DYSTROPHY

"There are few metal bands that can truly create an engaging sound and sustain it throughout an entire album. There are even fewer bands that bring an energy and focus to that sound and give it everything they’ve got. Dystrophy happen to accomplish both admirably and listening to their album, Chains of Hypocrisy, you can hear a young band who hungers to prove itself as a serious voice in metal...In a word: Strong."

"Tech-thrash? Thrashified tech-death? Deathified tech-thrash? I don’t know… but you get the point. If Machine Head made love to Atheist and popped out a Dying Fetus, it might sound like these Dirty Jer-Z-ers."
Dystrophy, belying the definition of dystrophy, presents a cacophony of accomplished metal, underlying a debt to the progenitors of the thrash metal genre..."

"The band has somehow managed to blend almost all forms of metal (prog, thrash, power, with hints of black and death) into cohesive songs, which is something not many bands attempt to do; and even of the ones that try, most fail miserably..."

[Thirst for Blood]"...This track never slows down and along with some nice double bass blasting sections, makes for a pretty forceful song..."[Through Scenes...]"...There are two solos on this song, like the first, and the second one is also great and does not fail to keep the song alive and exciting..." "...This band is certainly worth giving a listen."

"Dystrophy is full speed ahead death metal. Certain to make their own mark in the death metal genre. With harsh vocals and brutal guitar riffs makes your head spinning nonstop. Its very hard to pinpoint where their influences are because it is so chaotic. Just give it a listen and I assure you your brain will melt."

Eminence

Since they were founded in Belo Horizonte/Brazil by the guitarist Alan Wallace in January 1995, the members of Eminence have been riding high in the local Underground scene.
Through a large national following as well as their overseas fanbase, Eminence were asked to participate in the top countrywide music contest, SKOL ROCK.

Representatives from major labels and other music media outlets including MTV, Warner Music and many more voted the band winners in the state competition and third overall in the national event. This was a major achievement for a Heavy Metal band facing competition from the more mainstream genre’s such as Pop, Blues and Rock ’n’ Roll that always get the major attention from the mass media in Brazil.

Working on independent production and promotion the band toured Holland and Belgium between September and December of ’98 getting a lot of very positive reviews for their performances. On their return to Brazil they completed the album Chaotic System which was released and distributed independently. Playing festivals and supporting overseas bands they were starting to see all the hard promotion work pay off. They were beginning to get noticed on the international stage and a license agreement with Diamond Records to distribute Chaotic System in more than 15 European countries was soon to follow. In 2004 the band signed a Deal with Timeless Production from Switzerland to release the Album Humanology produced by Neil Kernon( Cannibal Corpse, Nevermore, Judas Priest).

The band line up and performances have drawn the positive attention of audiences as well as the media in all the countries they have played. The new album The God of all Mistakes( 2008) is produced by Tue Madsen (Halford, Mnemic, Dark Tranquility) Alan Wallace - Guitars Andre Marcio – Drums Bruno Paraguay – Vocals Bernardo Gosaric – Bass

BASTARD PEELS

Grind Massacre Deluxe! Pungent Stench, Disastrous Murmur and Orchestra will Disharmonic yesterday, now it's time for a new brand of grindcore almost technical. On their upcoming release "NO PICTURES" (sept 2009/ecocentric records) from the 3 guys BASTARD PEELS Laid down 26 ferocious grind pieces that are highly technical and brutal while still retaining a big "fuck you it's ROCKNROLL" attitude. formed in 2003 BASTARD PEELS come up with their unique style grindcore that can only be described as uncompromising and impressing. the band underwent a few line up changes til they finally found their style in 2007, manifested for the first time on the "Perverted DEATH" EP (2008) that gained a lot of underground zines euphoric reviews from all over the world. The guys have played a lot of shows over the past years including performances in Italy and Poland and have made themself a name for blowing away whatever audience they play for, including shows with Spasm, Meshuggah, Distaste, Ektomorf and Disbelief amongst others. If you're into extreme music and grindcore check it out.

