Although Neurosis has been lumped into the hardcore punk genre, probably because of their previous style on their first two releases, the band has steadily evolved into a musical whirlwind of what one may refer to as an apocalyptic folk sound. This article needs additional references or sources for verification. ...
Neofolk is a form of folk music that emerged from European ideals and post-industrial music circles. ...
Neurosis's sound is on occasion reminiscent of the more experimental work of Swans and Pink Floyd. Mostly what remains of their hardcore punk influence in their current style is Kelly and Steve Von Till's vocal styles though heavy metal singing techniques are utilized with them. Swans were an influential American rock, experimental, folk and post-industrial band active from 1982 to 1997, led by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Michael Gira. ...
Pink Floyd are an English rock band that initially earned recognition for their psychedelic rock music, and, as they evolved, for their avant-garde progressive rock music. ...
Steve von Till works as a primary school teacher and is a singer and guitarist for the progressive sludge metal band, Neurosis, along with fellow singer and guitarist Scott Kelly in the same band. ...
Their constant evolution has no doubt alienated a good many of their original fanbase, though by the same token the band has garnered acclaim from critics as well as new listeners.
Neurosis were one of the first bands to feature custom made projected visuals as an integral part of their live performances. From 1990 to 1993 Adam G. Kendall was recruited to create the visuals and perform live with the band. Following his departure from touring, Pete Inc. took over the job, although Kendall continued to contribute visuals for the band until as late as 1997. Kendall also shot the footage for the Locust Star video.
Often highly experimental and psychedelic in nature, the visuals have added to the reputation of Neurosis' intense live experiences. Many of the visuals for their tours supporting Through Silver In Blood can be found in the film Altered States. Some of tother visuals can be sampled on the enhanced portion of the Sovereign mini album and on the A Sun That Never Sets DVD video release. Neurosis is an experimental metal band with elements of indie/industrial/hardcore plus influences ranging from hardcore punk and sludge metal to dark ambient, industrial, and tribal music. ...
Altered States is the name of both a novel (ISBN 0060107278) and a film adaptation of that novel, both written by Paddy Chayefsky. ...
A Sun That Never Sets is the seventh album from the Oakland, CA. band Neurosis. ...

Additionally, the band have founded their own independent record label, Neurot Recordings, which, in addition to releasing material from Neurosis and its associated projects, has since become home to several up-and-coming innovative musical acts. Neurot Recordings is an independent American record label founded by members of Neurosis and Tribes of Neurot. ...
