Merged with Genre Mashup per TRS.


* NeoclassicalPunkZydecoRockabilly: In addition to the obvious HeavyMetal and {{Funk}} influence, many bands in the genre combine other genres with the above as well, with HipHop, PunkRock, {{Ska}}, {{Reggae}}, PsychedelicRock and {{Jazz}} all being fairly common choices. Particularly eclectic examples include Music/{{Primus}}, Music/JanesAddiction, Music/FaithNoMore (and sorta-offshoot band Mr. Bungle), Music/LivingColour and Music/{{Fishbone}}, but even bands like Music/ThreeEleven and Music/RedHotChiliPeppers count, albeit to a lesser extent.
