Sleep Waker
Sleep Waker
Metal
Sleep Waker — comprising guitarists Jake Impellizzeri and Jason Caudill, vocalist Hunter Courtright, drummer Frankie Mish, and bassist Aaron Lutas — are one of the newest additions to the UNFD roster, joining labelmates like Silverstein, ERRA, Thornhill, and more. Mixing high-concept, thought-provoking lyrics with technical riffing and complex arrangements, Sleep Waker draw inspiration from the dream-like surrealism of David Lynch's Twin Peaks series, and futuristic sci-fi movies The Matrix, Blade Runner, Ghost In The Shell, and Japanese sci-fi anime series Cowboy Bebop. As a result, the music is a mix of brutal and brilliant, and always fascinating.

By embracing life’s changes, we grow. Rather than stagnate under the weight of circumstances or expectations, Curses defy inertia and consistently progress. The Princeton, West Virginia quintet—Brandon Casto [vocals], Eli Fry [vocals], Davey Nicewander [guitar], Michael Olivares [bass, vocals],and Shane Cyrus [drums]—toss and turn between a proficient metallic onslaught, powerhouse grooves, and poignant melodies offset by guttural growls and bludgeoning screams. After generating 2 million-plus streams and stirring up a palpable buzz, the band forge ahead once again on their second full-length and SHARPTONE debut, Chapter II: Bloom. “All in all, the album is about trying to go with extreme change and flourish,” explains Davey. “You can either roll with it or resist. We don’t want to tell anybody what to do, but we do hope to have a positive influence.”

Tanzen
Tanzen
Metal
TANZEN is a progressive/altmetal band from Chicago, IL. The band mixes the rhythmic principles of band's like Meshuggah, and blends them with the emotions and melodic nature of bands like Deftones.
"Sometimes, bands with progressive/djent leanings manage to create that perfect unison between heavy and gentle. And none in recent times have achieved it with more expertise than TANZEN." - Everything is Noise "The music instantly reminds one of acts like Monuments and Tesseract, without ever becoming just another clone version of the former. It's quite evident that TANZEN are aiming to create their own niche sonic identity." - ItDjentsTV In addition to their own individual success, they have jumped on any and every show to help get the music into the hands of anyone that would listen. Having supported TesseracT, The Contortionist, Make Them Suffer, Spite, Erra, Fit For an Autopsy, Veil of Maya, Born of Osiris, The Summer Slaughter Tour and venturing out of genre to open for Twenty One Pilots and Wale at the UIC pavilion, TANZEN plans on shattering genre boundaries and blending in wherever people are willing to listen. TANZEN dares to ask the listener 'What Are the Rules?' while the band throws the rules out the window and lets the music do the talking.
