I think I heard "STRYBORG" somewhere, if that's how you spell it . . .
Striborg, probably comes under Commune along with Cascadian Black Metal and Aluk Todolo
Amber Asylum come to mind for some reason, probably because I'm trying to think of genre straddling bands
& Swans, where do they fit in, along with Jarboe
Still lots of good music, as you say maybe the best since the 80s but not a united scene, in the 80s Altrock was Black Flag,Triffids, Birthday Party, The Pastels,Walking Seeds as long as it wasn't Whitney. I don't think many people would thankyou for calling them Altrock these days
