 Flotsam & Jetsam - Homepage
Jason Newsted's band before joining Metallica in 1986, thrash band Flotsam And Jetsam sounded very much like their idols.
Ironically, the band was signed to Elektra, with whom they recorded their second album, 1988's No Place for Disgrace.

 Amazon.com: Cuatro: Music
For the rest of us, Flotsam & Jetsam remains one of the most underrated acts in metal over the past decade or two, and 1992's "Cuatro" is another overlooked metal masterpiece from the 90's that really went unnoticed, just like the band themselves.
For me, the albums you MUST HAVE from Flotsam and Jetsam are Doomsday for the Deceiver, When the Storm Comes Down, Cuatro, and High.
This was the first album I heard from Flotsam and Jetsam....

 BNR Metal Pages -- Flotsam & Jetsam
Having long since lost the stigma of being "Jason Newsted's old band", they have, over the course of two decades, reliably delivered albums of a consistent quality, always garnering fan and critical appreciation while never quite making the big time.
It's been a long road for Flotsam & Jetsam, one of American metal's enduring forces.

Although second guitarist Pat O'Brien parted ways with the band (he's currently playing with, believe it or not, Cannibal Corpse), the band are rehearsing new guitarists and are about to hit the US for their first tour in 2-1/2 years along with Flotsam And Jetsam.
Nevermore has two songs on the page, although I wouldn't base my opinon of the band on just those two songs in the horrible format that they're displayed in on that page.
Nevermore was formed by ex-members of Sanctuary, and this band pretty much picks up where they left off.

 Monstrosity - Rise To Power
But as it would be just as unfair to call Flotsam And Jetsam the band founded by (now ex) bassist from Metallica, Monstrosity have an identity very much on their own, and they absolutely don't need to hide behind their competition.
Monstrosity are a band every death metal maniac has to know.
I have to admit that I am not familiar with any of their old releases, apart from some compilation appearances probably, and could only offer the trivia fact that present Cannibal Corpse frontman Corpsegrinder Fisher was a founding member of the Floridian Monstrosity.

 CD Baby: MINDSCAPE: Dismantling Evolution
Mindscape hails from Ohio, and have done shows with the likes of Danzig, Overkill, Manowar, Saxon, Nevermore, Flotsam and Jetsam, Reveille, Dokken, Jacobs Dream, and many more.
Everything Metallica and other bands has tried to stay true to is evident here with a unique blend of art and talent.
The band strikes me as a new age Black Sabbath with the music vs. a Rob Zombie without the monotone voice.

 Jason Newsted
Before Metallica, Newsted played bass in the Phoenix punk outfit Flotsam and Jetsam, appearing on that band's 1986 debut, Doomsday for the Deceiver.
In a joint statement issued by Newsted and Metallica on Wednesday (January 17), the bassist hinted that the physical duress and rigors of the band's touring schedule over the past few years may have played a hand in his decision to walk away from the group.
A rep from Metallica's management company, Q-Prime, said she was unaware of the fate of Newsted's Echo Brain project, and said the fledgling band has no immediate connection with the bassist's decision to leave Metallica.

 Illinois Entertainer: : Echobrain
Less than a year after unceremoniously splitting arguably the biggest metal band ever, Jason Newsted returns to Chicago as part of Echobrain, a funk-based trio that sits a far cry away from his past in Metallica and Flotsam and Jetsam.
Newsted, one might argue, is not even an integral part of the band, excepting the obvious publicity he gives them.
Opening will be Portland, Oregon band The Helio Sequence, an odd addition to the bill in that you'd think closet, indie types would shy from a mega-star, and their Northwestern sound (read: Heatmiser, Quasi, Built To Spill) might be a little more introverted than the funk.

No, in fact, what Logic does do is exactly what the title proclaims, it breaks your heart with tales of love and loss and the flotsam and jetsam left in the wake of love's destructive path.
Their latest release, Logic Will Break Your Heart, is an example of what happens when a band actually behaves like one - with all members contributing equally to create a musical masterpiece.
The four-piece band from Montreal (one of Canada's better exports) have been playing together for years, and Logic is by far their best effort and demonstrates each member's strengths equally.

 BNR Metal Pages -- Solitude
This Solitude was not a doom band, but instead played a form of 80's-ish thrash, somewhere along the lines of, say, Flotsam & Jetsam.
One has to figure there are several bands called Solitude out there, particularly since it's a natural name for a doom band.
In their short career they managed to attract a strong local following along the East Coast, but major success was not in the cards for them.

 Static Multimedia : Big Deal Records Wins Grammy For "Best Metal Performance"
The tribute to the legendary San Francisco heavy metal band, for which the Motorhead track was specifically recorded, also features artists including Flotsam & Jetsam, Death Angel, Dark Angel and members of Anthrax, Helmet, Judas Priest, Testament and Suicidal Tendencies among others.
The long, raucous career of British rockers Motörhead just about defines the genre of "metal." In fact, Motorhead's early influence on Metallica is enormous, thus making their Grammy victory covering a song from a band they so greatly inspired additionally fitting and well-deserved.
Metallic Attack was produced by Bruce Bouillet and Bob Kulick and released on August 3, 2004.
