The Axis of Perdition

The Axis of Perdition are a truly demented four piece from Middlesbrough, UK--second only to the entity and work they've collectively created as The Axis. They are one of the few bands who've been able to garner wide critical acclaim and fanship by not playing music. Although their early work tended to be recognizable as conventional post black metal, their newer works have been some of the most sterile, abrasive, and truly frightening soundscapes conceived by man.

netra

At first, there was nothing but these memories of a cold and grey urbanism. It is meanwhile walking down the streets of Kemper, France, that netra was first thought of, back in 2003. Nothing else could convey these horrible feelings, this underlying depression and boredom of city life. Seven years and two demos later, netra raises the interest of Nick Skog, owner of the canadian label Hypnotic Dirge Records...

Vertebrae

Vertebrae is a project that was born in the minds of guitarist and vocalist Antonio Espinosa, and bassist Luis Mesa, Vertebrae is the response of these two individuals to the decline of the musical world. After spending four secondary guitarists, two vocalists, a pianist, and another drummer, Vertebrae seems to have found their ideal alignment with the two founding members in their respective pocisiones, along with Pipe Lopez on drums. In their beginnings, the group simply wanted to play extreme metal with the occasional influence outside the genre in the name of the variety.

Terzij de Horde

TERZIJ DE HORDE combine an amalgam of progressive black and doom metal with a rawness and live presence reminiscent of extreme hardcore or chaotic screamo.

Terzij de Horde is old Dutch for “set apart from the horde”. It is a line from the poem “Einde” (ending) by legendary Dutch poet Hendrik Marsman. Marsman is an inspiration to the band, as are many other authors and philosophers in the same dark, vitalistic vein.

Bethlehem

Bethlehem is a band from Grevenbroich, Germany, formed in 1991 by Jürgen Bartsch and Kläus Matton. Before begetting Bethlehem, Bartsch and Matton used to play in a German Thrash metal band called Morbid Vision. Much of the themes in their lyrics revolve around sickness, morbidity, suicide, death and madness that may to some extent be personal to the band, though they are very difficult to understand even for German speakers because they make absolutely no sense whatsoever.
