Orialus
Orialus is a progressive metalcore band based in the United States, driven by a relentless pursuit to redefine the boundaries of metal. Fusing elements of jazz, and other genres that they can get their hands on, Orialus crafts a distinct sound that takes listeners on a captivating musical journey. With each track, they blend technical precision, atmospheric layers, and dynamic shifts, creating an immersive experience that challenges traditional genre constraints. Formed by a group of passionate musicians, Orialus has embraced a bold vision of experimentation, blending the heavy with the melodic, the chaotic with the ethereal. Their music not only pushes sonic limits but also tells stories through intricate compositions and raw, emotional performances. Whether in the studio or on stage, Orialus is committed to taking audiences into uncharted territory, offering a fresh and unforgettable perspective on modern metalcore. NRWHL is a Christian post-hardcore band from Prescott, Arizona, blending hardcore aggression with post-core intensity and noise-driven energy. Born from the ashes of the local hardcore scene, NRWHL exists to create music that is loud, physical, and rooted in real belief, struggle, and honest expression. The band is deeply committed to pouring everything into their art. From screaming guitars and heavy-hitting drums and bass to raw, unfiltered vocals, NRWHL brings full intensity whether they’re on stage, in the studio, or in practice. Their live shows are built around movement, connection, and shared energy with the people in the room. At the core of NRWHL is faith. Every member believes in God and views the band as a reflection of that belief. Their music is a form of expression, testimony, and praise through hardship. Christian post-core Arizona high kickers bringing faith, energy, and authenticity with no holding back.
Smile Empty Soul
SMILE EMPTY SOUL is a hard rock band that originated in Los Angeles, CA in the late 1990’s and has stayed true to their brand of “no bullshit”, “real as it gets” hard rock to this day. The band signed a major label record deal in 2003 to release their self-titled debut album in May of that year. They realized huge success at alternative radio, rock radio, and the music video channels that have since fallen by the wayside or turned into reality show networks. After 3 very successful singles/videos, and a gold record from the debut release, the band ran into trouble with their record company (which was in the midst of turmoil at the top levels) and found themselves working extra hard in the trenches, and signed to indie labels from then on. This would become SMILE EMPTY SOUL’ s destiny, as they have gone on to release many more albums on various labels, with their new single “dead inside” coming in Oct of 2025. The band has become known for its constant touring and never wavering honest sound/lyrics. They’ve never changed for anybody, and turned down many opportunities to “sell out” because it’s not who they are. Now, with the debut release being over 22 years ago, and the band still going just as strong as ever, SMILE EMPTY SOUL seems to have established itself as one of the defining underground rock bands of its generation.
Hovvdy
Hovvdy’s Will Taylor and Charlie Martin have occupied a distinct corner of the modern-day indie landscape for more than a decade. Having evolved from their understated slowcore beginnings in Austin, Texas, they’re now seasoned veterans of the scene. Across their first five studio albums, the duo established their trademark sound of twangy indie rock, 2000s-inspired pop-country, and emotional acoustic ballads with strong pop sensibilities. Their last two records saw them processing life’s most intense emotions more openly than ever before, from declarations of love in its many forms on 2021’s True Love, to grappling with loss and personal change on their latest self-titled album, Hovvdy. But the songs of Big World have them trading in overt emotional directness for subject matter that leans enigmatic, contemplating their place in the world through a mosaic of songs that sees the band at their most secure and self-aware.
