Fist

There are at least 3 artists known under this name: 1) Fist (originally called Axe) was one of several early NWOBHM bands who were signed to MCA records at about the same time (others in this group were Quartz, Tygers Of Pan Tang, and White Spirit). Their sound wasn't too different from their contemporaries, with the exception being they had a slightly more melodic feel to their songs. Two albums were released, and like many other NWOBHM bands, they faded away soon after, disbanding in 1984.

Diamond Dust

Together since 2007, Diamond Dust just released their debut album on June 21, 2011. The group reminds one of peak period Led Zeppelin in their ability to dish out both blistering, full-bore rock, and lively, foot-stomping folk. The band lives and shares the same love of real music that the performers of Woodstock ‘69 and that romantic era did. Their sound is new and refreshing yet still has that familiar rock n' roll feel.

This London based Quintet are a sonic explosion of discarded and re-absorbed record collections. A band determined to force its audience to leave obvious at the door and dance to the unrelenting unexpected.

The Unprotected

The Unprotected is a glam rock & roll band from Belfast, Northern Ireland, formed in 2010. The Band consists of St. Dave (vocals), Ric (lead guitar) and Steve (rhythm guitar). "The Unprotected are spreaders of cunt rock - an exhilarating mix of musical misdemeanour and debauchery of pop metal proportions. These are not troubadour songs about chivalry and courtly love; instead, this motley crew deliver to you electrifying showmanship and balls to wall anthems on the holy trinity that is sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll.

Blue Hawaii

Blue Hawaii tells the story of a lush paradise. The way begins ambient and uncertain, but beautiful white shell beaches and carefree sunshine parties await and nourish those travelers with love in their hearts; their peace thus raised above the arguments found along the rocky road. The duo consists of Raph (Braids) and Agor; they use voice, guitars, synths, drum machines, and other electronics to create a kind of tropical-pop with love ache melodies and experimental club rhythms.
