GET THE SHOT
Hailing straight from Quebec City, Canada, GET THE SHOT plays an unpretentious spirited hardcore tinged with the desperation of a cold and disaffected youth. Fueled by integrity and strong beliefs, the five members have made more than what their community expected of them. In five years of existence, the band has four recordings to its credit, “In Fear We Stand” (2009) “Perdition” (2012) “No Peace In Hell” (2014) and “Infinite Punishment” and produced five videos. They played more than 400 shows all across Cuba, Europe and North America: from self-managed squats to international festival concerts, touring alongside artists who have influenced them such as Bane, Comeback Kid, Death Before Dishonor, Stick To Your Guns and Eighteen Visions. Pulling off a sound akin to 90’s hardcore bands like Strife and Ringworm while incorporating elements of 80’s trash metal, its latest achievement “Infinite Punishment”, is a dark and brooding record delivered with the distinctive ferocity and violent vigour of five disillusioned spirits who have nothing left to lose. No fashion, no frills, no lies! GET THE SHOT is all about rage and anger toward this harsh place we live in.
VOMIT
NORTHEAST DEATH METAL. No one epitomizes the sound of harsh winters, boiling summers and blunt, in-your-face, no-frills death metal more than New York’s VOMIT FORTH. While the quartet’s Century Media debut, Seething Malevolence borrows from a blueprint pioneered by East Coast death metal legends like Internal Bleeding, Scattered Remnants and Cryptopsy, peppered with New York hardcore’s snub-nosed brutality, Seething Malevolence is the next step. The sound of music pushed into the red – and staying there until it bends, snaps and breaks.
HALF ME
No moralizing, no bullshit, no holding back. Half Me is heavy metalcore from Hamburg, Germany. Visceral and raw in words and sound. Armed with their striking new Opium EP, the band is making a name for themselves throughout the continents, and with their first US Tour now finished they have set eyes on their next target.
