The Acacia Strain...

...have a song called The Combine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLVu_qgmEIk

Other songs on the album include Dr. Doom, Cthulhu, Skynet (other villains/evil things), so I'm assuming this song was about Half Life's combine. Lyrics are in the video description, and they sound pretty combine-esque.

I am not awake enough for that genre...

They don't at all sound "combine-esque". Nothing whatsoever. It's garbage. I can't understand how that "music" has continued as long as it has. We get it. They're angry. At what, not sure. ... nevermind.

What a waste of my ear drum.

When I was in my 20s I listened to Motorhead. A little. It's just a variation of hard rock... (Speed metal I can see. Death metal I don't get. I don't remember the 30 other different varieties that are around nowadays...)

[Zekiran]

Yeah me too. I mean... okay, I went from Judas Priest to Tangerine Dream in one summer, but ... I just don't get it. I've heard other death-metal and similar bands that actually sound pretty good - because their singer doesn't just vomit decibels into the microphone.
