Line-up
Martin Runnzell – Vocals
Ronnie Björnström – Guitar
Ludvig Johansson – Lead Guitar
Patrik Wall – Bass
Jon Skäre – DrumsDefiatory was formed from the roots of the East Bay Area thrash metal scene. With their straight and heavy riffs they have created a 8 songs, 39 minute long debut album called ”Extinct”. The sound takes you from early Megadeth, Exodus, Metallica to a more modern style of thrash.
After the departure from Aeon, Ronnie started up Defiatory in early 2015. Soon after, Martin Runnzell joined the band to fill the vocal spot. Martins voice caracter was just perfect for this purpose and within a week the band had created their first demo called ”Furor Unleashed”.
After releasing the Furor Unleashed demo, Jon Skäre joined up to fill the drum position.
A new demo was recorded at Garageland Studios during the summer of 2015 called ”Aeons End”. A three song demo that started the whole writing of the debut album.
In august Defiatory started to write songs for what was going to be their debut album and after recruiting lead guitarist Ludvig Johansson(Apostasy, Mesolimbic) and bassplayer Patrik Wall (Apostasy, Crowdburn) the band was complete.
Defiatory will make their first official live performance at House Of Metal on March 4th, opening the 10th anniversary of the festival.
The debut album was recorded at Garageland Studios in Umeå, produced, recoded and mixed by Ronnie Björnström. Mastered by Thomas Johansson at The Panic Room.

The brainchild of Joe 'Cockroach' Reynolds and Will 'the besmegged Wordsmith' Taylor, 'The Something Specials' is a modern take on Ska, Rock, Punk, Hardcore, DnB, RnB, Soul, Motown, House, Norwegian Black Metal, Trap, Rap, Scat, Jazz, Hip-Hop and Pop!
Our modern take on 'The Police are Scum' sums us up to a T! As we say; 'Down With the Patriachy!' XD 'Down with Fascist! Down with the Papist! Modern-day Rapist! *Looks down at you, as if to imply that you fascists are so stupid* Wubbba Lubba Dub Dub!' :-) -

With an acoustic guitar in his hands and a giant stomp box under his feet, Winnipeg’s Greg Rekus delivers his own unique brand of punk rock-infused folk music guaranteed to shake rafters, move floorboards, and get even the most stoic of concert-goers out of their seats. From the U.K. to the Ukraine, through Canada, the United States and Mexico, Rekus is no stranger to the touring circuit, sharing the stage with friends and delighting audiences far and wide with songs from his three independently released full-length albums, all the while setting an entirely new standard for DIY music.
Rekus's latest full-length album, Sibling Cities (2017), once again enlists the genius of John Paul Peters (Royal Canoe, Comeback Kid Propagandhi) as engineer/producer. Featuring local musicians Tabitha Hemphill on bass and back-up vocals, and Erik Strom on drums, the album boasts thirteen original tracks and picks up where his previous release Punkoustic (2014) left off, retaining the raw passion that characterized his earlier work, but featuring a stronger influence from the more melodic qualities of pop-punk. With more mature and insightful lyrics, tasteful arrangements, and diverse tempos, Sibling Cities is evidence of a musician devoted to refining his craft, and can be considered among Rekus’s best work to date.
During live performances, audiences are treated to an entertainer who treats the stage as his home. With high energy and infectious enthusiasm, Rekus has a natural ability to engage with a diverse assortment of crowds from around the world. His lyrics speak to common experiences, such as drinking in a favourite hometown bar, or the simultaneous joy and heartache of falling in love, but also do not shy away from making pointed political commentary, coloured with the anger and frustration that comes along with it. Delivering each line with a force that is rivaled by few other solo artists, Rekus emphasizes his words with every strum of his guitar, pounding the beat out on his custom-built stomp box.
After the highly successful release of Sibling Cities (2017), Rekus spent seven months on the road playing over 150 shows, which included some of the greatest punk festivals of the year such as No Idea Record's The Fest in Gainesville FL, and Oakland CA's TIM Fest. After taking a month off to re-group, Rekus will be back in the saddle January 2018, teaming up with Tim Holehouse from London, England for a month of touring across Western Canada, the Western United States, and Mexico. Come spring, Rekus will hit up some of his favorite places in the Mid-West United States before heading overseas for a few weeks in the UK and two months in mainland Europe.
Rekus’s passion for music is bursting at the seams. It is the driving force that keeps him constantly on the road, and cranking out album after album of folk punk goodness. His hard work has already gotten him to places he never thought attainable, and as far as he’s concerned, the only way from here is up.

Hailing from Sheffield, dynamic hard rock 4 piece outfit Steal The City are newcomers to the music scene but are purveyors of some of the sharpest hooked riffs and chorus lines this side of the Atlantic.
Musically Steal The City combine modern metal music with their gift of harmonious, progressive writing and follow their own path to get to the sound in which they are quickly becoming recognised for. The political landscape and the pressures of our modern times are subjects that Steal The City are not afraid to confront with lyrics such as “Is this the future that you fail to see? Or is the empire that you stand with crumbling at your feet? The holes in your stories are laid out before me – you cant silence us any more.” A message that people can most definitely relate to.
Forming in 2014, Steal The City wasted no time in crunching the gears into action and immediately started writing and honing in on their live set. While Individually submerged somewhere in the underground rock scene, they found each other through sharing the same passion, drive and commitment to music.
Touring around the North consistently and playing festivals such as Laycocks, Mapfest, Womfest and Tramlines (to name a few) has seen the band command a loyal following. Steal The City were hand picked to perform with Heavens Basement, Glamour Of The Kill, and Skindred - blowing people away with their energetic and mesmerising performances. Hell bent on impressing with their live experience, Steal The City channel the likes of A Day To Remember and While She Sleeps.
Steal The City are currently finalising their debut EP, set for release in 2018. In the meantime they are playing shows all around the UK.
