MUSICA DIABLO

Derrick - vocals

Andre - guitar

Ricardo - bass

Marcao - drums

Musica Diablo was started out of an old dream of playing together, Andre from the hardcore band Nitrominds, and Marco the well known Drummer from Dead Fish and Ação Direta. They decided to take some time off, to join forces, and work on a project which they both always wanted, a trash metal band!

When they were been asked by MTV “Why Thrash Metal?” Andre answered, “Well, that is easy to answer, growing up in the 80..s and listening to metal since the age of ten, and playing metal from the moment they held an instrument in their hands, it could only be metal”.

Their Bass Player Brigas joined a few months later, and so Musica Diablo was founded in early 2008.

After recording some tracks in their rehearsal room, they decided that the band should have a singer. Andre searching for numbers in his agenda, found the number of his old friend, Derrick Green, (SEPULTURA) and he thought “why not?” Yeah, he liked the idea of having a new band project especially bringing back this style of old school metal to the scene and from there on he has been the voice of Musica Diablo.

The idea of Musica Diablo, is just music, metal, hard, positive messages, fast guitar riffs and aggressive vocals.

Musica Diablo started as project, a bit on the side, but with the passing of time, they developed into a true unity a real band.

Musica Diablo has already been interviewed by MTV Brazil, a management deal with CBBM from Denmark has been set, and a tour of the world is planned for early 2010.

The visual Concept of the band is being developed by the Brazilian artist Gustavo Sazes, responsible for bands like God Forbid, Lauren Harris, Krisium, and others. The first Promotional pictures and pre-production recordings have been made, 5 songs can be streamed from the bands myspace profile.

The next step for Musica Diablo is now to shop the demo and the whole project to interested labels.

MOBILE DEATHCAMP

T - guitars/lead vocals

Boe - bass/backing vocals

Cracker - drums

Toledo, Ohio has quietly been the home of many really cool things... The Mud Hens, JEEP, and Jamie Farr (Klinger of M*A*S*H fame), to name a few. While touring with Gwar as Beefcake The Mighty, Todd decided it was high time to switch back to his original instrument, guitar, and find the right comrades to begin melting faces with the style of music they REALLY felt in their loins...

Enter the Glass City's latest abomination, MOBILE DEATHCAMP!!!

A vicious three piece metal band, made up of northwest Ohio, and southeast Michigan musical journeymen. These three metal "war horses" have been rippin' it up like this since the FIRST time this style was popular!

In their short, yet vibrant history, this newly organized musical terror pocket has shared the stage with such luminaries as: Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Behemoth, 3 Inches of Blood, Goatwhore, The Red Chord, Job For A Cowboy, Skeletonwitch, All That Remains, White Chapel, Black Dahlia Murder, Halo of Locusts, Green Jelly, Chimaira, Trivium, Daath, Soilent Green, MushroomHead, Type O Negative, Kill Switch Engaged, Mensrea, God Forbid, Marilyn Manson, Sevendust, and Hatebreed.

Born to "do it"... MOBILE DEATHCAMP!!!

HISS OF ATROCITIES

Mike - vocals

Roy - guitar

Francesco - guitar

Mike - bass

Giovanni - drums

Driving, battering power, a perfect description of Hiss of Atrocities (HoA). Formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 2005, the fierce attack released on stage is an uncompromising blend of high-powered drums, unrelenting guitars riffs and unprecedented guitar solos. Producing a sound both fueled by high-energy European metal and a dose of both heavy fierce vocals blended with melodic overtones that can only be described as an engaging experience.

