On The Radar: Howlin’ Chip, King’s Rage, KuF, MOSAICS & Traverse The Abyss

We’re back with another round-up of new tracks by previously featured GigRadar artists in our On The Radar feature. This round-up brings you a wide variety of new music, from blues rock, hard rock and metal to a taste of 90s rock and some thrashing metalcore.

Introducing: Church Tongue

Indianapolis hard-hitters Church Tongue conjure up a vicious concoction of complex, breakneck, uncompromising and utterly brilliant metalcore that they describe as “dark, melodic, and fast.”

Introducing: A Shadow Within

Denver band A Shadow Within seek to meet, investigate and embrace the “collective shadow sides” that they’ve been told to repress and ignore. The result sees the band take full control of their darker selves in a diverse metalcore sound they describe as “cathartic, energetic and powerful.”

Introducing: Rogue

Rogue offer up a progressive metalcore sound that fuses pummelling guitars, a mix of clean and screamed vocals and immersive soundscapes, which they describe as “energetic, atmospheric and thought-provoking.”

Introducing: Darkenside

Washington band Darkenside joke that they sound like “a stadium rock band that plays breakdowns.” But it’s an apt description of a riff-heavy yet melodic modern metalcore approach that they describe as “powerful, energetic, and emotional.”

Introducing: Common Choir

Minnesota metalcore meets hardcore band Common Choir have honed an intense sound that offers something for all listeners to connect with and they describe as “honest, aggressive and energetic.”
