For Whom the Bell Tolls Metallica 22 Luglio 2008 Bologna

Dying Breed
From the artist: "Dying Breed -Jason Clark bass, Matt Barfield vocals, Sean Wade guitar, and Chris Price drums, producers Paul Cobb and Todd Washburn for 460 Records. Aggressive hard drivin?, never give up groove, melodic vocals, and monster power guitars."
Visions of the Night
From the artist: "Death/Black Metal with haunting atmospheres and elements of militarism"
Lady, The Band
From the artist: "Classic British rock, Lady were from Barnsley, England. Born and demised in the 1980's, they did a fair bit of gigging around the country but always enjoyed playing the xmas show at The Toby Jug, Barnsley. Almost brought an album out, but didn't!"
ThorncrafT
From the artist: "Black metal with a slight Death metal influence. Very fast, very extreme. Influences include Darkthrone and Mayhem."
Kopek
From the editors: These Dubliners play stormy roots rockers one minute, jaded urban beat addicts the next, and administrators of snarling vocals and gummy guitar textures always. That mix--essentially hard rock cut off from scene and time--can recall BRMC and just about nobody else.
