Sick Fix is a hardcore band from Washington D.C. They are part of a semi-recent resurgence of fast straight edge hardcore punk coming from the DC/MD area. They are influenced heavily both by 90's powerviolence such as Infest, and late 80's youth crew such as Youth Of Today and Judge. Although the band has only been a band for a short while they already have a strong fanbase in both D.C. and Baltimore and are notorious for their live performances.

Magrudergrind began in September of 2002. This District of Columbia powerviolence/grindcore trio self released their first demo/EP entitled “Don’t Support Humanitary Aid That’s Led By The Church” in a months time. After selling out of these extremely quickly and receiving a tremendous positive response, they wrote, recorded, and self released their second CD EP six months later, entitled “Religious Baffle.

BLACKENED seemed to have come out of nowhere, but the truth is that every member of the band has been involved in the independent music community for the last decade and a half. The all-star lineup boasts current and former members of the juggernaut that is HATEBREED (Bassist Chris Beattie and original drummer and founding member Dave Russo) as well as current Connecticut contenders and alum alike, including vocalist Jay Reason (THE DISTANCE) and guitarist Chris Legg (FASTBREAK).
