Band: Shatizar

Shatizar are an interesting band to say the least. They formed in New York City but have since moved to Puerto Rico. Their stage shows are purpoted to be quite entertaining, featuring effects and costumes (described by someone as looking like something from The Road Warrior movie, an accurate comparison). Musically they are all over the place, with elements of so many genres at different times in their music (hardcore, death metal, stoner rock, technical metal, funk, jazz, etc). Atop all experimental music, we have female vocals nearly as varied as Karyn Crisis. I'm hard pressed to call them any genre in particular, so I'll stick with the generic 'heavy metal' for lack of a better-suited description.

They have a split album and possibly a new CD, but the website is so confusing and lacking real data, that I can't be sure. I'll try to dig up the info.
