2. Boston-based ambient sludge metal band. The band combines a wide variety of influences, creating a style of post-metal that fuses the melancholy and melody of bands like Cult of Luna and Katatonia with massive, crushing riffs and a sense of urgency hinting at their roots in hardcore and sludge (ala Crowbar, Will Haven, Coalesce, etc).

The band released a well-received self-titled debut EP in 2008 on Forgotten Empire records, and a split 12" LP with Monolith (Philadelphia) in 2010 on the NYC-based Silence of Silence label. As of November 2010, the group has changed their name to simply 'VYGR' to avoid confusion with other acts, and has recorded a full-length album titled "Hypersleep" which is due for a January 2011 release through San Francisco label, Creator-Destructor.
