Frenetic technical metal from a group of relatively unknowns has rarely sounded this good. Despite their questionable name and young ages, this group are able to tear it up with immense skill and talent, leaving all eyes pointing to their impending new effort through Lovelost Records.

Little Yellow Box:
2002 was a busy year for this relatively new act who played over 50 shows alongside the likes of Coheed and Cambria, Drowningman, In Pieces and many more. Complimented by two demo releases towards the end of that year, the band are in good stead for 2003 with a vital and highly strung emotive sound that cant be contained.

Johnny Truant:
With the recent release of their debut album 'The Repercussions Of A Badly Planned Suicide' this band have taken the bull by the horns with a startling blend of noisecore, melody and rock. Like cream rising to the top the band already enjoy somewhat of a cult status in The U.K. underground and threaten to continue their rise.

The Mayan Factor:
Consistently wowing east coast audiences with their introspective song craft and outstanding maturity, The Mayan Factor are a band who make sure artistic and creative expression is front row and center. With their new EP on the horizon, this band should easily be able to put themselves ahead of the pack, if not for their talented musicianship alone then for their willingness to dedicate themselves to the music rather than the industry.
