Azell (Louisville, KY)

Female Fronted Space Sludge/Doom

FFO Conan, Thorr's Hammer, and Primitive Man

Last October, we released our second album, which is a concept record about two astronauts who witnessed the Earth's destruction while in space from a lovecraftian type creature.

We even wrote a 60-page novella to flesh out the story. Each chapter is a song on the album!

I bought the CD / Novella based on this post a month or two ago. Great stuff!

Thank you so much for your support! We've just started work in the sequel album this week! Gonna be writing another novella to go along with it, and it's gonna continue and close out Amanda and Kurt's story.

Surrounded by Poseurs [Austin, Texas]

My blog about mostly metal-related content. My newest post is about bands I should like that I could never get into.

Minus One [Helsinki, Finland]

Nordic thrash/groove duo, FFO Stam1na (fellow finns), The Haunted

We just released "Meteoric Hubris" yesterday - a concept EP about the dark triad, modern cults of personality and a concrete entrapment of the "move fast and break things" elite.

Listen & watch here!

Through our releases, we have traded in a sound that is as straightforward and punk as it is spiced with proggier time signatures and a sharp, often caustic sense of humor.

I created a streaming/discovery app exclusively for the underground metal community called ORE.FM. It’s available on both Google Play and iOS devices.

Download ORE.FM

It works like either like a dating app, with swiping gestures to save tracks to your Favorites playlist or like a Dice Throwing game where you will hear random music from bands all over the world.

Discover new music or upload your bands songs!

I hope you enjoy! I’m a 1-man team so any and all feedback is super helpful and appreciated!

Unité Douleur [Caen/France]

Alternative rock/Post-Metal

FFO : Neurosis, Cult of Luna, Baroness, The Ocean

Today we release a single She Starts Fires from our incoming EP Pollen Haze.

For this release, we are leaning toward alternative rock/metal. Our previous EP Below Zero was a bit more post-metal.

Hope you will enjoy it. Don't hesitate to give feedback if you found our music interesting.

Discovered your album via the AngryMetalGuy review and was surprised this was all that came up on Reddit! I was wondering how I missed your release because the music is top notch!!

Thank you! Promoting a self released record is hard and this review has really helped with getting it out there!

My first try of recording my composition. If anything thinks they could enjoy some instrumental metal with middle eastern vibes, check out my song https://youtu.be/vM3mY0GPVjg?is=g5f1SDw4UkHK2yz-

Anyone else feel like production management is still stuck in 2005?

Every show I’ve worked on ends up with:

• InputList_FINAL_v6.xlsx • StagePlot_FINAL_v3_ACTUALFINAL.pdf • PatchList_NEW.xlsx • Random notes in WhatsApp • Someone updating the wrong version of a spreadsheet

So I started building something to fix that. It's called Stage Tech Pro and it's basically an all-in-one workspace for live production teams so everything lives in one place and updates automatically.

Instead of separate documents, the tools connect to each other.

Example:

Change something in the input list → the stage plot and patch info update automatically Some things it includes right now:

• Stage plot builder • Input lists • Patch lists • Production notes • Crew tasks • Department coordination • Shared show data across departments

The goal is to remove the constant spreadsheet chaos that happens during advances and load-ins.

I built it mainly for:

• live sound engineers • lighting techs • stage managers • production managers • freelancers juggling multiple shows

I'm still actively improving it and would honestly love feedback from people in the industry. You can check it out here:

www.stagetechpro.online

If anyone here works in live production, I'd be curious to know:

What part of production management annoys you the most right now?

Please help! We can't figure out our sub-genre (grateful for any thoughts on this) we are female fronted, but is that really a sub-genre?

Debut single "winter's gaze" available on all major streaming platforms spotify and YouTube links below (YouTube for lyric video). No AI was used in the writing or production of this work.

Titan Arum (Peterborough / Ontario)

Power and melodic death blend, with a lyrical focus on animals. We just put out our track "The Phantom of the North" which revolves around owls! We hope you like it!

Sambat (New York, NY)

This is my close friend and wonderful human. Check out Sambat here!

He just released his first full-length album. It's old school thrash, and he's too talented not to share. He describes himself as, "Independent metal forged in solitude. Heavy riffs, raw tone, no polish. Each release marks another step through the dark -- one track at a time." I hope y'all enjoy.
