Formed in London by former Press To Meco members Jake Crawford and Luke Caley, Unpeople blend ferocious grooves and layered noise with infectious pop-punk melodies. Their self-titled 2024 debut EP earned immediate acclaim from Metal Hammer as the UK's most promising first impression of 2024, and the band has already opened for Metallica in Austria.
Unprocessed are a German progressive metalcore band from Wiesbaden, formed in 2013, known for a highly technical but sleek sound that moves between djent, progressive metal, alternative rock, pop, R&B, and electronic textures. Guitarist and vocalist Manuel Gardner Fernandes is central to the band's identity, bringing virtuosic extended-range guitar work, precise rhythmic phrasing, and a clean melodic sensibility that helps separate Unprocessed from more conventional modern metalcore. Albums and releases such as In Concretion, Perception, Covenant, Artificial Void, Gold, ...and everything in between, and later material show a band constantly shifting the balance between heaviness and atmosphere. Their songs can move from glassy clean-guitar patterns and soft vocals into dense syncopated riffs, harsh vocals, and wide digital production. The collaboration with members of Polyphia around Real also highlighted the band's connection to a broader world of guitar-forward modern music. Unprocessed matter because they make technical metal feel stylish and emotionally fluid rather than purely athletic. The playing is impressive, but the real appeal is contrast: synthetic polish against human fragility, brutal rhythmic weight against smooth melody, and progressive ambition shaped into songs that still move.
