Fate of Uncertainty - Madison, WI. - Noise/Ambient

Dark. Mysterious. Creepy.

This is what Madison, Wisconsin's Fate of Uncertainty bring to the table.

Don't turn out the lights.

International Artist of the Week: Light Bearer - London, UK - Post-Metal/Post-Rock

Think of a slower, heavier Envy with the same great song progression, dynamics and vocal placement. Now add in clearly well thought out lyrical concepts and other various instruments, which encompass the beauty of each song even further, and you've got Light Bearer.

For fans of: Envy, Sigur Ros, Mouth of the Architect, 65 days of static, Neurosis, Kylesa

"The world is fucked and this is the soundtrack to it's demise." - Enabler.

Enabler writes chaotic, bone crushing riffs, complimented by drummer Andy Hurley's intense thrashing, all of which will make you rethink your worth as a human being.

The band's most recent release, Enabler / Drainland Split is out on 7" via Halo of Flies.
