GRENDEL: After officially forming in 2000, Grendel has seen consistently increasing success over the years, with 5 albums and 3 EP’s under their belt and plenty of staple and unmissable DJ club hits, most notably, ‘Soilbleed’, ‘Hate This’, ‘Void Malign’, ‘Chemicals + Circuitry’, ‘Timewave Zero’ and ‘Severed Nations’. Their most recent milestone album ‘The Age Of The Disposable Body’ marked new territory for them and lead to a full band line up which has raised their live performances to a whole new level! Grendel’s energetic Electronic Body Music & retro-infused industrial rock performances have been smashing it in the US and Europe alike with many sold out shows creating quite a demand for more live shows to continue their gospel of ‘The Age Of The Disposable Body’, you may not like it now but you will!
THE INVALID: Returning after a five-year absence, The Invalid is the electronic musical output of Seamus Bradd, based in Edinburgh, Scotland. The Invalid signed with DWA in 2013 to release The Aesthetics Of Failure, subsequently released Resequenced, an album of B-sides and remixes, and in 2017 released Adrift, a collection of rarities and outtakes.
PULL RANK: Glasgow electronic and industrial experimentalist Pull Rank, last year released a mini-apocalypse of an EP during the dead of December. It came in the form of 'Relic' on Clan Destine Records, an abrasively hypnotic six tracker with influences ranging across electronic, experimental, industrial, techno, punk and metal. An intensely relentless ride from beginning to end, its a work of almost nihilist beauty… ‘Indie 30’
