Formed in 1989 by Darren Brookes, Peter Rew, Barney Greenway, Ian Treacy and Paul Adams, and after many years doing the rounds under other names, BENEDICTION, as we know it, was formed. The band was quickly picked up by German Metal label Nuclear Blast Records, a partnership that lasts to this day. Their first album, Subconscious Terror, was released in 1990. In October 2001, they released โOrganised Chaosโ the first album with Dave Hunt as vocalist. Their latest album โKilling Musicโ was released in 2008. In 2019 the return of classic singer Dave Ingram was announced. Ingram, vocalist on some of BENEDICTIONโs classic early releases such as โThe Grand Levellerโ, โGrind Bastardโ and the groundbreaking opus that is โTranscend the Rubiconโ, often classed as one of the most influential and important death metal releases to date. With the current line-up, BENEDICTION are without doubt stronger than ever.

Kenosha, Wisconsin’s Jungle Rot deliver a punitive blend of old-school thrash metal, death metal, crossover, crusty punk and are known to integrate slow stomp melodies into their style. Jungle Rot have garnered a large and loyal following within the last 25 years. The sound and attitude that Jungle Rot have exposed the public to, is one of efficiency and execution. They have never tried to be the goriest or most technical band in the extreme underground, but instead have focused on flowing grooves and infectiously catchy songwriting. After 30+ years, 10 solid full length albums and an EP, released through companies like Century Media and Victory Records, Jungle Rot completed their 11th album during the pandemic in 2020. Jungle Rot signed with Unique Leader Records in 2021 to release their latest album, “A Call To Arms”.
