Hi there! As this is a Back To The Future themed board, I'd like to
share a music recommendation. It's a band from Florence, Italy that
calls themselves xDELOREANx. They've been around for a while. They
play rediculously fast music in short song format, most songs
clock in at under 2 minutes and half the music is actually just
samples lifted from the BTTF films :D
The genre of music is known as Powerviolence, a branch of punk rock
music originating from the West Coast, California in particular. Like
I said before, super short songs played insanely fast, usually accompanied
by some maniac screaming into a microphone.

They have several albums released on Bandcamp. The only one I've heard
is the "xHILLxVALLEYxPOWERVIOLENCEx" release. The whole album clocks in at
about 6 minutes total! :P Apparently, they have other releases and
I'm sure they're great. With titles like "The Grey Sports Almanac EP" and
"Alternate 1985", you obviously cannot go wrong.

Fans of rediculous punk rock music should totally check it out. Anyone
wanting to scratch their head in a state of confusion, alarm or
general discomfort should also feel free to indulge.

You can check them out at https://xdelroeanx.bandcamp.com

That reminds me of The Locust. I saw themyears back at the original Vera Project space which was in the same spot as Cafe Paradiso, a really popular coffeeshop in Seattle that people from a few different subcultures hung out at. It was a weird mix of grunge, punk, goth, wouldbe cyberpunks, and general weirdos as one would find in seattle in the mid 90s. :)
Anyway, their set was ridiculously short like maybe 15-20 mins tops, but they played like 14 songs lol.
I think they were wearing weird masks too? Insect masks and gasmasks?  don't remember, I'm getting too old to remember my own age and name let alone details.
cheers
