Mr. Bungle with Melvins, Spotlights, and more

Mr. Bungle, formed in Eureka, CA, merges experimental metal, funk, and jazz, with notable albums like "Disco Volante." After a 1999 hiatus, they reunited in 2020 with Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian and ex-Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo to revamp their 1986 demo, gaining renewed acclaim.

The Melvins, formed in Aberdeen, WA, meld punk and metal, inspiring bands like Nirvana. Known for their heavy, experimental sound, they've collaborated with various artists and released unique albums like *Colossus of Destiny* and *Basses Loaded*.

Spotlights, the husband-and-wife duo of Mario and Sarah Quintero, from Brooklyn, captivate with their spacey, dense distortion sound. Debuting in 2016 with "Tidals," they caught attention with "Walls," leading to a tour invitation from Deftones. Signed by Ipecac Recordings, their album "Seismic" (2017) was praised by Revolver and others. They’ve toured with Melvins and Glassjaw and collaborated with Allen Epley. In 2019, they released "Love and Decay," featuring drummer Chris Enriquez.
