Close Your Eyes

Giving every ounce of their being over to everything that they set their minds to, CLOSE YOUR EYES blew the top off of the Abilene, Texas music scene and has brought their high energy, passionate brand of hardcore to the masses. With one listen of their Victory Records debut, We Will Overcome, audiences everywhere will notice the authenticity of this spirit-filled, hardcore outfit. Shane Raymond (Vocals) and Brett Callaway (Guitar/Vocals) first met at Hardin-Simmons University. Being the only two "hardcore" kids in the cafeteria connected them immediately.

Ezekiel

EZEKIEL nu este un nume cunoscut publicului larg. Nu dintr-o greşeală ci din simplu fapt că muzica a contat mai mult decât imaginea. Deşi de ceva ani în peisaj, în trecut sub pseudonimul de Lethal, ce se trage dintr-o poreclă veche, în prezent a ales să-şi schimbe numele într-o manieră mult mai definitorie. Cunoscut probabil de la ediitile Battle off Da Dome, în 2008 acest s-a calificat în finală. Concetrarea primară este muzică, etalările lirice live fiind doar o distracţie temporară.

Julia

There are two (and quite possibly more) bands by the name Julia, 1) Julia was an american / band, active in the mid 1990's.
Their style resembled the frantic sound of eastcoast (more specifically DC) emo, complete with octave chords and dark, yet melodic, basslines, thundering and slow drumming and intensly emotional vocals. On many occasions it sounded like Mathew was about to break down. Some members were playing on Lumber. Members:
Mathew Yeager (Vocals)
