2) A Progressive Heavy Metal band with amplified and distorted clarinets, drums, and vocals (no guitars).

Taken from CD Baby:

"Inspired by the heavy chamber group, Edmund Welles, the world's only composing ensemble for bass clarinet quartet, Aaron enlisted Edmund Welles leader Cornelius Boots, to start a more "traditional" rock format, with Cornelius playing the role of the bass player on an amplified bass clarinet and Aaron playing the role of the guitarist on an amplified and distorted B flat clarinet. It may sound to you like there are guitars and basses and keyboards on this record, but these sounds were all created by using clarinets played through guitar and bass effects and amplifiers. The group is rounded out with Matthias Bossi, the drummer from Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and Book of Knots, and singer Jesse Quattro from Secret Chiefs 3 and Hammers of Misfortune.


3) A Technical Thrash Metal band from Greece, released demo "...Towards Rapture?" in 2000.
