i recently have been relistening to Suspended Animation by Fantomas, and im in love with the quirky short hard-riffed segments they accomplish in this album.. i also really liked Amenaza al Mundo for the spastic drumming and i think it's called thrash guitar..

i know these guys get some influence from some japanese bands, and possibly some other areas i dont know of..

what im asking for is the names of some bands that fit this formula who have a spark of creativity behind it (anyone can "wail" ona guitar).. what makes my mind like fantomas is the thought & precision put into each little track...

are there any other people / groups / etc who do something similiar or even in another tangent that is still as entertaining & interesting?

thanks muches. :)

and uh, for anyone who'll tell me to check out last.fm's recommendations... they suck, everything ive tried from them wasnt quite what i was looking for or was so completely opposite from the original band i laughed a few times...

and plus, i trust yall's word a thousand times better than some of the people on last.fm

My guess is that Fantomas' main influence is RUINS. Especially since Patton put an album of theirs out on his own label. And they are japanese.
