CEREMONIAL BLOODBATH

Ceremonial Bloodbath formed in 2015 for the single purpose of creating extreme raw metal that creates chaotic, swarming hellscapes with barbaric rhythms holding the caving ground underneath. This 4-piece hails from Canada's West Coast in allegiance to sculpt their anti-music which began entirely committed to themes of ritual human sacrifice.

Born beneath a black hole in Vancouver, BC and founded by Abysmal Berserker, Faceless Infinity, and Nuclear Hammer Throne, the project developed and began to conjure and include blasphemic themes. The Nocturnal Black joined the project
during the recording of their first LP "The Tides of Blood" released in 2020, which shifted the live rituals to include simultaneous violent doubled vocals. In 2023, "Genesis of Malignant Entropy" was released featuring 9 tracks of twisted sonic chaos, developing the band's sound further.

Most releases from the band feature fully developed and original samples created by lead guitarist Abysmal Berserker, which are often featured in live performances. Callers of nuclear Armageddon, from beyond, decipherers of the unnameable sickness - driven mad by unholy flute and war drums of a sadistic deity - Ceremonial Bloodbath, desecrators of the holy man's moral oasis and extractors of perverse soul.

A horde of abominable sonic extermination come together to summon a darkened scourge of complete bestial death metal and aural abandon in UK and Ireland for the only the second time ever!

CRYPTWORM

Formed in 2014 by Tibor Hanyi and Joe Knight, Cryptworm have become one of the most prolific UK underground death metal bands in the past decade. After several EPs, demos and splits, they released their long-awaited debut full length album in 2022 which was also the last release featuring the original line up.

Following the success of their debut album and a new line up featuring Joss Farrington (Cryptic Shift & Seprevation) on bass and Jay Wintle (Seprevation) on drums, Cryptworm returned with its follow-up, “Oozing Radioactive Vomition”, another rancid affair of true Death Metal abhorrence.

After 2 years of festivals and tours supporting the second album Cryptworm is back with their 3rd album released by Me Saco Un Ojo Records and Extremely Rotten Productions in early 2026. Their new offering injects even more fury and unpleasantries into the already crushing sound they had carefully built, taking things even further into the abyssal murk of the underground for all real maniacs to revel in the molten rot on display. If the song titles such as “Drowning in Purulent Excrementia” and “Gastrointestinal Seepage” don’t already give you an idea of what to expect, then allow your ears to fall victim to the sonic suppuration of Cryptworm’s most malformed release to date.

PLAGUED

Plagued is a five-piece death metal band from East Anglia, UK, formed in 2024. The band's debut EP "Rotting Dominions", released last February, presents old-school death metal with a modern sound, bringing together influences from each of the members, including old-school death metal, Swedish death metal, hardcore, metalcore, and thrash metal.

The material is built around riff-driven song-writing, a modern Swedish guitar sound, and powerful, aggressive vocals, combining hardcore grooves with crushing fast death metal riffs.
