Eths formed in Marseille, France in 1996 and developed a distinctive metalcore and groove metal sound that drew comparisons to Meshuggah and Tool while incorporating the contrasting clean and harsh vocal interplay of frontwoman Candice Clot. Their 2004 debut full-length Soma sold over 25,000 copies in France on the strength of an extensive 120-date tour, and the follow-up Tératologie (2007) expanded their international reach. After releasing III (2012) and Ankaa (2016), the band announced their dissolution in November 2016.

Out of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Eurydice carves a path between melodic death metal's soaring hooks and metalcore's percussive intensity since forming in 2016. Their approach channels the mythic tragedy of their namesake into music that oscillates between brutality and melody with conviction.
Firmly rooted in metalcore, this British actfrom Birmingham delivers clean-to-harsh vocal dynamics over rhythmically punishing foundations without compromise. They've been at it since 2017, and uncompromising in their vision, they deliver exactly what their audience demands.
Evergreen Terrace formed in Jacksonville, Florida in 1999, taking their name from the street where the Simpsons live, and built a durable career in metalcore through relentless touring alongside Hatebreed, As I Lay Dying, and August Burns Red. Their early albums Losing All Hope Is Freedom (2001) and Burned Alive by Time (2002) established them in the underground, while Wolfbiker (2007) and Almost Home (2009) on Metal Blade Records broadened their audience. After nearly a decade without new material, the band returned with a new single in 2024.
