Jon Oliva's Pain

Jon Oliva's Pain (sometimes referred to as JOP) is the latest project of former Savatage co-founder and frontman Jon Oliva. Initially the project consisted entirely of solo recordings by Oliva, but after several months of work he was joined in 2004 by former members of Circle II Circle to form a band. After hearing the results of their earliest studio sessions together he then decided to repeat the solo work from scratch with the band, releasing their first album 'Tage Mahal on the SPV label early that year.

Seer

There are multiple bands going by this name, a NY rock band, an Austrian pop band and a Canadian post-hardcore band. 1) Starting as a reunion of childhood friends Eric Zirlinger (vocals, guitar, keyboard), Wayne Silver (lead guitar), and Michael Denton (drums), SEER officially formed in late 2003 with the addition of Paul Komsic (bass). The foursome began writing and rehearsing five nights a week in a small, rundown rehearsal studio in Long Island, New York.

Within The Ruins

Recognizing the talent and passion of Massachusetts natives, WITHIN THE RUINS, it’s no wonder Victory Records added them to its growing roster. This quintet is armed with a unique take on blending technology and metal together to write music that sets their band apart from the numerous metal bands today. WITHIN THE RUINS have mastered their technique of bringing breakdowns, riffs, tempo and a dash of personality together in order to form one cohesive entity.

Dark Quarterer

The original group was formed in 1974 in Piombino and was called "Omega erre". Eight years of playing cover followed with no concerts or performances, but a continuous effort to capture the sounds and colours of the hard and progressive rock of those years.
It was an absolute imperative for the band to reproduce the songs faithfully - they played dozens of covers of Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy, Iron Maiden, Krokus, Grand Funk Railroad, Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep, Gentle Giant, Genesis...

Futile

Futile bestehen in ihrer aktuellen Besetzung seit Frühjahr 2006. Seitdem arbeiten die vier Jungs aus der Südpfalz mehrmals in der Woche an ihrem Songmaterial. Dabei verschmelzen sie progressiven Rock mit Metal-Elementen und schaffen eine aufreibende Atmosphäre, die von einem charismatischen, vorwiegend cleanen Gesang getragen wird. Das Ergebnis hiervon haben Futile auf ihre erste EP gebannt, die im März 2007 erschienen ist.
