First up we got veterans Sigh from Japan who keep pushing boundaries with their theatrical, fiery show filled with epic tales and avantgardistic metal.
Next there is Avalanche Kaito from Belgium mixing up the tales of griot Kaito Winse from Burkina Faso, with noisepunk guitars and polyrhythmic grooves filled with bleeps and bloops. Truly a 2024 sound, for as much that is a thing.
NAH from the US / Belgium lets us dance on his hectic energetic mix of textured noise and percussive beats with different samplers and a drumkit only, sweat guaranteed.
Machukha sets us off on an inner journey about resilience, fully sung in mother tongue Ukrainian burying the listener in waves of sludge.
Defacement blew us away as support for Ad Nauseam recently and sets us on a cosmic journey presenting their new album full of dissonant, epic compositions and gnarly blast beats.
