Torchbearer

With influences ranging from Every Time I Die to Pantera, Torchbearer combines in-your-face riffs, vicious vocals and catchy melodies to create a distinctive sound. This sound is captured on the band's two EPs and one studio album Solace, which was released in 2022 and hailed as hard as nails. 'Soaring choruses and furious southern riffing meets pit-worthy breakdowns. Music which reaches directly through the speakers in and grabs you by the throat'. – Punktastic

FFO: Lamb of God, Hatebreed, ETID and Pantera

ACTS OF VENGEANCE

Hailing from Hertfordshire, England, Acts of Vengeance delivers a ferocious blend of death, thrash, and heavy metal, drawing influence from legendary acts like Metallica, Slayer, Carcass, and Sepultura. In 2024, Acts of Vengeance unleashed their latest EP, "Scars of War," showcasing a diverse array of thrash metal tracks. This release spans from the

vampiric, gothic-inspired "Baptised in Blood" to the hard-hitting exploration of contemporary geopolitical strife in the "Scars of War" title track. The previous year saw the band drop another brutal EP, "The Awakening," further cementing

their reputation in the UK metal scene.

FFO: Slayer, Sepultura and Lamb of God.