Formed by guitarist Roy Lev-Ari (Kenya) & drummer Giovanni Dürst (Italy) both hailing from Berklee College of Music the birth of HoA was conceived. Joined shortly there after by guitarist Francesco Artusato (Italy) a fellow student of Berklee, the band was fueled and ready to begin the journey before them. HoA recorded their first self-titled demo and began playing live shows in the main Massachusetts area. An year later their second highly acclaimed EP “Threnody” produced by Jeremy Krull was released, and soon caught the attention of magazines and radios fueling the popularity of the band to a higher level. HoA began packing up venues with devoted fans in places such as the famous Paradise Club, Middle East, Avalon, The Palladium, Berklee College of Music, supporting acts such as Shadows Fall and Diecast.
After completing studies and building a solid reputation in Boston, the band relocated to Los Angeles, California to begin to carve their way to the top of the scene. By February of 2008 HoA acquired new bassist Chris Rector (Los Angeles) right out of The Musicians Institute and the following month singer Mike Zero (Los Angeles) joined forces to compose their debut album “Rituals of the Lost” released in February of 2009. “Rituals of the Lost” is a 55 minutes conceptual experience of high quality metal with progressive elements and a blend of brutal and emotional musical varieties.

HoA has extensively performed in the Southern California area in the following venues: The Key Club, The Knitting Factory, Crash Mansion, The Jumping Turtle, Musician Institute and many more playing with acts such as Ankla, Man Made Man, Flatline, Devolved, Aizen and Mantic Ritual.

The band commonly states “We strive to produce a live performance that is nothing short of an experience for the audience”. HoA is a band the stands apart from the norm and breaks the boundaries of the genre today.

MENSREA

Marc - vocals

Cory - guitar

Nate - guitar

Dave - bass

Dave - drums

Hailing from the muggy swamps of Richmond Virginia, Mensrea was dredged up early in 2001. Born out of the splintering of other Richmond bands, these long time friends fell in line to form the super-organism that they are today. Pulling from a diverse set of influences, the band began writing and released a self produced and self titled debut in 2003. Though seething in the underground, the record was met with quiet yet ecstatic praise. After this they hit the streets hard, proving their worth as a live act. An impressive calendar of events followed, with four years of independent booking and touring, and the band finding itself solely through self promotion. In 2007 Mensrea reconvened at their home base, Karma Productions, and began writing and recording their sophomore effort. Spring of 2008 saw the long awaited release of "Media Coil Interrupt". Described by many as "tighter than a gnat's ass", the record showcases Mensrea as comfortable in their stylistic choices, heavier, edgier, and more refined than ever. Spring and summer tours followed the release, with the band garnering their largest audiences yet. To this day Mensrea has shared stages nationwide with the likes of Gwar, Devildriver, Death Angel, Soilent Green, Alabama Thunderpussy, God Forbid, All That Remains, Shadows Fall, Turbonegro, Dying Fetus, Green Jello and many more. Stay tuned for further transmissions...

THE DELIVERANCE

Grant - vocals

Nick - guitar

Navid - guitar

Travis - bass

Mike - drums

The Deliverance exist is a genre all their own. Straightforward, powerful and addictive. This band is defined by Grant Petty’s poignant melodies, compelling lyrics, and stunning vocals, fused with Mick Kenney’s creative and innovative trademark style to form a seamless, ethereal mixture that perfectly channels the band’s hard rock / metal and classical sensibilities.

It is difficult to define their modern yet timeless sound, an eclectic powerhouse of musical elements, stretching as far as extreme metal, pop and even hip-hop. Classically-infused choir and strings, adds color to songs of introspection, addiction, pain, sacrifice, atonement and ultimately, empowerment.

WODEN

? - vocals

Jim - guitar

Brian - guitar

Brad - bass

Steve - drums

Woden formed in January of 2005 between individuals that feel, live and breathe music, as it is flowing through their veins. Born of a different breed, with one goal in mind, and that is to bring metal music to a new level.

Woden by November of 2005 was playing gigs and building a respectable name for themselves in Detroit and the surrounding area. In this journey, they have never failed to impress, being honored to give their all at every performance, they gracefully give the crowd exactly what they want. Combining fury, raw energy, and emotion of the highest caliber, they viciously connect to the masses.

