Intronaut, as far as I can tell, come from right up the road in North Hollywood. They're probably mostly a progressive metal band, but they have more of an atmospheric, almost alternative sound than most of the super-notey groups often associated with the genre. They play in odd meters, but keeping the listener off-balance never seems to be the goal. And you hardly ever hear a guitar solo. Normally, I'd be against that omission, but these guys throw in enough variety and obvious chops to make me hardly miss it.
Elegy, the song I'm including for you below, is all over the map. It's quite heavy at times, but there are also some pretty interludes, a melodic, anthemic chorus, some jazzy drumming and a kind of spacey instrumental section in the middle. Hope you like it. As always, let me know what you think!
