"Year Of No Light formed in 2001 in Bordeaux (Fr). With their first album, Nord, YONL have proven adept a shifting seamlessly between genres, balancing post-rock, sludge, somber psychedelics and crushing dark shoegaze. In 2010, now backed by two drums, 3 guitars, the band released its second album, Ausserwelt, oscillating between drone, doom, post-rock, black metal and progressive music."

Adrift is a band from Madrid that plays intense, heavy music with a variety of influences, ranging from the experimental darkness of bands like Neurosis, Isis, and Sunn O)), to the more straight-ahead riffage of Kyuss and Tool.

 

Est. in 2003, THE EYES FROM BEYOND plays instrumental drone and doom. After a few gigs and a European tour with RAXINASKY in 2005, they make a break. They are now “return reborn” with some new stuff. THE EYES FROM BEYOND sounds now like a thunderous heavy metal doom mixture with great vocals just inspired by all kinds of metal. This is now a fresh new band coming with a first album called: "ELECTRONIK PROCESS NEGATIVES", release coming soon in 2013.

Brussels-based MONT-DORÉ is a Belgian collective gathered around a manifesto, as they describe it, concerning violence and peace in the act of climbing sensibilities.    Their first EP Escalades offered a vicious blend of screamo and DIY hardcore, and saw them hit stages together with the likes of ’68, Birds In Row, Year Of No Light, Celeste, ZZZ’s, Raketkanon, This Will Destroy You and Death Engine.    Mont-Doré returned with FRACTURES, an album with a more refined sound, yet still dangling over the edges of emergency. Far from being placated, FRACTURES the sound of a band violently confronting its inner-self, cranking out a visceral sonic amalgam somewhere between screamo, post-rock and post-hardcore.
