Year Of No Light

Yet one more band started after too many Belgian beers under the sun of the ending summer of 2001, Year of No Light slightly but undoubtly started to slide down to gloomier atmospheres as the inherent chaos of Bordeaux's caves and harshness of winter made their common work. As the line-up solidified around the 5 actual members escaped from acts such as Metronome Charisma, Deja Mort and Nexus Sun, the band clarified their intentions and started to build the basis of what would be their first demo recorded in 2004.

Boss Keloid

Boss Keloid are inspired by ardent, progressive and obtuse groove. Honest, raw and intense. Fat, dirty, obtuse riff after riff with El Duce vocals poured over the top. Think Keelhaul with both Crowbar and Mastodon in a headlock. Chris Morris and Eugene S Robinson look on and applaud. We released our debut opus 'Angular Beef Lesson' in September 2010 featuring riffy nuggets such as Tension R.I.B, Coin Snorter and Spurt Reynolds.

Samsara Blues Experiment

Samsara Blues Experiment are a Berlin based band, founded in Summer 2007 by leadguitarist/singer Christian Peters. They went through several changes in the first period but are in constant line-up since September 2008 featuring Hans Eiselt (guitar), drummer Thomas Vedder and Richard Behrens (bass). As the band name implies, three elemental aspects are to notice - the blues as the foundation where it all comes from, the inclusion of spiritual influences accompanied by Indian/raga music and the experimental approach to mix up varied elements in a convincing manner.
