Meatjack was a sludge/alternative metal band from the Baltimore, MD rock scene formed in the early '90s and active until 2005. Meatjack can be brutal, ferocious, noisy, and dissonant. They aren't afraid to pound listeners with sensory assault, but they also have a sense of melody and offer melodic passages that tend to be dark and eerie.

Previously known as Stranger Than Fiction (2) (from 1988 to 1993), then changed name to Meatjack.
