Fulci is the death metal band named after the “Godfather of gore” Lucio Fulci. The band combines the two things they like the most: horror movies and death metal. Lucio Fulci films had a strong influence on the aesthetics of extreme music. Fulci's intent is to pay homage to the maestro by creating concept albums based on his films. The band released three discs till now, some of which have reached their 6th reissue. We did four USA tours as headliners plus several festivals and apparitions in Europe and South Africa. In 2023 we released a live session in Tampa, Florida at the Morrisound Studios where American death metal was born. in 2024 will be released our 4th album via 20 Buck Spin Records. Fulci live shows try to resemble cinematic experiences through video projections, lights, synthesizers and horror staging. In September 2023 we played a show in a movie theater presenting our first short movie and soundtrack release. We have a regular collaboration with the fashion brand Slam Jam to develop events, products and performances. We have a strong fanbase and among others we have been mentioned by Max Cavalera, Eli Roth and Dwid Helion. KERRANG!

From the fertile death beds of Ohio rises Mutilation Barbecue. Spawned in 2019 from the ashes of death-thrash rippers Subtype Zero (who also gave birth to 200 Stab Wounds), the band featured Nick Mcgroder and Peter Blanchet on guitar, Dylan Andras on bass, Chris Frederick on vocals and Harrison Good on drums. Upon the release of their self-titled EP (2021) the band stormed onto the local Ohio scene with devestating riffs, horrific lyrics and an explosive live show. Their unique style of catchy, groovy death metal landed them under the Maggot Stomp umbrella. 2022 saw the release of their “Abortion Ambulance” single followed by extensive local shows opening for everyone from Frozen Soul to Sanguisugabogg to tours with Gates to Hell and Hanging Fortress and an appearance at Full Terror Assault Open Air Festival. With a year of shows under their belt, Mutilation Barbecue entered the studio in the summer of 2023 to work on their debut LP, “Amalgamations of Gore.” Mixed and mastered by Will Killingsworth at Dear Air Studios with cover art by Colter Masson the album is set to release on March 29th via Maggot Stomp.