In 2009/2010 BASTARD PEELS toured Spain, Switzerland, Germany, CzechTourism Republic and Austria with their new record "no pictures" and recorded a split CD with great distaste grinders.

READ WHAT THE PRESS HAS TO SAY ABOUT "no pictures":

"What singer / guitarist 'Angel' Mayr with bassist Jürgen Schallauer and drummer Erich 'Urge' Kirchner zelebireren here is a grind massacre Deluxe. Were recently there were few bands from the grind area, that came so angry and rude over there and also still have a massive sound. The slices here is pure aggression and a Blast Attack of the superlatives and here I am truly blown away. The technology is true, the growls and screams to go through me and the drums crack full can, which are fat that sound dry and have therefore also have a harder edge. When OESIS then take time for a brief moment his foot off the gas, so they are no less tough, no press, which then as the sow before the firm thrashing from a peak to the other rocks. Especially with the Screams is one of the socks, so no crying tapped sow how can Mr. Mayr screamer. One should indeed be careful with such statements, but with BASTARD PEELS we have a very hot contender for the Grind throne, the merciless prove these 26 attacks. " (Ffm rock webzine)

"Here you go from really damn powerful in the extreme corner super [...] what you put here for a grind massacre of the day has to advance without a doubt, the potential in the top division [...] super slice, super production. The disc belongs in every metal collection extremists. Basta! "(fatal underground zine)

"No pictures, is indeed faster, more brutal and extreme than its predecessor. So what if the CfMD such vocabulary as" fast "and" brutal "use of review is a grindcore disc, then would probably be clear what it is meant! [...] What thunders from the speakers here is very powerful, has not infrequently ICE-speed (26 songs, 24:30 minutes playing time - any questions?) and mastered playing the balancing act between old schooligem "full-in- the-Fess! "Geklöppel and technical Blast Core. And so could the" no pictures "put forward kind of grindcore this time might even blast beat love-Old schoolers and technikbesessene new schoolers relish it were. The far-herausgegrowlte song fits now (I find at least) somehow better for something. He comes in the long run not as monotonous over, but somehow still sounds bestial tendency and therefore a bit in the moderate Goregrind corner, brand-REGURGITATE howler cube without harmonizer "or something."

THE AGONIST

Canada’s most exciting export, THE AGONIST, strikes back with their second full length, "Lullabies For The Dormant Mind“, combining raw, driving shreds with pure technicality, topped off with Alissa’s brutal growls as well as dramatically melodic clean vocals, taking THE AGONIST to a new level of musical grandeur. The quintet, born in 2004, covers a wide range of styles from classical to black metal. Their debut album, “Once Only Imagined” (2007), caught the eyes and ears of many musicians and music fans alike, and their sophomore album, “Lullabies for the Dormant Mind”, set to be released throughout Europe on February 23rd, 2009, and North America on March 10, 2009, will, once again, prove the diverse talents of these young musicians. The a cappella version of Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake is only one example of the band’s musical abilities as it impressively exhibits Alissa’s mind blowingly wide range of vocal skills and professionalism as a singer.

Produced by Christian Donaldson (Cryptopsy, Mythosis), "Lullabies for the Dormant Mind" exposes new facets of the band and touches upon classical, jazz, opera, grindcore, thrash and black metal (etc) influences in a complete metal opus. Featuring guest violins by Avi Ludmer (Mahogany Rush), orchestrations by classical pianists Melina Soochan and Jonathan Lefrancois-Leduc (Blackguard) along with many other Montreal-based contributors, this album is refreshing to hear upon every listen. Following a dark, twisted yet beautiful, surrealist visual concept from Natalie Shau once again, THE AGONIST have created an uncomfortable yet addictive setting for their metal, like being awoken from a bad dream, or falling asleep to escape a nightmarish reality.

