Doomriders

Boston's DOOMRIDERS are sonically antisocial and undeniably unforgettable as they come. DOOMRIDERS are comprised of a stellar lineup featuring Nate Newton (Converge, Old Man Gloom), along with longtime friends Jebb Riley (There Were Wires, Disappearer), Chris Pupecki (Cast Iron Hike), and JR Conners (Cave In). The demon child of their collective unhealthy obsession with Classic Rock, Hardcore, and Skateboarding, DOOMRIDERS are a rare beast in today's music world. Their soulful no frills approach conjures the spirits of Thin Lizzy, Entombed, and damn near every evil in between.

A Horse Called War

A Horse Called War was formed in November 2005 by five mates from a small, grimy English town in the heart of East Anglia know as Thetford. With so much shit music being shoved in the face of rock 'n' roll and the state of "Great Britain" turning for the worse, they felt it was time to give music a good fuckin' kick in the head, have their say and most importantly have a good time. AHCW went to Purple Studios on the 12th of June 2006 to record their first demo, entitled 'We ain't proud of this'.
