Djent is a funny internet genre that sprang up when 7 and 8 string guitars became popular. The name comes from the sound of the rhythm parts of the songs that sound like djent dj djent djent to a heavy drum beat. Then the rest of the song is crazy almost jazzy guitar riffs.
Cool... this is new to me, I had never heard of Djent before stopping by your post for an auld listen. Animals as Leaders was quality stuff, that guy knows his way around the bottom end of a guitar!! Wowsers...
Misha Mansoor and Bulb were excellent too, though it's a pity the video does not show the guitar playing.
Most of bulb's songs are also shown in the band periphery but it was kind of dumbed down to make room for the vocals.
