Night Wilds – the debut album All That Should Have Been is a seventeen song rock opera that tells the story of a boy trapped in a cruel circus. From the mind of singer-songwriter Seth Micarelli, the narrative finds the boy performing for the lunatic ringleader
Opium Death – the Chicago based band’s debut album Genocidal Nemesis is twelve tracks of in your face punch you when you’re down thrash death metal. With roaring bass lines, wailing guitars, bombastic beats, guttural and bellowing vocals, and lyrics that push a brain to think. Opium Death’s debut album is fast, fierce, and ferocious.
Post Death Soundtrack – the fourth album from Jon Ireson and Stephen Moore, Veil Lifter is eleven tracks of doom, grunge, and hardcore thrash. Dedicated to the memory of Ted George Moore, the album is bold, heavy, and an invitation to one to lift the veil of ignorance and pursue truth.
