Coilguns

Coil gun: A projectile accelerator which utilizes electromagnetic coils to discharge a projectile(s) at extremely high velocity. La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. While most people from this town spend their lives handcrafting complicated mechanisms for use in luxury watches, Coilguns have been busy crafting complex mechanisms of their own. Writing began while Jona was in exile in the United States. The project had been in mind for some time and with 3 tracks written, Jona naturally looked to Luc and Louis, rhythm section in The Ocean to complete the bands line up.

ASTPAI

blasting out of a dirty basement's rehearsal room there comes the straight forward punkrock sound of austria's very own ASTPAI. think of paint it black meets some kid called dynamite and tries to kiss none more black's nose at the same time. they are even drawing some influences from bands such as from ashes rise, aus-rotten and a little choking victim/leftovercrack, just without the odd ska. even though they never lack a sense in melody and sing-a-longs.

New Morality

Band bios are usually a bunch of regurgitated bullshit overfilled with descriptive words and adjectives that add up to, well, bullshit. Getting quickly to the point here; NEW MORALITY from The Netherlands was formed late 2004 by a bunch of friends with the same hardcore mindset: pure anarchy. In the past years, they've self released a demo, compilations, an MCD, a split 7" and a recent promo CD, played various shows all over Europe and the band pretty much booked all of those shows by themselves.
