Athens
Hardcore / Thrash / Metal
Modesto, California
Athens, rooted in Modesto, California is delivering hardcore fans their new favorite band. The quintet formed in 2002 under an alternate name, but a shift in members and musical direction found them playing a more heavier metal influenced brand of hardcore. Indeed the band’s raw talent for performing live, alongside their newly recorded EP "The Morning Sacrament", has allowed them to develop their devout and geographically diverse fan base. Athens’ strength lies in the seamless combination of vocals and musical arrangement. Singer, Ray Quintero‘s voice carries new enthusiasm much like that of Botch, early Norma Jean, and Scarlet.

There Goes The Neighborhood
Rock
Prunedale, California
There Goes The Neighborhood is a band all about boarderless creation of music. They don't aim for a certain genre and don't believe in putting every band they hear in a specific category. To them, categorizing everything just encourages people to discriminate against bands they might have not even listened too. They're also about having a good time, playing Super Smash Bro's on breaks during practice as well as making fun of each other and whoring themselves out as much as humanly possible. They think they have an orginal sound but that's really for you to decide.
