These are at least 3rd generation. In the quiet moments you can hear the tape hiss. This is a great way to see how the band changed from their hardcore beginnings to their current tribal/apocalyptic sound.

Quote:

An Atmospheric Hardcore band from Oakland, CA, USA (formed around'86 '87).....
Neurosis is truly one of the most unique bands in extreme music today. Rising from hardcore roots in the Bay Area in the late eighties (the debut Pain Of Mind is very much a hardcore album), the first signs of the future sound of the band began to take shape on parts of The Word As Law, and by the time of Souls Of Zero (a masterpiece, one of the best albums of the nineties), their transformation into something special was complete. Describing their sound to the uninitiated is a difficult task -- they blend tortured vocals, tribal/rhythmic drumming, slow, dense riffing, and sampling effects to create bleak landscapes of sonic noise. . The live shows are quite an experience as well, with intense visual effects that complement the music. They've been virtually in a musical field all to themselves, though in recent times a few bands have emerged with clear Neurosis influences (two fine examples are Cult Of Luna and Isis). A highly talented and recommended band.

Current Line Up:
Scott Kelly - Guitars, Vocals (Tribes of Neurot, Blood & Time, guest in Mastodon)
Steve Von Till - Guitars, Vocals, later Filters & Textures (Tribes of Neurot, Culper Ring, Harvestman, guest for Jarboe)
Dave Edwardson - Bass, early Vocals, later Moog Synthesizer & Space (Sacrilege B.C., guest in High Tone Son of a Bitch, Tribes of Neurot, Jesus Fucking Christ)
Noah Landis - Keyboards, Organ, Piano, Samples & Atmospheres (Tribes of Neurot, Blood & Time)
Jason Roeder - Drums (Tribes of Neurot)

Neurosis are major pioneers and a highly influential sludge band, and by many, considered to be one of the first bands to play this sub-genre of hardcore and metal.
