Endsight (Athens)

ENDSIGHT is a Greek metal band from Athens founded in 2009. The band is known for their style of metalcore and melodic death metal, influenced from various music genres such as Heavy-ThrashDeath Metal, Hardcore, Punk etc. ENDSIGHT released their debut album "A Falling World" in 2009 while performing alongside with bands such as Hatebreed, Darkest Hour, Integrity, Cataract and others. In 2013 the band brought out their second album named ‘A Vicious Circle’, after a lot of changes in the consistence of the group and their musical orientation. The album was produced and recorded by Fotis Bernado (Septic Flesh) at Devasoundz Studios (Athens, Greece), mixed by George Emmanuel (Rotting Christ) at Esoteron Studio (Athens, Greece) and mastered by Mr. Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ). An official video was also released for the 4th track of the album “Circles of Inferno” available on the bands channel. Receiving good feedback and reviews from people and the media, Endsight later that year, performed at ‘Rockwave Festival’ along with Carcass, Kreator and Saxon. In 2014, after some lineup changes, the band toured around the Balkans from 28th March to 7th April 2014 (Endsight Balkan Tour 2014), sharing the stage with great local bands, having fun & meeting great people in Bulgaria, Serbia and Romania. Endsight also took part in the Metalhead Meeting 2014, visiting Bucharest for a second time in a few months. Performing in the legendary Arenele Romane Stadium, the band shared the stage with Sepultura, Moonspell and other great bands. The band’s perspective is to write new songs and make as many tours as possible.

Faithreat (Volos)

Faithreat was formed on the summer of 2007 by members of Disharmonic and Adikaiologitos Apon, in Volos city, Greece. The original line-up consisted of : Anestis - gtr Giannis - bass John - vox Kostas - gtr Vaggelis - drums. The band recorded its first two releases with this line-up. "Back to the Pit" (2009, full-length) and Τhrashing with the Stars" (released 2012, 7" EP). Nikos(drums) joined the band on the summer of 2011 to replace Vaggelis and a year later Sofo took on bass duties upon the departure of Giannis. The current line-up is : Anestis - gtr John - vox Kostas - gtr Nikos - drums Sofo - bass. This line-up has recorded the band's 2nd full length, called "Faithreat" (released in mid-October of 2013). The album is available in both 12' VINYL and CD formats by Screaming Victims Distro and the band itself, respectively.

Head Cleaner (Thessaloniki)

HEAD CLEANER's history is divided in two periods: The first is set between 2002 and 2004, when the band's frontman Jim “Mitch” E. and Vasilis P., sided by session musicians, created the first full length album titled “Intellectual Oxygenation” (2003), which by the way is close to becoming soldout. The second -and the most productive- period of HEAD CLEANER started in 2009 and unfolds until today. Mitch together with Costas, Billy and Lefteris as permanent members, recreated the band on a more death/grind/crust basis, releasing the band's second full length album titled “The Protest” (2010) as well as a mini CD titled “Resistance, Determination and the Sheer Will to Overcome” (2012), which has earned astonishing comments internationally, both from printed and electronic media. In February 2013, Screaming Victims Distro, released a 7” EP titled “Days of Wrath” and in April of the same year, United Guttural Records from USA, released their 3rd full length album under the title “Of Worms And Men”. Currently, distros and mail orders worldwide include all the releases of Head Cleaner in their catalogues. In 2014 Head Cleaner were even more productive. Early in the year a 4-way split was released, together with GrassRoll, WreckAge and En Psychro and in October 2014 they released one more split LP with Progress of Inhumanity through their new label, Screaming Victims Distro. Along with this work, HEAD CLEANER have recorded half a dozen new songs for various artists compilations, produced 6 official video clips and played dozens of live shows.

Incineration (Athens)

Originating from the brutal pits of Greece, INCINERATION was formed back in 2004. After various lineup formations, they ended up recording their first full length on 2007, which succeeded their two demos of 2005, ‘’Into the Grotesque’’ (February 2005) and ‘’Barbaric Invocation of Death’’ (August 2005).Their full length entitled Blasphemous Theologies was released on March 2007. Raw and premature, with tons of blasting and a guttural-splatter lyrical content. They definitely were taking their brutality way to serious. After several live shows, the band went on ice, as military obligations had to be fulfilled (army in Greece is obligatory for men). Once the army was over and with a new more solid line up, with Chris Dimopoulos on guitars and vocals, Nick Gotsis behind the drum kit and Stefanos Kokkalis on bass, they record 3 new tracks to participate in a raw and brutal 4way split cd from Greece, along with Kreas, The Anal Treatment XXXperience and Necrorgasm. ‘’Repulsive Deeds of Sodomy’’ was the title and it was released on December 2011. An awful slap in the face for all the xtreme grinders who listened. In mid 2012 they enter the studio once again for their new atrocity with title ‘’Disciples of the Garrotte’’. Ten times more raw and aggressive than their first full length, their second full was released on June 2013! 2014 finds them rehearsing for several upcoming live shows and composing new tracks for a new 4way split cd, that is scheduled to be released in the end of the year! INCINERATION IS A COMPLETELY D.I.Y BAND AND WORKS ONLY WITH DISTRIBUTION COMPANIES!
Current Line Up: Chris Dimopoulos-Guitars,Vox Stefanos Kokkalis-Bass George Kanavaris-Drums