On the back of their debut album, THE AGONIST has completed several North American tours alongside a variety of bands including Sonata Arctica, Overkill, Enslaved, Arsis, The Haunted, God Forbid, Epica, The Faceless, Doro, After Forever, etc. and thus managed to build a solid, devoted fan base who loyally supports the music, the message, or both. The Agonist has also had the honor of being invited to play in Japan, Venezuela, Colombia and Mexico. They were pleased to have their single, ‘Business Suits and Combat Boots’, win honors on Headbanger’s Ball for Viewer’s Choice Best Music Videos of 2007. The Agonist is excited to turn heads with their newest work, “Lullabies for the Dormant Mind”, a daring mix of moods and styles – a challenging album well ahead of its time!

THE ROTTED

THE ROTTED’s subject matter reflects the times we live in, but unlike most bands that rant about the world as they see it, The Rotted do things differently. There is no preaching, no soap box bullshit with this band, The Rotted take the negative and twist and turn it and combine it with British gallows humour into something positive (Albeit in a very sarcastic, negative, nihilistic way!) The music is a unique blend of death metal, black metal, hardcore punk and dark cynical lyrical humour. Nothing contrived, no gimmicks, their music is honest and from the heart! The live shows are intense, fast and furious and littered with McCrow’s banter and audience participation, it provides a much-needed release for the band and the fans, a good time to be had by all!

The Rotted were formed in early 2008 by vocalist Ben McCrow and guitarist Tim Carley, the two main men behind UK death grind legends Gorerotted. They are now joined by bass player Reverend Trudgill and drummer Nate Gould, both previously of Blackened murder metal loonies Screamin Daemon.

"When Gorerotted and Screamin Daemon both came to an end in 2008 we knew we had to keep playing extreme metal. We wanted to go back to our roots and back to the bands that first got us into this music. You can hear it all over our records, we like extreme music the old school way! Recently we’ve been spinning a lot of discs by the bands we grew up listening to, Entombed, Napalm Death, Slayer, Sick Of It All, Sepultura, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Immortal, Emperor and classic stuff like that! We are proud to be old school in our tastes and in our attitudes! We do things off our own backs and we play extreme music the way we remember it!" Tim Carley - April 2010

With the debut album ‘Get Dead Of Die Trying’ released in July 2008, THE ROTTED have already made an impressive dent in the skull of the metal scene. They’ve had nothing but great press, played many UK tours and festivals (Hammerfest, Bloodstock, Hellfire) as well as European festivals (Summer Breeze, Elsrock, Dynamo) which amongst these included destroying the crowd at the sold out Wacken 2008. During 2008 in a bizarre turn of events they even managed to subvert the masses and give a middle finger to the mainstream media by having their track ‘A Brief Moment Of Regret’ played nation wide in a high street clothing store. The song was picked without the band knowing and contains a lot of references to shit that your average Saturday shopper ain’t gonna wanna hear about, the score Heavy Metal 1, mainstream morons 0.

THE ROTTED aren’t part of any particular scene or fad, past or present and because of this the band have constantly found themselves on many a diverse yet extreme bill. Playing with everyone from Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, The Berzerker, Vader and Bolt Thrower, through to Alestorm, Malefice, Trigger The Bloodshed and AOAA even through to Anvil, Saxon and Anathema is what to the rotted boys it’s all about! The aim of uniting every band and every style possible under the banner of HEAVY FUCKING METAL!!!

THORNAFIRE

Thornafire began in 1998 with the unique idea of playing Death Metal. By that time the line-up was with César Acuña (vocals), David Liempi and Víctor Mac-Namara (guitars), Alexis Muñoz (bass and vocals), and Víctor Vergara (drums).

One year later, two songs were recorded to be their first demo called "Granded for all Somberness". With that tape and a savage live show, the band started to achieve a strong name in the local scene.

After some line-up changes, in 2001 the MCD “Mortus Tenebrae Surrectus” was released, which received many good reviews from the local and international Metal media and with that, Thornafire became as one of the most promising Chilean extreme metal acts.

