Conquest of Steel

Conquest of Steel have been hailed as Britains finest heavy metal warriors, and not without due cause. Renowned for their manic live shows Conquest are a band that truly delivers on its promise of true heavy metal. Clad in denim and spikes these proud flag bearers of the UK metal scene have been spilling the blood of false pretenders for years. With the release of their debut album they have begun to secure their place in the annals of heavy metal. http://www.myspace.com/conquestofsteel

Artist Type: 

Thine

One of the most powerful forces in the goth metal underground, Thine stepped into the spotlight in the late '90s and continued to make waves throughout the next few years. It all started in 1996 when singer Alan, guitarist Paul, and drummer Dan came together due to their love of heavy music. Putting together the rough Journey's demo later that year, a member of Black Tears Records' staff heard the record and recommended them to be signed.

Artist Type: 

Nailed

There are at least 3 artists with this name 1)Despite their ties to the incestuous Anathema/Cradle Of Filth/My Dying Bride family tree, and their geographic origins, West Yorkshire Extreme Metal act NAILED bear little resemblance to predecessors who have hailed from the same fertile Northern breeding ground. Instead their sound draws influences from the Florida and Swedish Death Metal scenes, whilst also accepting the baton from British grind forefathers Napalm Death and Carcass.

Artist Type: 

Hamerex

Hamerex was formed in August 2004 by Steve Blower and at the time consisted of Steve Blower, Tom Parkin and Shane Cartwright with Elliot Fleet joining shortly after on bass. Come 2005 the band played their first gig at Pontefract New College without Tom and with Steve on vocals. Chris Moules joined the band after seeing the gig. Hamerex began playing gigs as a 5 piece in Wakefield with their 3rd gig headlining at Bradford Rios.
