Leicester trio Mouth Culture bring an authentic, scrappy energy to UK alternative rock, blending pop-punk hooks, grunge grit, and indie sensibility into a sound that has earned comparisons to early You Me At Six. Vocalist Jack Voss, bassist Todd Groome, and guitarist Mason Clifford all live together, channeling their shared life into the relatable, high-energy songwriting heard on their EP 'Whatever The Weather.' Their fast rise through the UK alternative scene includes opening for You Me At Six on their European farewell dates.
Fort Worth hardcore/metallic hardcore. Named after the Pantera song, delivering punishing Texas-style beatdown.
Thunderous Stoner / Sludge / Progressive Metal out of Texas.
Portland, Oregon's Mouth of Maggots deal in the uglier, filthier end of sludge metal — corrosive, feedback-soaked, and rooted in the Pacific Northwest's deep tradition of heavy, noise-informed extremity.
Henderson, Illinois death metal act Mouth of Sauron combine technical brutality with relentless aggression, drawing on both the technical and brutal death metal traditions to deliver a sound that is punishing in both complexity and raw force.
Dayton, Ohio's Mouth of the Architect are one of the Midwest's most respected post-metal acts, building dense, emotionally charged compositions that move between crushing heaviness and vast atmospheric space with a conviction that has defined their sound since 2006.
Los Angeles technical deathcore act Mouth of the Serpent have been pushing the boundaries of extremity since 2010, bringing technical death metal's surgical precision to deathcore's brutal compositional architecture within the sprawling LA underground.
Crushing Sludge / Doom Metal out of Texas.
Mesa, Arizona's Mouthbreather have been crafting heavy, oppressive sludge and doom metal since 2012, pairing abrasive textures and deliberately sluggish tempos with a raw energy native to the Southwest's underground heavy music community.
