Rock General

Original band from Baltimore. Exotic Groove Metal - Cryptic Matter is the cross-pollination of Steve’s metal guitarwork with Justin’s funk-rock drumming resulted in Cryptic Matter’s unique sound, “Exotic Groove Metal,” characterized by heavy guitar riffs/solos written in exotic scales, sitar simulators, Middle-Eastern drones, and hypnotic bellydancing-like drum beats. Meanwhile, Adam weaves funky/groovy bass lines underneath Devin’s screamo/melodic vocal attack.

Description

We dub our genre "Exotic Groove Metal." Traces of old-school metal, funk, world-beat, hip-hop, alternative, screamo, dance, jamband, jazz, and progressive can be found in our music.

Band/artist history

Cryptic Matter formed in December 2011. Former members of the VG cover band, Ice Cap Assault.
