On The Radar: The Dislockers, The Purple Helmets & S.Y.G.M.A
Our On The Radar feature continues by introducing three new tracks from bands we previously interviewed and discovered through music discovery platform Groover. Today, we bring you two new singles from heavy French bands and a more laid-back offering from a Canadian band.
Introducing: Ghost Anthem
French band Ghost Anthem started out with an obsession with Scandinavian metal and has developed into a delicious modern metalcore meets death metal sound that they describe as "melodic, positive and honest."

Louisiana collective Led To Ruin have crafted an intense and engaging fusion of metal, 90s grunge, death metal and hard rock in a sound they describe as "honest, heavy and purposeful."

We're kicking off On The Radar with Northern Irish band Final Thirteen's fifth single, Wide Eyed Lullabies, which was released yesterday.

Introducing: Ward XVI
When a band has two members dedicated to "theatrics" and builds a narrative around a serial killer, you can guarantee we'll be intrigued. And British shock rockers Ward XVI don't disappoint with a diverse, dark and moody metal sound that they describe as "mad, eclectic and innovative."

Introducing: Holy Hell
With a name like Holy Hell, it's only fair for us to expect something dramatic, powerful and vicious. And the Canadian newcomers very much deliver on those expectations in an emo-meets-metalcore sound they describe as "emotional, aggressive and epic."
