Socially conscious, lyrically poetic, rife with apocalyptic symbolism; All Else Fails is poised to take our world by storm. Playing an aggressively dark blend of Punk, Metal, and Rock, this well established Edmonton based band breaks the traditional ideals of their genre by producing music infused with experimental elements, incorporating Classical music, Electronica influenced synth lines, and spoken word sampling. This is metal for a new audience, one that’s ready for what’s beyond the ordinary.
Their inspired high-energy live show sets them apart from their peers, often drawing comparisons to The Holly Springs Disaster and Killswitch Engage.

Betrayer is unlike any hard rock/metal band in this day and age. These Canadian rockers offer a unique classic vocal style and thrashy riffs that will take you back to when metal was at its finest. In 1996, lead singer and guitarist Jeff Klingbeil and drummer Shawn Bastien formed the band and thereafter William Lozon (guitar) and Sinan Khalaf (bass) completed the line-up. They produced their first LP "Rusted Icons" in 2001. In 2005, EP "Shadowed Force" was released and in 2007 they released a single “Headed for Disaster” which was featured on BW&BK’s Knuckle Tracks and also gained regular airplay on Detroit’s 101.1 FM WRIF.

Dubai may be known as a city rich in history, a business hub and the home of the tallest structure in the world, but it’s also the birthplace of the first death metal band to come out of the Middle East.
Dubai is where, in the late 1990s, guitarist Alex Zubair and drummer Alan Madhavan came together to form Nephelium, guided by the sole vision of a band comprised of equal parts complexity and brutality.
Staying true to the roots of death metal, Nephelium was quick to forge ahead with experimentation, pulling in influences from metal and other genres.

In 1999, three brothers began making music together. Joel, Adam, and Tim Parent, (the Triad in Blood) at the ages of 15, 13 and 11 respectively, came to the end of the century with distinctly different musical preferences despite a lifelong proximity. The trio, being so diverse in influence, opted not to unify a functional idiom for their evolving mix of music. Instead they chose to simply include all of their stylistic preferences in one colossal cauldron. The result was a seven year soup of ska, grunge, hardcore, metal, reggae. funk, surf and jazz that eventually became known as Ninjaspy in 2006.
