groen

In un caldo pomeriggio d'estate, due giovani intellettuali, con in comune la passione per le serie tv e i film interpretati da Gianna Micheals danno vita ai GROEN. GROEN è un progetto in cui la follia avanguardistica di Groenlaz si fonde con lo spumeggiante virtuosismo di Oas (già noto per essere membro di The Frogman Prog Trio). La musica è caratterizzata da un susseguirsi di emozioni contrastanti fra loro, talvolta intense, talvolta rarefatte che annichiliscono e travolgono l'ascoltare, lasciando un senso di confusione sia fisica che mentale.

You Already Know

You Already Know as an instrumental band came to exist in 2008. Instrumental Progressive Post-Metal. As far as wanky genre's go, we're backing a winner! We're a heavy math-metal goliath with an indie pop band trapped inside, crying. Like if Tool sexed with Mogwai, and King Crimson stirred the porridge. Sounds ghastly, but we make a good collection of noises arranged in various ways. We've all got some pretty strong musical ties to the 90's, so bands like Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden shaped us all in some way.

Blasted

After sharing the stage in East Europe with Pro-Pain and Zuul FX, Blasted release their first full-length, “ALCHEMY”. Produced by themselves, “Alchemy” packs plenty of energy and neck-breaking riffs and hopefully would drive you nuts! Their way quite impressively evolved since the story began in 2000, in Martigny (CH) when Yomgui (bass) joined Nico (guitar) and Simon (drums). Their common love for heavy sounds blended with ultimate grooves inspired them to composing their own songs, trying to fill the gap between Pantera and Machine Head.
