DELLA NOVA are a London-based three-piece rooted in the intersection of progressive heavy rock and metal. The trio fuse weighty 8-string guitar grooves with vocals that oscillate between melody and grit.

They are heavy with range - technically fluent, yet built to connect beyond the niche. They seamlessly craft music that blends technical prowess with catchy, hook-led songwriting, achieving a balance that has already earned support from BBC Introducing.

Formed by songwriter and 8-string guitarist Alex Bowmer, bassist Johann Saul, and drummer Adam Szabo, the band cite Alice in Chains, Tool, Deftones and Meshuggah as influences, embedding the DNA of rock giants with a distinctly fresh edge.

Following their self-titled debut in December 2024 the band returns with new music in 2026, signaling a sharper, heavier, and more assured evolution; tightening their unique identity while widening their reach.

Live activity is ramping up across the year after being crowned winners of the Battle of the Bands in Milton Keynes at the end of 2025. They have secured notable support slots with the likes of Nuns of Tundra, Wrex, Bleeker and Diamond Black. Having built a reputation across London's grassroots circuit, including venues like The Dev, The Finsbury and The Fighting Cocks, they are now stepping into a wider phase of national visibility.

Coast Noir

Then there was two.

COAST NOIR continue to morph aggressively into something new. Something more visceral with every release.

A band once made of four is now two, but as the layers collapsed, an unwavering core was revealed.

Now more ambitious than ever, COAST NOIR drag their atmospheric, cinematic sound to its absolute depths. With tracks such as DEMIGOD, and forthcoming releases including Iwatchedyoudrown and cease to exist, the band enters its darkest form yet.

Dark. Destructive. Inexorable. Crimson waves heading for the shore without reprieve.

COAST NOIR are not just a band. They are an enigma. An essence. Something to breathe in.

Join them, or let the waves take you.

FFO: Sleep Token, Loathe, Bring Me The Horizon
