This is Sum 41…better than ever…

Having recently been nominated by Kerrang! as ‘Best British Newcomers’, the wrecking ball that is The Blackout, are preparing to unleash their potent brew of massive rock riffs, soaring melodies and maniacal screams on Australian audiences. The Blackout are set to intoxicate the world in 2011 and have Australia firmly set in their sights! “The band are quite simply the best in town and shows the potential of The Blackout as a genre busting band.” – Altsounds

The name There For Tomorrow was never just a clever euphemism for the group of artists it embodies – it was a predetermined mission statement for their music. For their first full-length album, ‘A Little Faster’, the foursome from Orlando are offering a clear-cut look into their purpose and direction. Starting from the very first note, it’s a straightforward introspect that makes it easy to see why this band is one of music’s fastest-growing and respected up-and-comers. “There For Tomorrow have emerged in a scene wrought with redundancy and made something truly unique and catchy.” – Under The Gun

Bouncy choruses, ripping riffs and terrorizing drums…introducing Veara…a band that’s currently pulling the rug out from under todays ‘scene’ with their unique blend of explosive pop-punk riffs and catchy hook driven choruses. With the release of their new album ‘What We Left Behind’, Veara are taking their southern mosh-pitality to a whole new level so “If thumping pop-punk with brash, balls-out choruses is your thing then you'll love Veara.” - Alter The Press
