Atlas Losing Grip

In 2005, when the melodic punk-scene in Sweden was almost completely dead, they appeared.
Atlas Losing Grip rose from the ashes and their debut-album "Shut the World Out" took them touring around Europe. Satanic Surfers lead singer and frontman Rodrigo Alfaro, who had appeared as a guest vocalist on the debut-album, was recruited in 2008.
Things fell into place and the group was completed.
As a five-piece they recorded the MCD îWatching the Horizonî. The result? Five brilliant tracks. And for the first time in a years, Swedish punk rock felt alive and real.

Bouncing Souls

The Bouncing Souls are a punk rock band from New Brunswick, New Jersey formed in 1987.

Kerbdog

Kerbdog are a heavy rock band from Kilkenny in the Republic of Ireland who began writing in 1991. Their music has been described as "an unbending alloy of matt-black, titanium-tough metal and shimmering melody.", in contrast to compatriots U2's "fake authenticity" and the "tyranny of soul" espoused by Van Morrison. U2 & Van Morrison being from very different areas naturally! Kerbdog were formed in 1991 by Cormac Battle (vocals/guitar), Colin Fennelly (bass guitar) and Darragh Butler (drums) under the repressive regime of the Christian Brothers.

What was originally going to start out as a solo project soon turned into a proper band.
