New signings to the roster!
Posted on March 2, 2012
Time for some news, and boy are we proud. We are not just announcing one new signing to our roster, but four new ones (although some have been on-line for a bit already). Here we go with our latest additions in brutality!
First of all we are extremely proud to have the Dutch death metal monster Houwitser on our roster. This outfit, formed in 1997, has just reorganized itself with original vocalist Mike van Mastrigt (ex-Sinister) and are ready to be the death metal commando squad they always were. Already working on their sixth full length and just back from a small Russian tour, they will be setting stages on fire for a good time to come!
They have been on our site for a little while now, but we are still very keen to make known that the Norwegian slam death metal band Kraanium joined our roster. These slamming brutal dudes have already performed on many fests and will continue doing so for the rest of this year. A plan for a tour in 2013 is also in the works.
Also the German slam death metal band Begging For Incest is in our ranks, this trio will get any crowd running around in a circle and doing the chop move. A provocative name combined with tight and brutal slam death makes for a powerful combo, something most lovers of of slam will highly agree with. Mosh!
And last but very certainly not least, the German band Bitterness Exhumed who made a super smashing impression at last year’s Bloodshed Fest. These guys have found a way to combine hardcore with sludge, math and grind, mould it into one smashing sound and manage to blow you completely away when they’re on stage. Haters can hate, but real music lovers will receive these guys with open arms, as have we.

Daniël Blage
Posted on February 1, 2012
Dear friends,
We are very sad to announce that our dear friend Daniel Blage, suddenly
pased away last friday at 11:00 pm.
We received the message last saturday, and where deeply shocked. We will
dearly miss him.
after all the years he organized so many shows for all the grindcore
tours we did with doomstar bookings.
This year he would have played Bloodshed Festival with his band, Life
Ends. And I was looking forward to see him grind and party!
We wish his family and friends all the strength and power they need.
Daniel, you won't be forgotten, you will be always in our heart!

Ulcerate, Svart Crown en Serotonin
Posted on January 13, 2012
Op 3 februari 2012 zullen Ulcerate (NZ), Svart Crown (FR) en Serotonin (NL) spelen via Fortarock in podium Merleyn in Nijmegen. Klik hier voor meer informatie.
Het uit Nieuw Zeeland afkomstige Ulcerate was vorig verantwoordelijk voor een van de meest opmerkelijke deathmetal releases van het jaar. De dissonante gitaarpartijen en hoekige ritmes op 'The Destroyers Of All' doen bij vlagen denken aan Deathspell Omega, maar ten op zichte van voorgaand werk is er nog een element toegevoegd: doom. Het levert apocalyptische, technische deathmetal op die bij vlagen klinkt als een Neurosis op volle snelheid, want daar waar andere postmetal bands het vaak moeten hebben van de groove dendert Ulcerate door. De blastbeats in combinatie met het gitaarwerk en ruige zangwerk maken van Ulcerate een band die het genre van een broodnodige impuls voorziet.
Svart Crown tapt uit een iets ander vaatje. De Franse band, die de platen uitbrengt op Listenable, voegt meer black invloeden toe aan de deathmetal zoals Behemoth dat ook tracht te doen. Dynamische, vakkundig opgebouwde songs die met de nodige rauwe bevlogenheid de wereld ingeslingerd wordt. 'Witnissing The Fall' uit 2010 is het laatste wapenfeit van de band. De kans is groot dat er ten tijde van het optreden een nieuw album in de bakken ligt.