In June of 2006, Woden continued to grow stronger, after a new addition and a quick change between members, Woden was complete. They focused more on the prize and built a solid foundation within the band. Together they strive on an endless feeding of eachothers ideas and goals, they believe in one another, and within themselves. Now in 2009, Woden keeps moving forward in their venture, giving it their all.

SLEEP IS THE ENEMY

Dave - vocals/guitar

Max - guitar

Josh - bass/backing vocals

Joe - drums

An up and coming twin cities Hard Rock/Metal band, Sleep Is The Enemy have grown in every way since they first formed in April of '08. With the creative correlation between Guitarist/Vocalist, Dave Pickerign, and Bassist/Vocalist, Josh Nickleby, they have grown from their first song. When Joey Radke entered the band as a headstrong and driven drummer, it was a completed match and the band has been growing ever since.

Early 2009 SITE welcomed a new member of the band. Sir Max Havlish entered as a second guitarist and filled out an empty void that was pressing on the songs.

In their area they have played with such nationals as: Black Stone Cherry, The Exies, Trust Company, Earshot and many others. They have traveled around the Midwest piercing ears with their hollow needle of hard rock.

SITE have just recently recorded a new EP, "Daydreams & Nightmares" with 3 re-recorded songs and 1 fresh brand new song! Don't get them wrong though, the newly re-recorded songs are amped up and chalked full of tasty new tidbits. "Masquerade", "Through The Skin" and "Eternally" are heavy hitting songs with their touch of compassion, anger, sorrow and everything in-between. But overall, they are just heavy-hitting rock and metal. The newly recorded "Just Another" is catchy and driving, said some who previewed the song. "It makes you want to stand up on a table and shout along!" This EP should be out sometime this summer!

SITE is dedicated to giving its fans amazing music and an even better live show!

"SITE wants to see as many people as they can at their shows and they want their music to circulate to everyone, everyone counts, everyone matters. The fans make the music, SITE are the orchestrators of your drive and need. SITE care for their fans a great deal, and none of this would be possible without them. THANK YOU!!" ~ Sleep Is The Enemy

DBM Records offers great services like distribution by all means and media through any and all internet consumer stores (e.g. ITunes, Dirtbag Music, Amazon, Rhapsody ). DBM Records main goal is to get bands on a major label, so artist's can cancel their contract at any moment. Threat Level is also booking strongly, 6-10 shows a month, to become a Jagermeister sponsored band.

Threat Level in 2006 were the only non "Lone Star State" band to perform at DIMEFEST in memory of Dimebag Darrell at the Ridglea Theater in Dallas, Texas. In 2007 they released their rull length CD "A WORLD BEYOND DEVASTATION" and also opened up for Hellyeah, OTEP and Bloodsimple at the Murat Egyption Room in Indianapolis on Halloween night. In 2008 they played the Indianapolis Metal Fest 2 in support of Divine Heresy, Kittie, Ekotren, Mustache and Woe Of Tyrants. Then closing the year with the rock band Jackyl at a maximum capacity crowd of 1,500 people at the 8 Second Saloon in Indianapolis. It's 2009, and Threat Level have played with Devildriver, Mobile Deathcamp, and Green Jelly. Threat Level are currently working on, and writing songs for their yet to be titled 2nd CD release. The band's musicians, Frank Rapacki - Vocals, Troy Welch - Guitar, Chad Smith - Drums, and Jason Weaver - Bass, are dedicated to their craft and put on a great show. Their music is full of fast tempos, plenty of thump, dangerous break downs, catchy rhythms, raging vocals, killer solos and "maximum chunk" high gain guitar. The honesty in their music is as loud and in your face as their bone-crunching riffs and scorching vocal delivery. They are fiercely independant, self reliant and down to earth, devoting every ounce of energy to their art and their fans. Threat Level are out there making headbangers proud with song favorites "Stand Your Ground", "Hell To Pay", "The Fire Within", and "Jawbreaker". The songs they have ready for their 2nd release are geared to get you pumped, mosh-ready, and headbanging crazy.
