Atreides

Wie zegt dat de Nederlandse bandscene weinig te bieden heeft, heeft Atreides nog niet gehoord. Deze formatie van vier jongens en een zangeres staat garant voor bijzonder energieke live performances waarbij zowel publiek als band compleet in de muziek opgaat. De nummers doen in sfeer en toegankelijkheid denken aan Alter Bridge of Paramore, maar met gitaarsolo’s die variëren tussen Eddie van Halen en John Mayer. Ook weerklinkt af en toe de kalme, volle sound van Angels & Airwaves, maar toch staan veel nummers zo stevig als een huis in de stijl van Extreme of Story Of The Year.

The Charm Offensive

Formed in Nottingham not very long ago, it's members from all over the world - the British world at least - The Charm Offensive are an alternapoprock trio that sound like noise and distortion desperately trying to disguise a tune; like a melody that wants to love you and hurt you at the same time. These are pop songs. Just very, very heavy pop songs. The line up of Mark (guitar/vox), Lawrie (drums/vox) and Kylie (bass/vox) have been together just 9 months.
