  • Toxic Holocaust

    Toxic Holocaust

    Metal

    TOXIC HOLOCAUST mutated into existence in 1999, when Joel Grind merged his love for classic punk and metal into his ideal band. Like his influences - Bathory, Venom, English Dogs, Possessed, Broken Bones - TOXIC HOLOCAUST featured blazing riffs, gravel-throated vocals, and a deadly fixation on the evil in man and a post-apocalyptic world. Grind wrapped all of these elements up with a DIY attitude.
  • Crimson Glory

    Crimson Glory

    Metal

    We are Crimson Glory, an American heavy metal band that formed in 1983 in Sarasota, Florida, USA. Our journey began in 1979 under the name Pierced Arrow, then evolved into Beowulf, before we finally settled on Crimson Glory. Our classic line-up featured vocalist Midnight, guitarists Jon Drenning and Ben Jackson, bass guitarist Jeff Lords, and drummer Dana Burnell. With this line-up, we rose to international fame in the mid-1980s and were considered one of the pioneers of the American progressive metal movement, alongside bands like Queensrÿche, Dream Theater, Fates Warning, and Watchtower. Throughout our career, we released four studio albums and one EP.
  • Seven Spires

    Seven Spires

    Metal

    SEVEN SPIRES will release their fourth studio album, titled “A Fortress Called Home”, on June 21st, 2024, via Frontiers Music srl. The highly-anticipated follow-up to “Gods of Debauchery” (2021) takes their signature blend of symphonic, power and extreme metal to new heights, and drags the listener to the deepest abysses in the process. “A Fortress Called Home” was produced, mixed, and mastered by guitarist Jack Kosto. Frontwoman Adrienne Cowan comments: “I visited the void twice while writing this album. I don’t know which begat the other. It’s ugly. I love it and I hate it, and I think it’s our best work yet.”

    Seven Spires’ 2024 touring schedule includes a European tour with Skálmöld and Atavistia in March, four North American shows as direct support for Kamelot with Ad Infinitum in April, a headline set at Mile High Power Fest in Denver, CO, in August, and their first-ever headlining Japanese tour with Lords of the Trident in December.

  • Cardinals Folly

    Cardinals Folly

    Metal

    The Last Bastion of Doom. Those Finnish witchfinders. The ones that won't let go. The truest of the true. The stubbornest of the stubborn. Cardinals Folly. A groovy trio of which name has been echoing distantly in the metal underground for more than a decade. A wild uncontrollable force moving onwards to another record or another adventure. With relentless riffs, heavy metal hails, ride-or-die attitude and true love for the old school doom and metal.

    Hailing from Helsinki, Finland and formed in 2007 by Mikko "Count Karnstein" Kääriäinen (Bass, Vocals) and his back-then compatriots, Cardinals Folly has been captained by Mikko ever since then towards new conquests. After several albums, line-up changes, dramas, label disappointments and tours around the world, the current stellar constellation of "Deranged Pagan Sons" has been ongoing since 2014.

    On the upcoming new album "Live By The Sword", the band takes almost all that it finds good in metal and molds it into a tighter mass of unholy riffs, blasphemous pagan chants & choruses, luciferian & lovecraftian depravity and all in all a fearless ride to where the witching cauldrons boil hot and the brews are cool. Ranging from slow epic doom to galloping heavy metal and apocalyptic rock 'n' roll, the band loves to murder the listener with all their might. These past few years of plague and uncertainty have only made them angrier and more determined, resulting in this 42-minute onslaught of doomed heavy metal.

  • Valkyrie's Fire

  • Heathen

    Heathen

    Metal

    Heathen is an American thrash metal band originating from the San Francisco Bay Area, active from 1984 to 1993 and again from 2001 onwards. Despite never achieving commercial success, the band is often credited – alongside Exodus, Testament, Forbidden, Death Angel and Vio-Lence – as one of the leaders of the Bay Area thrash metal scene of the mid-to-late 1980s, and they have gone through several line-up changes, leaving guitarist Lee Altus as the only constant member. To date, Heathen has released three studio albums: Breaking the Silence (1987), Victims of Deception (1991) and The Evolution of Chaos (2009). The band is currently signed with Nuclear Blast Records and recently completed work on the follow up to The Evolution of Chaos.
  • Intranced

    Intranced

    Metal

    LA-based metal/hard rock band feat. singer James-Paul Luna (Holy Grail), guitarist Fili Bibiano (Fortress) and drummer Ben Richardson (Wild Eyes). Building on their celebrated musical pasts, the trio were united by the goal of mining the deep, rich seams of classic heavy metal, with a premium on songwriting and a focus on the epic themes of real life: triumph, tragedy, and heartbreak.
  • Slauter Xstroyes

    Slauter Xstroyes

    Progressive Metal

    Slauter Xstroyes was originally formed in the early 1980's. Their unique sound and powerful performances have made this band an underground cult legend over the years. In 1985 they released only 500 copies of their debut lp "Winter Kill" in 1985, and if you’re lucky enough to find an original copy, it has been known to be worth almost $1500.00 or more today. Since their separation in 1990, Winter Kill was re-released in the later 90's through Rockadome records on vinyl and cd along with their 2nd unreleased recording "Free the Beast". In 2012, this cult metal machine reunited and have since then visited Germany and Greece along with dates in the states. Their current goal in 2014 is to recorded new music and possibly a live version of the 1985 release “Winter Kill” for their 30th anniversary and return to Greece in 2015.
  • Graveshadow

With praise from the press and fans alike, the band prepared to step onto the stage again in support of the new record. Touring picked up in the Summer of 2022 with labelmates VINTERSEA,
    seeing the band perform to new audiences up and down the US West Coast.

The band has connected with audiences of fans new and old alike. 

    Sonically, Graveshadow strives to immerse the listener, telling a story that stays with you. Harmonized guitars create a sense of grandeur and aggression as sweeping orchestration accentuate the drama. Held down by the earthly rumble of the rhythm section, drums and bass add depth and resonance, setting the tone. Soaring vocals give life, delivering the emotion and meaning of the tale, leaving the listener free to wander within the sonic tapestry.
