Godspeed You! Black Emperor

This band is great (at least what I've heard). They play a sort of rock/Beethoven fusion (think a grandiose symphony written for electric guitar, drums, and trumpet) that is neither classifiable nor comparable to anything else. In addition to that, they've got a super-cool name.

Listen to their song "Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven" at this link -> http://www.betterpropaganda.com/artist_page.asp?id=538


I've got to admit that I hate their social commentary (the songs have no lyrics, though). Their website is chock full of it, and it has plenty of vulgar language, so I haven't included that link here.

I haven't read their social commentary, but I've been interested in them because of their awesome awesome name for a long time. Thanks for posting this.
