Youth Killed It are a 5-piece Indie-Punk band from London/Norwich. Explosive riffs reminiscent of early Arctic Monkeys and their stream-of-consciousness vocal deliveries could fool you into thinking you’re listening to a mashup of your favourite 2000’s Britpop bands. Having spent 2016 laying the foundations to their sound and gaining interest from all over the world, Youth Killed It signed an album deal with Rude Records off the back of two EP’s released early in 2016.
They began in 2010 under a different moniker which some may know as ‘Under The Influence’. This former version of the band was writing and recording metal-oriented music and had moderate success after signing to Hassle Records. Extensively touring the UK, America and doing festivals around Europe, Under The Influence reformed in early 2016 as Youth Killed It in an attempt to move into music more inline with their evolving tastes and personalities.
Looking back far enough, the band have known each other since they were kids having met around the Norwich and King’s Lynn music scene back when bands like Deaf Havana were first breaking into the UK rock scene. Obviously the boys never grew up due to the air in Norfolk or something and so they decided to set off on an adventure writing songs about never doing the dishes and hating their day jobs. A band that just wanna have fun and not take things to seriously in a world where everything is taxing and exhausting. They just want to be your mates and play shows and maybe share a beverage with you.

HARABALL’s five members combine 50 years of experience playing hardcore. Bass player Vegard and guitarist William played in one of Norway’s most infamous straight edge bands, Tiebreak, until it exploded in a frenzy of fights and masculine love. Shortly after, William, drummer Daniel, guitarist Trond and lead singer Jon Eivind started the band Fairfuck, whose 7″ was the first release on danish Kick ‘n Punch records (Regulations, Amdi Petersens Armé). A lot of unfinished business still lurked when Fairfuck called it a day, and after 10 years of lobbying from William, HARABALL saw the light of day. When guitar-maestro and producer Trond got a minute off from his dayjob in serious rock bands like Euroboys and Mirror Lakes, all this culminated into “Sleep Tall”, released in april 2013.
HARABALL hail from Kongsberg, a small norwegian city but with a hardcore scene that is more including than most, with fewer fractions and less focus on political correctness. This can explain Haraball’s demotic, broad appeal.
In June 2014, Norwegian hardcore act Haraball hit back with the full length album Half Tux. The album is a carefully balanced combination of discipline and savagery with one goal; making human bodies bounce off the walls and stack themselves in a massive pile-on.
All of HARABALL’s releases carry artwork by the Norwegian artist Esra Røise.

British singer/songwriter Sim Williams was born in 1988 in the south coast town of Portsmouth. After picking up a guitar around the age of 11, Williams went on to playing in various punk rock bands, which led to many international tours such as the Vans Warped Tour in 2009, 2010, 2011 & 2013.
It was the independent release of his debut EP “Devil on Your Back” in February 2015 which saw the transition from punk rock guitarist to solo artist, transpire.
Recorded in his home town of Portsmouth, the EP was a true testament to the artistic freedom that Williams had been craving for years, combining his love of acoustic, punk, country, folk & blues music.
A new record, new sound and a burning desire to make the world listen, Williams returned to the road with a raw, nothing to lose attitude. After a year of touring and playing shows across the UK, he embarked on a month long solo tour across the USA.
Armed with only a guitar and a rental car, Williams set off from Los Angeles and headed for Texas, stopping in several other states along the way, playing various shows, from opening for established punk rock bands & country artists, to festivals, as well as a handful of headline shows before chasing the sun back to California.
After a year and a half of building a solid fan base, both locally and internationally, and with a whole new repertoire of songs in his arsenal, Williams returned to California just six months after finishing his solo US tour to start recording his first full length record.
It was here where he entered Straitjacket Studios in Orange County’s Fullerton, with the help of some of the finest musicians and friends that were willing to help make the new record one that would be remembered.
“Broken Bones” was released on December 8th -

Ian - DrumsHALLUX are a band, who, in the immortal words of Max Cavalera, have gone ‘back to the primitive.’ Like a volcano of toxic sludge, they have cracked the crust of conformity that envelopes the world, shedding molten light on the oppression and fear that surrounds us.
Inspired by Toxic Holocaust, Satan’s Wrath, S.O.D, Celtic Frost, and Power Trip, drummer Ian Demian-Pérez describes HALLUX’s sound as “encrusted anti-authoritarian deathened thrash!”, while their debut self-titled album, which includes ragers such as ‘Yersinia Pestis’, ‘Master Machine’, ‘Chosen Enemy’, ‘Absolved in Flames’, and ‘Herders of the Weak’, he describes as “a thrash album with influences that draw from Death, Black, Crossover and D-Beat, we are a band that deals with the deception, lies, and oppression enforced by the powers that be!”
Perez explains the meaning of his band’s intriguing name.
“Hallux means ‘big toe’ in Latin, and is representative of what keeps us human and connected to this realm. No matter how much a person tries to transcend spiritually, their big toe remains buried in the mud.”
Live, HALLUX showcases their no-frills philosophy.
“We play tight and straight to the point sets, with little or no banter between songs and relentlessly playing song-after-song. We are not the kind of band that has gimmicks. We like to keep it simple and direct!”
HALLUX’s self-titled album was released on February 23, 2018 on Bandcamp, iTunes, CD Baby and all major online retailers.

Disembarked straight from his Cyber - punk world, the monster Shaârghot appeared in the French musical landscape with the subtlety of a steamroller! With the help of his 'Shadows', the Shaârghot tries to organize a huge party and to dynamite everything that exists on this planet!
The Electro Metal Indus band devastates everything in its path, leaving behind as many traces of black paint as haematomas.
Having performed his first scenes with numerous headliners, such as the crazy Little Big, the inescapable Punish Yourself and the kings of dark electro Hocico, Shaârghot continues to make people talk about him with his extremely energetic shows, his performances including post-apocalyptic costumes and his martial metal as dancing as striking.
After having brilliantly opened the famous Festival du M'era Luna in Germany, and released a particularly sharp new clip, the band returns to France to finish the season with several dates and is currently working on a new EP planned for 2017. -

Mikko Sara-bassBlood Region was formed in Karstula in beginning of year 2002,
when first line-up gathered in the dense backwoods to burst out
first notes of Korpi-Metal.A lot of rehearsing and some recordings
were done during those times,yet they all stayed more or less in a
small circle and unreleased.Different line-ups,different material
and some planning went on.Yet,also time passed and left BR to rest
for years to come......until 2011 the flame was recovered and lot of song-writing,
rehearsing and plans were done.And so by january 2015 the band entered
the The GuardCastle,the studio owned by Jakke 'Naughty-Jack' Valkeinen,to
record the first official release.As it was planned;the recording captured
the raw sound,harsh approach and the hybrid elements of old thrash and nwobhm.
After good feedback and enthusiasm,after a while band entered studio to
record a song,'Metalheads' as a tribute to the roots,regions and friends.Then
it was short time to have little break and compose some new and rearrange some
old songs.On freezing january 2016,Blood Region crew travelled once again to capture
new songs on tape,at Naughty-Jacks new studio.This time with a bit more thought,
with atmospheric and more melodic approach and sharpened arragements.
First ep 'Of Northern Fire' was recorded and it contains three diverse,
yet really BR-sounding songs,...having that edge of raw metal but with a touch
of new elements and different genres,nevertheless,...it is Korpi-Metal,pure like
moonshine in its own way.The band goes on,...rehearsing,doing new songs,looking forward to do gigs,
a music video and record new material near future.Bound to Blood Region of Northern
Fire...step into realm of backwoods and experience the real and honest Korpi-Metal!!! -
