BAND: | Kittie | “We wanted this to be a behemoth of an album, a real beast,” says Kittie front woman Morgan Lander of In The Black, the fifth studio album of her bands decade-long career as metals reigning femme fatales. The band delivered true on their promise, creating a 12-track behemoth of unapologetic metal splendor, forging bone-crushing music and penetrating vocals into a snarling beast of blunt force trauma. And better yet, they did it without any drama. Tara McLeod, Kittie s acclaimed guitarist returns with a prodigious second studio effort. “Tara comes from a different school of music, she s more influenced by blues and jazz, and as we ... | |

BAND: | Wrath And Rapture | The metal maelstrom known as Wrath and Rapture was brought to life one dark and stormy night in early 2006 by 5 young men on a mission to give American metal a major overhaul. Brought together by the common bonds of music while still in high school, founding guitarists Kenan Livermont and Nick Staley began writing and rehearsing in 2003 while still teenagers. After an intensive search a drummer was found right under their noses in the form of classmate and athlete extraordinaire Scott Shelton. Shortly thereafter long time friend Jay Thullbery was asked to join to fulfill keyboard and synthesizer duties. This left the need for the perfect v... | |

BAND: | A Textbook Tragedy (N.A. Mgmt. / Worldwide Mgmt. with Sulaco Artist Mgmt. ) | Vancouver, BC crew A TEXTBOOK TRAGEDY are one of the most exciting and unique young bands to emerge from the transatlantic metal and hardcore circuit in recent memory. Relentlessly heavy yet sparklingly eclectic, the quintet have spent the past three years kicking up a stir in their own yard, national tours with Cancer Bats and Emmure alongside a stint on the Canadian leg of Warped Tour helping to spread word of their might across the band’s home states. Textbook’s off kilter steamroller is narrated by the triple pronged vocals of frontman Chris Bahris, guitarist Kai Turmann and bassist Bill Crook, their interplay granting the album a ... | |

BAND: | Your Demise (N.A. Mgmt. / Worldwide Mgmt. with Sulaco Artist Mgmt.) | Since their formation in 2003, St. Albans quintet YOUR DEMISE have collided head-on with every hurdle you could imagine, and then some. Equipment theft? Check. Multiple line-up changes? Check, and make that twelve. Motorway breakdowns? You bet, including a time when the side door of their tour van literally fell off in the fast lane of the M1. And as for the then some – how about the 24 hours the members of Your Demise spent in solitary confinement in a Belgian prison… But are they still here, still hungry, still going stronger than ever? Check, check and check again. YOUR DEMISE’s five year rise from humble beginnings in scout ... | |

BAND: | Woe Of Tyrants | Ohios Woe Of Tyrants spent the entirety of 2009 criss-crossing the US on a multitude of tours. After the grueling schedule came to a close, youd think they would, and most bands do, head home to relax and take some time off. Not Woe Of Tyrants. They immediately dove right into songwriting for Threnody, the follow up to their sophomore album and Metal Blade debut, Kingdom Of Might. This time around, the guys have seriously turned up the shred-knob and have churned out an album chock full of incredibly exhilarating and exciting songs. Their style lends itself to a level of brutality and heaviness present in bands like Children Of Bod... | |

BAND: | The Human Abstract | Re-examine what you might call a genre of music, a fashionable style, or a social statement. Rethink what being in a band is all about in the first place. Ego is useless, and in fact, a hindering entity, and we will have no part of it. We seek solace in the focus of music, and share what we've found with anyone who cares to listen. We do not wave flags of religion or creed, or seek pity for failed relationships in our music. We strive to bring pieces of the whole of truth about the inner workings of what it means to be a human being. We are not your parents, teachers, preachers, or government. We do not shield your eyes from things tha... | |

BAND: | Through The Eyes Of The Dead | THROUGH THE EYES OF THE DEAD will quickly remind listeners what it was like to live through the golden days of death metal, when American metal titans Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse roamed the land and At The Gates' Slaughter of The Soul was still newly-minted territory. Fast forward to 2005, and the band has created a fresh sound a decade later, although the band still utilizes the fundamentals that made new death metal records an exciting experience in the early 90s. "We are a melodic death metal band with a touch of hardcore," says guitarist Justin Longshore."I wouldn't describe us as a metalcore band, though, because we incorporate ... | |
