I would wait until you dive into Praxis, though. It's some of the strangest music I've ever heard.
You should try quoting next time. This is difficult to find and I'm lucky to have found it.

I'm already a fan of Infectious Grooves, Primus, and Rage. I've heard of Firehose and Praxis, but not I Mother Earth. I'll have to check those bands out...
