Twin Zero:
With former Earthtone9 vocalist Karl Middleton at the helm you just know Twin Zero will break down some walls and a few eardrums in the process. True to form, the band deliver an endearing sonic pummeling built upon weighty posturing and complex song structures. With their debut album "Monolith" already making waves in the UK, one can only hope that the ripple effect becomes strong enough to bring it over to North American shores. |

By Night:
These Swedish upstarts have managed to combine some of the best elements of the unique metal their native country has to offer with bone-splintering results. With Lifeforce Records behind them and a devastating record by the name of "Burn The Flags" in stores now, Sweden has yet another thing to be patriotic about. |

Feersum Ennjin:
Tool bassist Paul D'Amour returns with help from members of Self-fame to create a stunningly lucid EP heavy on instrumentation and expressionism. Dreamy, sonically challenging and cathartic in nature, the band successfully deliver material that bridges the gap between Failure and Tool. |

Screams Of Erida
Massachusetts has pretty much become to metalcore what Seattle was to grunge. One of the latest offspring from the Mecca of all that is mosh is Screams Of Erida; whose vicious brand of aural aggression comes complete with the production talents of Unearth's Ken Susi. Back to the pit you go. |

Contra:
If you have yet to learn the Konami code, you better get to it quick as you'll probably need 30 lives to survive the brutality in store on Contra's upcoming Corporate Punishment debut. With Logan Mader of Machine Head/Soulfly fame onboard to produce and a recently retooled line-up now in place, some serious firepower is sure to follow. |
