“Beneath California” The world is falling apart one day at a time, and the majority of us sit and watch as if attending a public hanging—more and more, our interest is piqued by the appalling, while our thoughts and reactions remain largely absent. When stripped of the bloated, festering egos that so many cling to in order to feel important, we are nothing more than ugly animals. In a society that is predominantly dormant, Retox brings this reality to the forefront in a forward-thinking way, commanding our ever-rapidly-decreasing attention spans and determined to provoke some kind of visceral response, good or bad. Currently consisting of Justin Pearson (The Locust, Head Wound City, All Leather, Swing Kids), Michael Crain (Festival of Dead Deer, Kill the Capulets), Brian Evans, and Keith Hendriksen (Kill the Capulets, Virginia Reed), Retox is marked by a speed and sound that seeks to shatter apathy. Since their conception in 2011, they have toured with similarly like-minded acts such as Melt-Banana, Tomahawk, OFF!, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and Doomsday Student, physically bringing every bit as much intensity as the music itself incites intellectually. Coming off of their sophomore album, “YPLL” (Years of Potential Life Lost), Retox have emerged from the collective depths of San Diego and Los Angeles with their latest antagonistic efforts, entitled “Beneath California”. Varying styles and sonically experimenting, melding the raw with the refined, the band continuously teases yet never settles on any one genre-- aside from perhaps (as members of the band itself have referred to their work) “annoying”. Tracks such as “Death Will Change Your Life” spit cynical lyrics drenched in rapid-fire rhythm: “All those who have died before me, forgot trustees, cleaned streets with parolees/They dragged everything into the sea, the filth and the debris, and hoped none would see.” Overall, Retox simultaneously seems to reflect and defy, using music as a way of holding a broken mirror to the rest of us, exposing different pieces of our own fucked up realities, and forcing the acknowledgement of the inevitable self-imposed apocalypse we are creating for ourselves.

WARSAWWASRAW is a blistering hardcore duo built to cut the shit and thrash the hits in the pit.   The band is based in Paris, France, and consists of Mathieu Luckas Betard on drums and John Anthony Huss on guitar and vocals.

The band was born in 2003 in Paris and its outskirts on the ashes of bands like Gameness, or Belle Epoque and starts being fully active in 2005. Revok doesn’t claim any particular influence but rather develops a profound taste for harsh and dark atmospheres. In 2005, the band puts out two self released Eps : Biocarbon Amalgamate and Program Medics And Cathode Clinics. In 2007, after featurings on several compilations the first full length Bad Books And Empty Pasts gets out on CD format on Rejuvenation Records (Microfilm, Unlogostic, New Brutalism, Scul Hazzards…). The vinyl version will be released by Denovali Records on February 2010. Since then the band wrote the soundtrack of a short movie for the franco-german channel ARTE and a split 7” with Pneu released on Music Fear Satan Records. Grief is my new moniker, their second full length will be available on Music Fear Satan Records on March 2011, recorded by Sylvain Biguet and mastered by Alan Douches.   So far Revok toured in France, Germany, Czech, Slovakia, Switzerland, England, Scotland, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Spain and Italy and shared the stage with bands such as : Narrows, Wolves In The Throne Room, Don Caballero, Amen Ra, No Means No,Taint, Buried Inside, Comity, Monochrome, Year Of No Light, Celeste, Ken Mode, Time To Burn, Silent Front, Shield Your Eyes, Panthers, Racebannon, Microfilm, Gantz, Traktor, Houston Swing Engine, Every Reason To…, Looking For John G., Fiend, Tang, HKY and many, many more.

Youff is a Belgian noise rock band with members of 30,000 Monkies, Crowd Of Chairs, Maze and Mesher.
Known for their energetic live sets and raw, unnerving sound, they keep on attacking the senses, one release at the time. 
The band started out in 2014, drawing inspiration from local exemplars like Rise and Fall or Hessian, as well as weirdo noise related acts such as Lighting Bolt, Arab on Radar, Shit and Shine and Brainbombs.