That MCD contains six songs of annihilator Death Metal. It was distributed all over Chile as well as many trades were done with several labels and bands from South America, USA and Europe… now it's almost sold out!

With Alexis Muñoz (bass and vocals), Eduardo Díaz (drums), Victor Mac-Namara and Germán Vazques (guitars), in the early 2003 a tour through the north of Chile and Bolivia was booked. Then a show with Czech's Pandemia in Santiago and new gigs in the south of the country. To finish an amazing year, more shows were played abroad… this time in Argentina.

In the middle of 2005 the band record the debut LP “Exacerbated Gnostic Manifestation” , record that marks the debut in the band of our new drummer Juan Pablo Donoso, known for his brutal work with Sadism. This record was a milestone in brutality, an masterpiece of hate.

Ibex Moon Records, the label created by INCANTATION mastermind John McEntee, has signed THORNAFIRE. The group's full-length debut, "Exacerbated Gnostic Manifestation", was released in April 2007 through RED Distribution.

Thornafire will enter the studio on February 2, 2009 to record their sophomore album, "Vorax Deconstruction", due later in the year via for Ibex Moon Records. Two years in the works, the follow-up to "Exacerbated Gnostic Manifestation" is "sure to be another metal of death tour de force," according to a press release. "The act has captured the true spirit of a Southern American death metal style that worships at the altar of the ancient ones and takes it cues from the likes MORBID ANGEL, KRISIUN, (early) SEPULTURA, and PENTAGRAM (Chile), while putting its own unique spin on the genre."

INFERNAEON

Emerging from the swamps of southern Florida in 2005,INFERNAEON founding members Brian Magley, Kevin Gibbons and Brian Werner created the band with the intention of unleashing a wholly original version of underground metal, combining the proven styling of Floridian death metal with the symphonic approach of European-style black metal. Quickly making a name for themselves in Florida with a brash, memorable stage show mixing theatrical murder and make up effects provided by Universal Studios, INFERNAEON welcomed guitarist Sam Molina into the fold after Monstrosity, like Werner before him, and the chemistry between Werner and Molina, showcased previously, are ecstatic to once again be putting their efforts together, this time into INFERNAEONInfernaeon, a project they feel to be ultimately more original and worthwhile.

Having already shared the stage with Malevolent Creation, Deeds of Flesh, Vile, Impaled, and Atheist among others,INFERNAEON hit Home Land Studios in late 2006 to record the band's début, A Symphony of Suffering. Featuring guest screams from Ben Flagoust (Soilent Green, Goatwhore) on "The Oracle Of Armageddon" and Keith Devito (Obituary, Suffocation, Catastrophic) commanding the dead to rise on "March of Death, ??A Symphony of Suffering boasts skillful musicianship alongside a mastering job from death metal legend Erik Rutan (Hate Eternal, ex-Morbid Angel)and ex-Monstrosity vocalist Brian Werner's own vocal-spewing style pushing the boundaries of extreme vocals. On "Sleeping God" alone, Werner holds a one-breath scream for an unheard of 40 full seconds while his unrelenting band mates rage on.

A Symphony of Suffering itself houses a closing concept-driven trilogy, "The Oracle Of Armageddon." Beginning with Falgoust's unholy vocals, the tale weaves a tale of an oracle with powers to see the future through the eyes of the dying, which leads to bloody war in order to continue amassing power. "March of Death" continues on to tell of the oracle's victims returning to life only to wage a retaliatory war on the armies of their prophesying killer. A.I.D.S. - standing for Annihilating the Inner Decay of Species - wraps up the climactic saga with the dead eradicating the land of the living across the world, believing that once everyone has returned from the dead, death cannot exist in the world.

Needless to say, the music housed within A Symphony of Suffering stands alone, second to none, and with several members paying their dues in prior touring acts, INFERNAEON knows what it takes to set the standard only to raise the bar higher yet again with each assault. With the determination, loyalty - and most importantly - the heart to make sacrifices result in success, INFERNAEON is poised to stir up waves in the extreme underground one step at a time.
