Toxocara

TOXOCARA was founded early 2003. After a couple of line up changes TOXOCARA's current foundation couldn't be steadier. The base of TOXOCARA's music lays in the breathtaking drums performed Romeo Gerrits (Victimizer) and the growling bass of Barry Geerligs (DeathSquad). Hysterical guitars produced by Vince Zwarts (ex- Seizure) and Martijn Moes (The Monolith Deathcult, ex- Eternal Conspiracy, ex- Beyond Belief) and the monstruous vocal attacks performed by Niels Feekes (Victimizer) complete the brutal TOXOCARA sound.

sand creek massacre

SCM is a band from The Netherlands (Zwolle, Overijssel) that plays Not-D-Beat mixed with Hardcore and Crust. It started at the end of 2006 as a project of Erik (Ex-Rabid, Ex-Civil War on drums) and Sander (Ex-Jobcrusher vocals) who joined forces with Kim and Peter, who picked up the guitars. A bassplayer was found in Kapoen for more than a year, but since he liked shipping containers and technobasses more, he was replaced by xWammusx, an ICT-expert on the rise! After 1,5 year, the band decided that Sander had become way to sexy to still fit in...
