Deep in the vast midwest Cincinnati's Foxy Shazam has spent the past year prior to their 2005 independent release (The Flamingo Trigger) writing, recording and carving their groove into the regional music scene with their loud atchable musical nonsense backed up by thier tideflunkty and marzegatie stage show. Foxy Shazam has strived to become a band that can take a non-directional sound and make it directional; utilizing blasphermizized piano and sloppy oof bass and guitar licks to create very organized noise which collides doosledly with a tastefully skewed pop sensibility.

Hailing from Melbourne, House Vs. Hurricane are fast making a name for themselves. The band formed as six guys who all come from a variety of different musical influences (everything from August Burns Red, Poison the Well, Alexisonfire, Circa Survive to Herbie Hancock, Saves The Day, Bjork) with a desire to create something fresh and different in the heavy music scene. The result has caused quite a stir in the underground with a style of music that fuses hardcore rock melody to create a sound that could be best described as progressive post-hardcore.
Confide started as a deathcore band and now is a Post-Hardcore band, blending Hardcore riffs with metalcore breakdowns, from Los Angeles, California. They started out in August 2004, and have released two EPs, "Innocence Surround" and "Introduction" (both recorded with former vocalist Josh). Their first full length, titled "Shout the Truth", was released on June 17th, 2008, and is the band's first official release with vocalist Ross Kenyon (ex-Penknifelovelife), as well as their first release for label Science Records.
Formed in 2008 with a solid DIY ethic, Midlands based, alternative/metal quintet, ACODA, have quickly become one of the UK underground's best kept secrets. ACODA have independently toured throughout the UK and Europe, bringing their powerful song-writing and furious stage show to Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia and Croatia on their travels. ACODA recently shot the music video to their forthcoming debut single, 'Finding Your Feet', with SitcomSoldiers. Hard hitting and honest lyricism, ruthless execution combined with moments of pure atmosphere make ACODA a band to watch in 2010!
Hundred Reasons are a British rock band from Surrey, originally signed to Columbia Records in mid-April 2001 after fourteen months of near-constant touring.
