Band Name: "81db"
Bio: 81db was formed in April 2006 by guitarist Kostas Ladopoulos. The idea was to make a modern-sounding group by combining melodies and heavy riffs with folk elements derived from Kostas’ Greek origins. This is music that challenges the mind and your standards of heavy rock. With every listening, you may discover new ways to comprehend it. After some changes of line-up the band found its solid formation: William Costello on vocals brought an alternative rock feeling and a touch of the american sound (William is half American) to the vocal lines and matched Kostas’ (sometimes crazy) compositions perfectly; Filippo Capursi on drums and Vieri Pestelli on bass became the solid rhythmic base of the 81db sound. In the beginning of 2008 the band signed with a new-born label formed by the experienced Orion’s Belt records/RNC music and a publishing contract with EMI Italy. A few months later, rock-legends Deep Purple invited 81db to open their Torino concert on 13 July 2008, in front of 6000 people. With their debut LP, "Evaluation", out on 20 March 2009 for Orion’s Belt Records/RNC Music and published by EMI Italy, the band explores the infinite world of notes promising a 50 min. musical journey that will play and challenge your emotions, ears and minds. In 2011, the band releases their second LP, “Impressions”, recorded in California and co-produced by Sylvia Massy, producer of, among others, TOOL and System of a Down. In 2013 their third work comes out, "A Blind Man's Dream", perhaps the most complex work of the group: a concept album in which heavy riffs, progressive rhythms and folk influences come to life and mix, with lyrics inspired by the cinematic masterpiece "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Stanley Kubrick. The fourth album, released at the end of 2016 on the occasion of the group's tenth anniversary, is a "Best Of" which also sees the inclusion of a powerful unreleased song, "The Monkey". The band has been performing since the beginning in Italy and abroad (United Kingdom , Greece, Poland, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria). Since 2017, a period of inactivity due to the exits of Filippo (drums) and William (vocals) does not however prevent the band from releasing an EP of unreleased instrumental songs, "The Movie Sessions", in 2021. In 2022, the lineup is completed with the return of Filippo to the drums and the inclusion of the new singer Luca Giannoni, starting again with live concerts across Italy and releasing a new album, "Nostos" in 2025.

Band Name: "Fraxure"
Bio: Fraxure is a breath of fresh air and a change of pace to today's modern music. Their passion for 80’s glam music, eccentricity in their style and performance never bores their fans. Their catchy hooks, innovative production techniques and sizzling fresh lyrics deliver a familiar yet unique experience to divulge in. The band began with guitarist Cobain Kemp and vocalist Owen Kelsey meeting at jam night and performing a couple of songs together. The two just clicked there and then through the music. Inspired by 80s rock and metal they decided to start a band. Together they forge a wall of sound that’s as intense as it is unforgettable. Their original music is a rich tapestry woven from various genres, including new wave British heavy metal, AOR, glam metal and hard rock. This eclectic mix fuels the creativity of each member, allowing them to craft original music that retains the essence of metal music. They embody the spirit of the glam era, appealing to contemporary audiences. The band's passion lies in performing for large crowds, and their commitment to delivering an engaging show and connecting with fans through their music serves as a powerful motivator. Fronting the band, Owen Kelsey is blessed with both musical talent and showmanship. Commanding the stage with fierce vocals and powerful he brings an energy that captivates audiences. Guitarist Cobain Kemp shreds with technical precision and emotive flair. His musical talent and ability to ‘think outside of the box’ brings a unique sound to the music. Guitarist Jovi Burton lays down the heavy rhythm guitar that creates a distinctive sound combining overdrive pedals with a stable harmonic base maintaining tempo like a steady pulse. Jack Veale holds down the rhythm section, delivering thunderous baselines that keep the low end tight and punishing, bringing that all important punch and thump to the music. Drummer Joe Routledge brings it all together with explosive drumming that fuels Fraxure’s relentless sound. His energy and hypnotic beats certainly get the audiences raising the ‘Devil Horns!’ The band has released three singles on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music.

Band Name: "Monoliyth"
Bio: Formed in 1998 in Melbourne Australia, Monoliyth was founded by guitarist Mick Barr. The intensity and passion for extreme music has remained consistent throughout their catalogue and aggressive live shows. Monoliyth has evolved from classic thrash, to a laser-focused old-school death metal ensemble, while hinting on a subtle tech-death injection as part of the compositions, a trend that will continue to expand into the band’s future releases. “He Who Kills”, set for release in 2025, is an album based on a classic death metal topic staple: serial killers. Looking through the eyes of humanity’s darker side, Monoliyth’s grim insight on the depraved, is set on killers as a perspective, rather than singling out a specific event, scenario or historical murderer. This glimpse into dystopia is played out over the pounding rhythms, a combination of menacing and intensely orchestrated instrumental passages coupled with unnerving tension and cathartic release, aggressive hooks and diminished based harmonies. Monoliyth is driven by the same thirst for hostility that powered the classic thrash bands like Kreator, Metallica, and Megadeth, fused with boundary-pushing death metal giants, like Morbid angel, Suffocation and Death. These inspirations have been fed into the Monoliyth meat grinder, bursting forth a rancid gruel of odd-time signatured bludgeoning Death metal. It is these aspects, propelled by a brutal deliverance of guttural vocals, that has forged what is distinctly the sonic massacre that is Monoliyth....
