HK119

HK 119 is a powerful Nordic force resolved to shatter any illusions you may have about your comfortable post-millennial society. This beautiful blonde creature, at once Amazonian and eerily robotic, is the creation of Finnish artist Heidi Kilpelainen. Her dystopian vision of the world takes elements of the modern human condition and pushes them to the extreme, where people have sacrificed their humanity for consumerism, and technology pervades every detail of our lives.

The Wrecks

The Wrecks were an all female early 80s punk band from Reno, Nevada.

Dogtown

From the muddy banks of the River Medway, Dogtown was formed in 2010 creating a sound that is like being violated by a length of splintered 2 by 2 with nails in it; but in a good way. Since that time they have steadily created a fan base in which they want to breakdown the barrier between audience and band with members often jumping down from the stage whilst performing into the crowd at gigs, and encouraging audience members on to the stage.

Short Bus Window Lickers

The Short Bus Window Lickers started up in 2000 when they kicked a DJ off the stage in the Button Factory squat in Brixton (south London) and played their then only 10 minute set 3 times in a row introducing the London punkscene to their fast and furious scumbag hardcore punk. They started playing gigs in and around London almost every weekend at benefits, squats, pubs and clubs and built up a reputation of being fast, tight as fuck, always up for playing and most importantly: havin a sticky sense of humour.

Quails

Quails is the experimental music project collaborating the minds of non-musically inclined performers of the tri-state NJ/NYC area taking influence from artists such as Nicole Blackman, Anthony Green, and Billy Werner. Experimental in both realms of music and literature blending spoken word and melodies born of math rock, ambient, and sleep paralysis.
Coming into a quiet fruition in early 2010, there are no current plans for any releases as of yet.
