Rabbit Junk is a good choice if you like the style of How I Learned...
Wargasm UK has a similar vibe to msi and as someone who formerly liked msi for their style finding Wargasm was like a godsend for me
I used to be friends with this dude that thought System of a Down sounded like msi and yeah I kinda see it but not really
100 gecs if you like the overall chaotic vibe of msi
Creature Feature if you enjoy msi for the edgy campiness
Angelspit has a similar style to Rabbit Junk
Nine Inch Nails because Jimmy has admitted that the early msi stuff is him trying to sound like nin (by early stuff I mean demos released in the early 90s before Tight was released. They did a compilation album called Pink with tracks from the 90s such as "Bed of Roses" and "This Hurts" so if you enjoy those I very reccomend nin)
a lot of hyper pop has a chaotic energy that msi has/had and that's mostly what I liked them for and what I've seen others said they liked them for
KMFD and other industrial metal
Insane Clown Posse
Rammstein (especially Pussy) if you like the shocking parts of msi related to sex (also look into the case of the Russian political figure that got in legal trouble for sharing the music video for Pussy it's interesting as fuck) their more recent output has more of an electronic inspired sound that msi has/had
old Slipknot has the chaotic energy and similar stage presence but it's heavier obviously
these are the ones I can think of off the top of my head I'll add more if I think of more or discover more. feel free to reccomend some in the comments as well xxx
