Don't know how many people around here are familiar with these guys but they've been a favorite of mine for a LONG time. Vampire Rodents were an experimental/sound collage music group that blended classical, industrial, post-punk, jazz, electronic, ambient and house. Their first few albums kind of reminded me of JG Thirwell's Steroid Maximus material or 90s-era Foetus meets Skinny Puppy complete with gruesome samples. They took a more mainstream approach for their last two albums and collaborated with a ton of industrial/electro bands active around that time like Chemlab and Three Mile Pilot. I always thought they would get a break (especially those last two albums), but it sadly wasn't to be. Anyways, apparently they're back releasing new material on their youtube channel where they've also posted THEIR ENTIRE DISCOGRAPHY! Here's some samples from their channel:

From Premonition (1992)

From Lullaby Land (1993)

From Clockseed (1995)

From Gravity's Rim (1996)

From their new album:
