Paste Magazine posted this — http://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2012/04/10-ohio-bands-you-should-listen-to-now.html — which I happened across this week.  In addition to completely excluding Ghettoblaster’s homebase (Dayton), which I think sucks, there is a band or ten they overlooked.  So here is the first installment of Ghettoblaster’s “Seven More Ohio Bands You Should Really Listen To Now.”

1. Hyrrokkin: This post rock leaning avant-jazz band has huge chops.  http://www.facebook.com/hyrrokkinband
2. Feathered Serpent: Tons of attitude and a skull-rattling Am Rep-inspired sound.

3. Footbinder: Pulverizing math- and noise-rock inspired sonic experimentation.

4. Neon Warship: Arena-ready stoner metal from the states finest heavy songwriters.
