// NIHILITH //

NIHILITH is an extreme metal band from Southampton, UK. The band's abstruse style mostly draws from technical death metal and black metal, while also inspired by most metal subgenres and beyond. Nihilith has gigged across most of the UK South, sharing the stage with established acts such as Gorgon Vomit, Embodiment, and Infected Dead. The debut album is planned for 2027.

For fans of: Psycroptic, Gorguts, The Zenith Passage, Meshuggah

// STERNUMS //

Sternums are a four-piece alternative/punk rock band born from the ashes of UK underground favourites Gloo. Based in Brighton, the trio, Tom Harfield (vocals/guitar), Nino (lead guitar/backing vox) Oscar (bass), and Harrison (drums), fuse raw, heavy guitar riffs with danceable beats, carving out a unique lane in the modern DIY punk scene. Off the back of their EP Metalife and singles "Already Dead," "Get A Dog," and "Day Out," Sternums have racked up BBC Introducing airplay across Sussex & Surrey, a Garageland Fest 2026 slot supporting The Restarts, a feature in Brighton & Hove News, and support slots including Speakface, quickly building a reputation for high-energy, chaotic live shows across the South Coast's iconic independent venues. For fans of heavy riffs, garage punk, and relentless energy, Sternums are not a band to miss.
