Mineral

"Mineral" could refer to at least four bands, an emo band from Houston, Texas, Armenian rock music veterans from Jermuk and another one from Boston. 1) Mineral formed in 1994 and like other young bands, they toured constantly, virtually living in their van. The band's first release, the 7 inch "Gloria"/"Parking Lot" 7", was released on Audio Concept by Kerry McDonald from Christie Front Drive (the record was later re-released by Caulfield Records). Through a few rabid fans, that 7" found its way into the hands of crank! and Mineral later decided to release their records on the label.

Miaow Miaow

This is how Miaow Miaow describe theirselves:
With members who played or are still playing in local bands like Mutiny on the bounty, Actarus, Eyston, Hal flavin, Pandha, Treasure chest at the end of the rainbow, d.a.d.o.e.s?... The whole story started in June 2006, as some of us decided to form a band, actually a side-project or like we call it a 'Sunday project'. We wanted to have a band just for fun, without stress and all the bad sides you can actually find in a regular band.

As time went on, he became more enthusiastic about his love for music and began continuously playing live shows. As he grew, so did his music. One day, I was writing about the simple things in life with a simple rhythm and eventually realized my words and music were becoming more and more intense.

Distophia

Unfortunately, Distophia have decided to call it day. They will have a new band at some point in the future but Distophia is now officially over. This means that Distophia are not set to return this year with “Beat Dyslexia”, their debut full-length and the album the Birmingham-based noise-rock/lo-fi four-piece had always dreamed of making. Spurred on by the rise of the manufactured alternative and seeking to fight the encroaching apathy which genuinely left-field music currently experiences...
