Introducing: Ice Chemicals

Our third French band in a week sees us discover the alternative metal sound of Ice Chemicals. The Parisian collective have honed a style that plays with elements of metalcore, melodeath and neo metal and utilises dual male and female vocals.

Introducing: The Last Element

Dutch hard rock meets nu-metal band The Last Element aim to write songs that are “as aggressive as they are tender and as melodic as they are heavy” and they describe as “heartfelt, melodic and modern.”

Introducing: The Dead Krazukies

French band The Dead Krazukies offer up a hugely enjoyable nod to 90s skate punk with metal and hardcore edges that they summarise as “energetic, dramatic and catchy” – and definitely not emo.

Introducing: Seeing Things

Czech band Seeing Things fuse metalcore with a wide range of electro influences, from techno and dark house to acid and cyberpunk, in a fascinating sound they describe as “dark, energetic and angry.”

Introducing: Imagica

Ukrainian/Portuguese duo IMAGICA have honed a fascinating sound that refuses to be constrained to specific styles or genres. IMAGICA is as much a band as it is an art, filmmaking and storytelling project with a strong visual base that they intriguingly describe as “surrealistic cinematic arena dance metal.”
