Ancst – Blackened Hardcore – Berlin
(Lifeforce Records)
Since their formation in 2011 as a 2 piece studio side project ANCST have been co-spearheading the new wave of hardcore punk infused black metal in the European extreme metal / DIY underground. While sporting both a hardcore and a metal socialization, the self proclaimed collective has perfectly combined fierce melodic black metal and brutal yet metallic hardcore crust with angry and critical social political lyrics. ANCST has appeared on festivals such as Fluff Fest, Bloodshed Fest and the New Noise Fest and has been touring the European mainland as well as the UK relentlessly.
FOETAL JUICE – Death/Grind – Manchester

In Dec 2016 they released their debut album ‘Masters of Absurdity” a violent non stop slab of nasty Death/Black/Grind gristle to get your teeth around.
Live Burial – Old School Death Metal – Newcastle
(Dunkelheit Productions)
Live Burial recreate the macabre atmosphere and emotion that can only be found in memory of the late 80’s / early 90’s scenes. Riffs come out on mass, drums punch down like a sledgehammer and vocals bellow so hauntingly they can summon the dead to terrorise the living! Live Burial have toured the UK and the mainland consistently since their inception, playing on many high profile bills and festivals.
Repulsive Vision – Old School Death Metal – Barrow

Iron Altar – Sludge/Death – Edinburgh
