Heel' topped the college radio charts. Headphones' self-titled debut was released in May 2006. Philadelphia's Pattern Is Movement plays jazzy progressive rock.

One of the originators of the late '80s San Francisco metal sound, Testament has moved to a heavier sound over recent years with the addition of guitarist James Murphy. Among the youngest bands ever to storm the metal genre, Death Angel has come to be known as one of the most influential bands to emerge from the thriving Bay Area Thrash Metal Scene in the early 1980s. God Forbid has its roots in the humble setting of a New Jersey basement. The music of Arsis is the product of strong classic metal and rock influences such as Racer X, Iron Maiden, Dio, Black Sabbath, and Alice Cooper, combined with the aggressive, in-your-face influences of bands such as Morbid Angel and Death. Soilent Green is a melding of metal, hardcore and sludge.
