Formed at school in 2005, Denmark’s A Friend In London are four talented friends who deftly combine the complex alternative and indie influences of their youth with a boy-band pop sensibility. Tim, Ben, Ash and Seb have all had music in their veins from an early age, and the result is a debut album full of tune after unerringly catchy, rock-influenced tune. With the entire band in their early 20s, they’re as sharply-defined by their instrumental prowess as by their live performances.

There are at least two acts called Ebb: 1) Ebb is a Swedish musician and songwriter, who creates simplistic and atmospheric electronic music. He grewed up in the north of Sweden, but for the last decade he's been living in Stockholm. Ebb's debut album 'Loona' was written over 24 months. He did everything by himself, producing, writing, recording, playing, arranging and singing. 'Loona' was released in 2006 by Gaymonkey Records and was well received by the press and made it into the Swedish TOP 20.

Emperor is an influential Norwegian black metal band that represents a synth laden, progressive yet brutally aggressive and chaotic part of the genre, something quite different from the minimalism of other originators of the Norwegian black metal sound (e.g. Darkthrone). The band was formed around the core members Samoth (Tomas Thormodsæter Haugen) and Ihsahn (Vegard Sverre Tveitan) of the death metal band Thou Shalt Suffer and bass player Mortiis (Håvard Ellefsen) in Notodden, Norway, 1992.
