I could go on about bands that are hard to categorise into genres like Opeth who have a definate death metal sound with the deep growls, heavy distorted riffs and double kick beats but also have wonderful, slow accoustic parts and great, soft singing in many songs that sounds completely opposite to the typical death metal band, such as Cannibal Corpse.

Then there's Tripod who seem quite unique. They're mainly just put into 'Comedy', which doesn't really give them recognition as a band, being grouped in together with funny movie and TV quotes and stand up comedians. They also make many of their songs within an hour. On Triple J (a radio station) they are given three/four/five things to base the song on and given an hour to make it including these things. They are also accoustic so would they be defined as 'Song In An Hour Accoustic Comedy'?
