BLACK COAST
Blends hardcore, old-school grunge, and nu-metal, carving out a unique sound in the UK heavy music scene. Their lyrics, driven by vocalist Charlie Hewitt’s introspective struggles, explore themes of emotional isolation, self-growth, and mental health. Produced by Sam Bloor and mastered by Grant Berry, their debut album, EP, and latest single “Motion” showcase their evolving sound - raw, emotional, and aggressive, with pitch-shifting guitars and haunting vocals. FFO: Korn, Deftones, Ocean Grove
MERCURY
A Stoke-on-Trent alt rock/post-hardcore band influenced by '90s rock acts like HUM and Helmet. Formed with a final lineup in 2022, they’ve quickly gained momentum, playing major festivals and supporting notable bands. Their 2024 debut EP ‘This Place I’m Forgetting, Replaced with an Ending’ captures their melancholic, heavy sound. They’re actively gigging and working on new music. FFO: HUM, Helmet, Failure
FACE THE WOLVES
Ethereal yet feral, Face The Wolves are an electrocore duo emerging from the basements of East London. Bloodcurdling screams synthesised with rotting electronics and harrowing breakdowns form their soundtrack to human suffering. They’ve ritualistically destroyed stages across the UK – each set a violent mutation of the last. This is the beginning of the end – and you can only hear it live.
FFO are Bring Me The Horizon, Sleep Token and Marilyn Manson.
