Recommendations for bands that play...

I don't really know howto describe it. Metal. (I am a metal noob here)

But not your typical metal. I want something with raspy type vocals (think death metal), grindcore blast beats, songs that don't just repeat themselves over and over again, short songs (under 2 minutes), and sludgy parts mixed in.

Does such a band exist?

Certainly not the 2 minute types, but Opeth rules! Death, jazz, folk, grind, metal, elevator music, you name it. They do it all.

I think I found one...

Ed Gein. Anyone know any other bands similar to Ed Gein? The songs get a little long but otherwise, I am very happy.

Lamb of God maybe? Their songs are usually 4-5 minutes though. Tough to find short metal songs.

Converge. I was just listening to their album No Heros and it meets most of what you're looking for.

Seems like I ran out of bands...

Wait, Check out this band, no loger together. My friend just reminded me of them. The Great Redneck Hope.

Danza.

Some songs are longer than I want. But, some real rippers.

Check put Pig Destroyer's "Prowler in The Yard". Sickest. Stuff. EVER.

couldn't get to myspace from work earlier, but here is their link. I have met the guitar player before. And used to work with the newer singer (not on recordings). Sadly, they aren't a band anymore.
