CRACKWHORE
Crackwhore was conceived in 2004 by like-minded musicians seeking to corrupt the death metal genre with cracked out song structures and promiscuously vulgar rhythms. The band worked fast. They played thirteen shows throughout western Canada, recorded a thirteen song album entitled "Inner Piece" and disbanded in just over a year. The album continued to make waves. In 2014, the bands name shut down a fifteen band metalfest they were slated to headline for their nine year reunion- when protesters and picketers fought tooth and nail to keep the band from reappearing. It was a valiant effort that ended in miserable failure and earned Crackwhore the title of "The Most Controversial Band on Earth". Now, uglier and meaner than ever, Crackwhore continues to slither through the music scene, poised to wrap its claws around their next prey. Will it be you?
GOLERS
GOLERS has built up momentum over the course of 4 albums and many tours. 1999's "South Mountain Style" ushered in the classic Goler sound combining most, if not all extreme metal styles with punk and thrash into one cohesive sound. Next up was 2004's "2nd Generation", which showcased a slightly more polished sound and
with these two albums they began to gain a following in their hometown of Vancouver BC and surrounding cities. 2009 saw the release of their 3rd album "Backwoods Messages" which has helped spread the Goler word further. ''In ‘n’ Outlaws'' is the first new material from GOLERS since 2009's ''Backwoods Messages'
POWERCLOWN
Powerclown is Dicksee Diànno(Lead vocs), Sketchy Clown(Lead Guit), Clive Burrito(Drums), Bruised Chickenskin(Lead Guit) and Steve Hairlips(Bass). The greatest tribute to one of the greatest bands of all time, IRON MAIDEN...These clowns have all the right stuff. With chops out the wazoo and enough charm to actually get hired for kids birthday parties, there's no telling what the future might bring for these surly middle-aged heavy metal harlequins. (let's just hope the future brings it soon...some of these jokers is running down the back stretch, know what i'm sayin'?)
FUHQUARY
FUHQUARY started as a 3 peice on "poker night"... (With an inhouse jamspace) Every thursday we 3 got together to play poker and get wasted.. Eventually we ended up with a few songs from always being in the same place at the same time always jamming. Oleg Za, guitar shredding mothafuqa also from the band TO THE END.
Alan K, animal drummer also from the band EPITHETAN. Magnum H, deamon vocals and bass beater also from bands ( but on drums) KOKOS AND FRIENDS, and MAGNIFICENT BASTARDS.
