The Sickening

Another EP, Killing Joke, and another single, "Saying Goodbye" followed.

Drottnar

Norwegian , self-described as "Bunker Metal".

Drottnar is bizarre; orthodox bedlam skillfully crafted through cutting- edge unorthodoxy. The totality of the concept compels beyond what trends or external preferences will ever decide. Conceived through a series of deeply vested intentions and ideals, Drottnar was proudly established in 1997. The bandmembers' previous relationship to death metal evolved in patterns of fierceness, slightly changing into a more extreme taste.

Team me

Team Me play warm and rich orchestrated pop music in the same vein as Sufjan Stevens, Efterklang, Patrick Wolf or Jónsi. This used to be Marius D. Hagen's one-man band - a recording project where he could play the songs that didn't fit in his other bands. But Team Me has grown into a six-strong orchestra and the fragile acoustic songs Hagen used to play have been transformed into a much larger and richer sound.

After a week of borrowing each other's records, Amulet recorded their first demo in September 1993. Little did they know that this was the beginning of a working relationship spanning over a decade. They formed as a three piece with Lars Rasmussen on guitar, Torgny Amdam on vocals/drums and Arne Haabeth on bass. The two first official releases dabbled in teenage sentimentality: the self-titled debut and the Engrave EP were before emo achieved genre-status.