My Turn (All Around)

Travelling around to play a show in the middle of nowhere with a shitty sound and a dubious feedback, reuniting with your old friends for a couple of hours, chilling out, meeting new people, spreading out ideas and music, eating junk and crashing at someone’s floor (that you may not know at all) at 4 o’clock in the morning, dirty and tired to death, waking up 6 hours later to start another trip to nowhere, shitfaced but positive… That's MY TURN. Formed in the summer of 2010, based in Greece. Called it quits in mid February 2014, back on the map in June 2014. We love hardcore music and we'll be performing soon in your city.

Slavebreed (Athens)

Slavebreed is a band from Athens, Greece, playing a mixture of grindcore and death metal with some crust / hardcore influences. They were formed in late 2004 by Pavlos and Kostas, from the remains of Pavlos' older deathcore side-project band with the same name ("Scorned" mcd, 2001). Slavebreed recorded a 4-track live rehearsal mini-cd in early 2007, receiving positive feedback and less than one year later recorded their first full length album, "Pain Syndicate", released under L'Inphantile Collective (Czech Republic, 2008). "Pain Syndicate" received great reviews worldwide and soon after its release Slavebreed hit the road, performing live on a number of tours all around Europe. On 2011 a 7” split was released with Hibernation / Χειμερία Νάρκη, under Noise Attack (GR) and World's Appreciated Kitsch (GR), featuring 3 new songs. In addition “Dog Eat Dog” cover was recorded for the official Disrupt tribute compilation, released at a later time (2013) under Power It Up records (DE). In the summer of 2012 Slavebreed released their second full-length album, "Dethrone the Architect", under L'Inphantile Collective (CZ) and Noise Attack (GR). Once again “Dethrone the Architect” got great reviews and was considered to be a more mature approach to the band’s prospect and expectation, based on personal sound and ‘catchy’ riffs. 2013 was the year that some tours took place, in order to support the release of "Dethrone the Architect", and in the end of 2014 a 7" split with Birdflesh was recorded and is about to be released, under Screaming Victims (GR). Following to that, some concerts and a tour will take place, while, at the same time, a new split is being worked on, for a 2015 release. Up until now Slavebreed have visited numerous countries in Europe supporting their releases, have taken part in events such as Obscene Extreme Fest (CZ), Fekal Party (CZ), Bloodshed Fest (NL), Scum Fest (UK), Play Fast or Don't (CZ), Arschcholio Fest (DE), Gore Galore Fest (PL), Crash Fest (SK) and have shared the stage with great bands (Napalm Death, Ratos De Porao, Entombed, Wolfbrigade, Nausea, Birdflesh, Fear Factory, Blockheads, Doom, Agathocles, Gadget, Dead In The Dirt, Rotten Sound, Master, Hellshock, The Rotted, Jig-Ai, Rompeprop, Severe Torture, Disfear, Afgrund, Wormrot, Venomous Concept, Mumakil, Krush and many others), receiving positive feedback from the European grind scene.

Wreckage (Thessaloniki)

WreckAge is an Old School Death Metal - Death 'n' Roll band from Thessaloniki Greece. We play a mix of bands we really love such as Entombed, Autopsy, Murder Squad, Abcess, Black Breath etc. Formed from members of the band Kvazar and Human Rejection in 2009 but it was never a active band and it was ment to be originally a side project. After Kvazar split up in 2011 and with the help of a good friend two tracks were recorded to use it for a Greek Death Grind Scene Compilation of band. Slowly the band transformed from side project to an active band adding members from local bands such as FreeFall(Vox), MurderMadeGod(Bass) to complete the line up. The band entered the Mix Studio to record its first Ep "Rise From Ruins" with Producer/Sound Engineer George Briggos. The ep consinsts of 5 tracks plus an entombed cover.
