• ROLL DEEP are an institution of the UK dance underground, with a decade-long history as pioneers at the forefront of radical hip hop and grime. Artistically they are on top form, and commercially they have never been hotter, with two number 1 singles in 2010 alone that meant that, cumulatively, they occupied the chart’s pole position for longer than any other act that year. • The ROLL DEEP collective have employed some of the biggest names in the business including Dizzee Rascal, Tinchy Stryder, Wiley and Skepta. The constant evolution of Roll Deep’s line up has helped ensure their sound remains at the forefront of the ever-changing styles of the fast-moving dance and urban underground scenes.• One of the biggest tunes of the naughties is set to immerse us in an ocean of nostalgia with a little help from London’s ROLL DEEP. Michael Gray has reworked his 2004 fl oor-fi lling hit ‘The Weekend’, this heavenly slice of historical hedonism will strike chords with those familiar, while feeling fresh and energetic to strangers as it fi lls the radio airwaves for the summer months of 2012/13.

• Western Sydney, extreme metal outfi t THY ART IS MURDER have carved a trail of bloody mayhem since their inception in 2006. With an acclaimed EP and debut album to their name and an insane online following the band have traversed the highways and autobahns of Australia, the UK and Europe on a relentless crusade to destroy every venue and audience they can with like minded peers in a who’s who of heavy metal.• The bands second full length album 'HATE' fuses the blasting technicality of metal luminaries The Black Dahlia Murder with thunderous breakdowns and the intensity born of their nascent hometown scene; the blackened grandeur of Behemoth and the pit churning groove of Tampa originators Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse, the furious musical arrangements provide a bloody canvas for vocalist CJ McMahon’s outpourings of bile. • THY ART IS MURDER are the latest signing to Shock’s home of priority heavy music Halfcut. Marketing and publicity for 'HATE' will be extensive and will include triple j's The Racket premiering tracks, features in Blunt Magazine, Heavy and Street Press. Advertising in all heavy music print publications including Blunt, Hysteria and Heavy and an extensive online campaign targetting Facebook, Metal Websites and more.• The fi rst video from the album' Reign Of Darkness' was premiered on Channel [V]'s LOUD program and in the four weeks since it debuted has been watched over 150,000 times on Youtube. • Be prepared for the 'HATE', as THY ART IS MURDER will be touring nationally throughout November.

• The UK’s newest progressive extreme metal juggernaut, THE HAARP MACHINE, has created quite the buzz within the metal world upon announcing their worldwide signing to Sumerian Records. Their message and music is truly the defi nitive of progressive metal. Expect the band’s much anticipated, debut full-length album, Disclosure, to defi nitely turn some heads. • Al Mu’min (guitars) states: “Our debut album is an amalgamation of many infl uences across the spectrum and lyrically addresses many of the socioeconomic and political issues in our society today. We hope it will open doors for listeners and broaden their musical horizons as well as spark an interest in areas that dictate our lives. There IS an alternative to the un-sane society we live in and it is our duty to this planet and all its inhabitants to awaken the sleepers. We can no longer ignore the writings on the wall. The time for change is now.” The boundaries of extreme progression are about to be pushed to previously unknown depths and it’s certainly an exciting time for the genre.

• IN FEAR AND FAITH have proven themselves worthy of our attention. After putting out 2 full lengths and selling over 46,000 records total, the band presents their self-titled album. • The brutal parts and soaring choruses will serve the band well in the area where they are most well known - their live show. Veterans of the road, the band has toured with A Day To Remember, Of Mice & Men, Alesana and many more. Finishing up a litany of tours in 2012, these San Diego natives prove once more their reputation as a force to be reckoned with will remain constant and true.

• “Running Out Of Places To Go“ fi nds American blue-collar punk/alternative staples, THE SWELLERS at a crossroads. The band who has toured the world with the likes of Less Than Jake, Paramore, Anti- Flag, Motion City Soundtrack, The Bouncing Souls, Four Year Strong, Title Fight, A Wilhelm Scream, H2O, and more, has recently left their major label deal and getting back to basics. • While a 7“ release on SideOneDummy Records followed their departure from Fueled By Ramen in spring of 2012 (and sold out before release), “Running Out Of Places To Go“ is THE SWELLERS releasing a record on their own terms in celebration of them and the fans they‘ve made in the last decade as a band.• The EP will serve as a precursor to a new album on a new label in 2013. • THE SWELLERS are currently in Australia for the second time after visiting last 2012 as part of Soundwave Revolution.

• Recorded in Los Angeles with esteemed producer Matt Hyde (Slayer, Hatebreed, Sum 41, Alkaline Trio, etc.), Atlas is the follow-up to 2010’s Deep Blue, which debuted at # 2 on the ARIA charts, took out the ARIA award for Best Hard Rock and Metal release and achieved Gold sales.• Atlas boasts some of the most up front and confrontational material PARKWAY has ever released, while at the same time taking several unexpected turns into lush sonic terrain, redefi ning their trademark sound while reinforcing their position as leaders in their fi eld. • Atlas comes hot on the heels of PARKWAY DRIVE’s platinum-selling DVD, Home is for the Heartless, a unique travelogue that follows the band’s adventures touring to many obscure destinations including Colombia, China and India. According to Winston, the DVD gives an additional insight into the album’s lyrical themes, which are closely related to exploration and discovery.• “Reading the lyrics to Atlas after watching the DVD, I think you will have more of a sense of where we are coming from,” he reveals. “The album is called Atlas because it’s a combination of the travelling we’ve done over the past year, while also playing on the idea of Atlas, who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders.”2LP version also available:Cat # 87215-1Barcode 0045778721511PPD $18.63 (pre-dist.fee & GST) SOR NO

• Seminal Florida rock band FURTHER SEEMS FOREVER have joined the Rise Records roster to release their new album 'Penny Black'. The release features the band’s original lineup, together for the fi rst time since the band’s much-lauded debut album, 'The Moon Is Down' (2001). • The band’s formative singer Chris Carrabba, who has put his solo project Dashboard Confessional temporarily on hold to pursue this reunion, co-produced the disc with Jonathan Clark and Mike Fanuell in his own studio in South Florida. The band spent over two years consistently penning and laying down the tracks. • 'Penny Black' both mirrors and expands upon FURTHER SEEMS FOREVER’s early aesthetic, collecting 11 rock songs that resonate deeply with the listener. “I think it has a broadened viewpoint of the world,” Carrabba says of the album. “We had to fi gure out how to take that punk rock aesthetic that had inspired the band in the beginning and grow it up. That was something we hoped to do, fi nd a way to grow up the music without leaving behind the urgency and importance of the music.”
