Invaders

There are two bands known as Invaders: 1. The new band led by Joe Meredith, formerly of the Beatles-esque Merediths, is surprising not just because of Meredith’s more poppy pedigree, but also because there are few bands left making sounds like this. The Invaders live near rock music but probably won’t be understood by the AC/DC fan next door. Fans of the Sun City Girls and early Butthole Surfers will be pleased, however, to find a new psychedelic, grainy mindblast of a band.

Choking Victim

Choking Victim was an American punk band from 1992 to 1999, formed in New York City. The band became notable around "C-squat," in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, where they squatted and continue to inhabit and organize shows for their music, which blended ska punk with black metal, and anarchist lyrics. They also became known for Satanic imagery and numerous references to the vagrant lifestyle, such as crack-smoking, shoplifting, and squatting. They also, like many other bands in the punk scene, have violent anti-police sentiments in their songs.

The Broken

Since forming in late 2005 The Broken have achieved a lot for a band who have only existed for little over a year. Influences range from Muse, Wilco, Queens of the Stone Age, P.J Harvey and Jeff Buckley to the lush soundscapes of Sigur Ros and even into more classical territories. During 2005 and 2006 the Broken gigged extensively around the country taking in the Roadmender and Soundhaus in Northampton and the Half Moon in South West London and London's Rock Garden to name but a few.

Rosetta

Philadelphia quartet Rosetta push the boundaries between metal, progressive rock, post-rock, space rock, and hardcore punk, employing an experimental songwriting technique filled with chaos and atmospherics. Their sounds range from Pink Floydian / progressive rock sonic layering to walls of pure static ambience to crushing, sweeping sludgey riffage. Their first album (The Galilean Satellites, 2005) was an especially ambitious project: the goal was to record two discs of equal length (one a metal album...
