Naos = purzelbaumprogpop meets little rascals-core. Three boys and a little princess wanna push things forward, rent a house in graz and brew their very own music in their small cellar, lump kindergartenanarchy, breakbeats, and pop together, coat it all with sugar-sweet vocals and there goes the candy, made of tiny pathos and big emotions. Tastes delicious and is not even unhealthy... [more]
MAREK stands for the musical escapades by the singer/songwriter, electronic-musician and DJ Christoph Marek.

Formed in 2001, the style of the band first changed from Gothic Metal to Power Metal, reaching its momentary peak with their completely unique version of Modern Death Metal. Superb guitar melodies combined with remarkable grooves and raw vocals accompanied by clean vocal harmonies characterise the sound of Midgard today. Also definitely worth watching is the stage performance of Peter Fritz... [more]
Some melodic death metal bands know from where to take the ideas and not to be forced to use ideas that were heard 1000 times. Those guys and the girl took the really groovy direction. It's death and roll with thrash core assaults. As they come from Austria you can get that Pungent stench feeling sometimes too and there's no definite direction. Really free and natural.

Blasting out of Graz, Austria comes the political hardcore sounds of the Antimaniax. Mixing up Leftover Crack's squatpunk noise with Propagandhi's more direct delivery they unleash no-nonsense political rage against the G8 group of rich nations, neo-nazis, animal rights abuses and many more heartfelt subjects, while still managing to make great music and have some fun.
After their first demo... [more]

The route has been eventful and varied, embracing a rich harvest of musical styles and projects, from leading orchestras and choirs to his late-teen turntable fanaticism, from composing... [more]
