I'm assuming by the name "Violent & Funky" that you are already familiar with Infectious Grooves. If not, check them out. Incubus' first album, "Fungus Amongus," is a great piece of funk metal. Other bands you might like are Primus (try the albums "Frizzle Fry" and "Sailing the Seas of Cheese" for a funky 3-member outfit), Firehose (also 3 members), Rage Against the Machine, I Mother Earth and Praxis (featuring Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell, Buckethead and Brain). I would wait until you dive into Praxis, though. It's some of the strangest music I've ever heard.
