KURO:
Hailing from Glasgow and forged in the fires of post-lockdown discontent, KURO creates an In-Your-Face alternative metal sound combined from a whirlwind of influences — varying from the gritty rock mastery of Nine Inch Nails to the bounce of the nu metal era... The result is a sonic and visual assault that is utterly their own.
Having recently played main support for Genitorturers and Combichrist, not to mention their own sold out hometown headline shows, KURO have taken their live experience to intense levels.
Ruena:
Meet Rue•Na - Half venomous rage, half haunting grace. From guttural screams to ethereal melodies, her raw story telling is weaved between nu-metal guitars and stomping bass lines to create a genre-blending sound. Playing live is where she truly comes alive - so get ready to unleash.
NOST:
NOST is a London-based alt-rock group fusing heavy guitars, electronic landscapes, and catchy dark pop hooks into a sound that’s both cinematic and emotionally raw. Formed in 2024, they are building a sound that resonates at the intersection of vulnerability and aggression. A space where emotion becomes frequency — as if it's always been there, waiting to be unearthed.
Into The Dark:
The ultimate fusion of aggressive emo and beat driven hip-hop, INTO THE DARK incorporates elements from across genres, injecting trap metal, hardcore punk, psychedelic electronics and even the polished k-pop punch into their music. Despite some similarities to the Nu-Metal and Rap rock genres, INTO THE DARK are something wholly unique and refuse to be boxed in. The band's name is a self-imposed, constant reminder to always keep pushing forward into the unknown.
