Mephisto Odyssey: Pioneers of San Francisco's dark electronic sound, fusing house roots with industrial grit. Founded by Mikael Johnston, the act shattered boundaries with Warner Bros. releases, co-writing/producing "Crash" feat. Wayne Static (Static-X)—a nu-metal/electronic anthem on Batman Beyond; Return of the Joker soundtrack and MTV rotation.
As forebears of what Static-X created and call  "evil disco," Mephisto Odyssey's techno-metal - rock hybrids prefigured the dystopian rage of modern industrial electronica torchbearers like 3TEETH and Youth Code. Revived in 2025 with "Crash Reborn"—pounding EBM beats, detuned guitars by Brad Gillis, and Wayne Static's posthumous fury—leading the charge into unrelenting mechanical aggression for a new era.

Jerry's Timeshare is a rock and roll band that still lives in San Francisco somehow.
