Arizona based sludge/punk band founded in 2011. The group was formed by brothers Zyon and Igor Cavalera, whose father is not completely unknown Max Cavalera (SOULFLY, SEPULTURA). LODY KONG is prepared to continue to hold high the banner of the family with a raw and frantic sound where they tackle modern life backsides with a poisonous and restless mix of grunge, post-hardcore and thrash with punk core forming a unique experimental rollercoaster audio.
Their debut album "Dreams and Visions" is out March 25, 2016 by Mascot Label Group.

The Canadian finest heavy metal trio CAULDRON have released their fourth studio album "In Ruin".
Classic heavy metal at it's best. Check it up, their latest Video "No Return" (see below) is taken from the latest release.
The band formed in 2006 in Toronto. They were formed following the breakup of GOAT HORN, with guitarist Brandon Wars leaving to form a new band, Zuku. CAULDRON consists of Jason Decay on vocals and bass, Ian Chains on guitar and Myles Deck on Drums.
CAULDRON is considered a part of the New Wave Of Traditional Heavy Metal (NWOTHM) an ongoing movement that in recent years has seen the return of traditional-sounding metal bands (similar to the Swedish Sleaze metal revival). The name is taken from the New wave of British heavy metal, which the movement strongly identifies with. Other bands considered part of the movement include WHITE WIZZARD, ENFORCER, SKULL FIST, STEEL WING and more recently SONS OF LIOTH.
To celebrate the album release, CAULDRON will embark on a U.S./Canadian tour with Swedish ENFORCER, WARBRINGER and EXMORTUS in January/February 2016

THE CANYON OBSERVER is a five-member post/noise/sludge metal band from Ljubljana, Slovenia. They involve sheer primal agression and atmospheric noise escapades in their music. The band shared stages with bands like RUSSIAN CIRCLES, ROSETTA, GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT, AHAB.
The band also made quite an impression with their cover of NIRVANAs Territorial Pissings that was made for the 20th anniversary of "Nevermind". In October 2011 they released their first EP, "Chapter I: The Current of Her Ocean Brings Me to My Knees". Exactly a year later another EP, "Chapter II: These Binds Will Set You Free, followed". It saw the band’s expansion of the previous heavy, nasty noise with inclusions of progressive and even more daring concepts. They just released a new album, their first full-length, called "FVCK". Available Vinyl, digitally and on CD. Released by KAPA Records in cooperation with Vox Project.
FVCK is the embodiment of senses overcome with animalistic overload that turns them into nonsensical pleasures of nothingness. FVCK is cruel, merciless lust that devours the body with the power of a thousand orgasms. This time, it features even more horror-like screams, more fearsome growls and creepier chantings by Matic Babič. Darker guitars, heavier riffs and more intriguing entwinings of string by Gašper Letonja and Miloš Miloševič. More atomic booms, more vociferous rituals and lower frequencies of the rhythm section, bass player Nik Franko and drummer Simon Intihar.
Today's tune "All of Her, Mine" is recorded Live at Stara Elektrarna Ljubljana, November 20th, 2015. The tune is taken form the latest release "FVCK", enjoy!
