EPICA

You can call those dutch around lead singer Simone Simons European chartjackers since „The Divine Conspiracy“ (2007) and that hasn’t changed until today.

FEAR FACTORY

There is no need for big words for this quartet from the US. For more than 21 years this Industrial Metal legend has been in the business and at least the classic „Replica“ should be familiar to every metalhead. It’s a great pleasure for us to welcome this scene legend around the two founding members […]

FINSTERFORST

The name of the band is a synonym for the origin in the Black Forest. Their music is a musical landscape of deep woods – atmospheric Pagan Metal that isn’t afraid of song lengths of more than ten minutes. It’s no question, FINSTERFORST are one the bests in the class and after three years of […]

SONIC SYNDICATE

9MM

Honest, dirty and with lots of rough edges: 9MM are one of the real heavy weights on Germany’s Hard’n’Heavy streets. The solo band of Rock Rotten is well known for their exciting live shows, dozens of catchy songs  and a snotty attitude – and therefore it is impossible to imagine the big stages of Germany […]

HAMMERCULT

Energy and passion are only two attributes which do justice to the current HAMMERCULT album “Steelcrusher”. The band from Israel has already proved on their debut album “Anthems Of The Damned” that they can keep up with the big names in the genre.
