band's facebook

Fist Benders is a emo band from Lake Elsinore, CA and is almost single handedly responsible for re-sparking my interest in "twinkly" emo. This band brings an atmosphere that is so dreamy yet distressed with all the guitar harmonics and arpeggios you could ever want complimented by a range of soft and coarse vocals that will wrap you up and not let you go. You'll find tracks like "Understanding" and "Run Everyday" stuck in your head all day and you won't be upset about it. This is definitely one of my favorite releases of 2015 so far and i highly recommend you check it out.

release through Dog Knights Productions  and  Driftwood Records

Shizune is a screamo band from Lonigo, Italy that has been crafting amazing releases since 2012. Their newest release "Le Voyageur Imprudent" is a 10 song masterpiece filled with driving and beautiful tracks that will grab you and not let go.

the strained screams over amazingly orchestrated instrumentals create an atmosphere that will keep you going from start to finish. With songs ranging from crashing rides like "Sputnik! nostalgia" and multi faceted tracks like "Difficile da capire, impossibile da spiegare" to a beautiful instrumental break "Orienteering in Aokigahara青木ヶ原" this is definitely one of the best records of 2015 so far.
