Red Rum
Ahoying from the county of Nottinghamshire sails Red Rum; a band of cut-throat pirates, epic rum guzzlers and blood-thirsty warriors! A mighty pirate themed battle band shaped by the majesty of classical music, the rowdiness of folk, and the might of metal! The countless voyages of Red Rum have truly cemented their place in the folk metal world and beyond sharing the stage with the likes of Sodom, Skindred, Alestorm, and many more! Their debut album BOOZE AND GLORY is a powerful step up from the acclaimed "With Gods By Our Side" EP, bringing in a wide range of musical influences and utilising the full extent of each members mastery of their instrument, the power shining through and combining to complete a pronounced and full sound of epic pirate metal.
Pirates of Metal
Formed in Reading, UK, in 2003, the members bonding over bands like Iron Maiden, Saxon, Annihilator and Megadeth during a time when traditional heavy metal was largely forgotten in the heavy music scene. Their music is a product of these thrash, NWoBHM and classic metal influences and is delivered with a raw intensity and honesty. During 2003-2008 they released a demo album and EP, and lived up to their name playing across the south of the UK with their preposterous lyrics and adrenaline fuelled riffs, serving up wild original songs and covers from Judas Priest to Slayer to hundreds of (many unsuspecting) fellow teenagers across DIY gigs. From 2008 the band were scattered to the four winds from France to New Zealand, and it wasn't until late 2019 that the core members found themselves together in London again. They quickly became active musicians in the city's metal scene and played their first London show in twelve years just before the pandemic, leaving it only a matter of time before the recording of a comeback EP.
Aggro
Five piece metal band hailing from Surrey, expect hard riffs, epic choruses & head banging breaks!
FFO: Killswitch Engage, Pantera & Lamb Of God.
