HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE
Melodic post-hardcore “super group” featuring ex-members of Hope Con, Shai Hulud, Arma Angelus fronted by amazing female vocals you may recognise from Longdistancerunner, strong fast melodies



HELMS ALEE
In the vain of these arms are snakes, haunting vocals to an unusual stoner edge with a heavy twang background… Their from seattle as well, great things do seem to be bred there.



ARMS
Up beat scouse trio, jankly guitars... Thankgod their nothing like the beatles, their actually decent!



THE TEXAS SKIN RESERVES
Nice, laid back electronica.. I recommend “Whirly Wind main song” I can’t wait to see them live
