Sacricide
Forged in the heart of their nation’s Capital, SACRICIDE was formed in 2018 out of a desire for the founding members to make a return to their metal roots. The five-piece band takes inspiration from all corners and eras of extreme metal—from the punishing riffs and breakdowns of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal to the twisting song structures and groove of progressive metal—all while delivering the soaring leads and ear-catching melodies from the early Gothenburg melodic death metal scene. Thematically the band’s focus is on exploring humanity’s lasting impact on the Earth, drawing from literature and history to weave together a tapestry of stories that, collectively, world build a dystopia of hope, loss, and despair.

Isenmor
Forged in the fires of the New World in 2014, yet steeped in the lore of the Old, ISENMOR emerges as a true force of folk metal. Like their legendary forebears – ENSIFERUM, HEIDEVOLK, ELUVEITIE, FALKENBACH, and TÝR – they weave a tapestry of sound, blending intricate dual-violin melodies that soar above savage extended-range guitar riffs, while multi-part vocals tell tales of epic battles, flowing drinks, and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to explore the unknown. Drawing direct inspiration from ancient sagas and poems, ISENMOR's lyrics reflect a deep dive into history and legends. The Kickstarter for their 2020 debut album, East Coast reached its fundraising goal in only two days, a testament to the passion of their fans. Shieldbrother earned many accolades, including the title of "Best Debut Album 2020" by Folk-Metal.nl, while the songs vanquished bands up and down the East Coast at the Wacken Metal Battle 2024. Now, fueled by this success, ISENMOR sets sail once more, crafting their next opus while conquering audiences on stages across the land. Raise your horns high, let the ale flow, and prepare to be swept away by the thunderous sounds of ISENMOR!
