Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin were an English rock band originally formed in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page under the name "The New Yardbirds", based on Page's previous band, The Yardbirds. The band formed when Jimmy Page (guitar) recruited Robert Plant (vocals, harmonica), John Paul Jones (bass guitar, keyboards, mandolin), and John Bonham (drums). With their heavy, guitar-driven blues-rock sound, Led Zeppelin are regularly cited as one of the progenitors of heavy metal and hard rock music. However, the band's individualistic style drew from many sources and transcends any one genre.

Faith for The Fallen

We are Faith For The Fallen.
Our genre consists of melodic death metal. We started this band back in November of 2008 consisting of four members: Brandon (lead guitar), Aaron (vocals/keys), Ronny (bass), and Zach (drums). We then got together to practice for an upcoming Battle of the Bands event hosted by Gorilla Productions. The battle was on January 31, 2010 at Club Sound in Salt Lake City. We got second but the winning band got dropped for the fact they were not responding to Gorilla’s phone calls, messages, etc.

Van Halen is a band which formed in 1972 in Pasadena, California, United States. The band was originally called Mammoth and changed their name to Van Halen by 1974. The band's first studio album, "Van Halen", released in 1978, is widely regarded as a milestone in rock music. With this first release, the band, featuring David Lee Roth on vocals, Michael Anthony on bass, and Dutch-born Edward Van Halen on guitars (and also keyboards later) and brother Alex Van Halen on drums, established itself as a leader in the emerging and commercially successful U.

Pontiak

Pontiak may be two different artists: Baltimore/Virginia-based trio Pontiak is comprised of multi-instrumentalist brothers Van (guitar, vocals), Jennings (bass, keyboards, vocals), and Lain (drums, vocals) Carney. To date, the prolific Pontiak's releases - two EPs, two full lengths ("Valley of Cats" and "Maker") and a mini-LP, "Sun on Sun" have been self-produced, moody slabs of guitar-based rock. The band has grown heavier with each record; "Sun on Sun" can fairly be called a hybrid of classic- and stoner-rock, with songs running into 10-minute territory and extended instrumental breaks.

Doomriders

Boston's DOOMRIDERS are sonically antisocial and undeniably unforgettable as they come. DOOMRIDERS are comprised of a stellar lineup featuring Nate Newton (Converge, Old Man Gloom), along with longtime friends Jebb Riley (There Were Wires, Disappearer), Chris Pupecki (Cast Iron Hike), and JR Conners (Cave In). The demon child of their collective unhealthy obsession with Classic Rock, Hardcore, and Skateboarding, DOOMRIDERS are a rare beast in today's music world. Their soulful no frills approach conjures the spirits of Thin Lizzy, Entombed, and damn near every evil in between.

Jnr Hacksaw

JNR Hacksaw (Alexis Cousins) brings the electrobreaks flava as a stalwart of the trigger.uk imprint. This artist tends to be dropping the unexpected, glitchy twist into the mix. It's definitely a notch beyond "party breaks" when the "hacksaw" cuts in with a barrage of his trademark uptempo tweakbeats. Jnr's tracks are available exclusively through www.addictech.com
