In September 2008, Obscura signed with Relapse Records and released its second full-length album Cosmogenesis in early 2009. The band started their first-ever North American tour as part of the 'Cosmogenesis Worldtour' in April 2009 alongside Cannibal Corpse.

Spawn of Possession rose from the ashes of various constellations in Feb. `97, consisting of Jonas Bryssling (guitar), Jonas Karlsson (guitar) and Dennis Röndum (drums). The whole idea of the band was to create brutal and sick music that went beyond all that had been done before in death metal history!

Gorod is a technical death metal band from Bordeaux, France. They formed in 1997 under the name Gorgasm, releasing their debut album Neurotripsicks on Deadsun Records in 2004. They changed their name to Gorod in 2005 to avoid confusion with an American band also called Gorgasm, re-releasing their debut album on Willowtip Records in 2005. Since the change of name, Gorod have released two more studio albums, the most recent being Process Of A New Decline, released in Europe on June 2, 2009. Gorod have enjoyed increasing popularity since their inception, taking part in the Maryland Deathfest in the USA.

EXIVIOUS - 7:30-8:00

Exivious is a heavy metal band, featuring former members of American progressive metal band Cynic and current members of Dutch band Textures. They released one self-titled album independently. Exivious incorporate heavy metal riffs with a jazz fusion approach to phrasing and time signatures, complex rhythms and free improvisation. In May 2010, after selling out of their limited edition box, Kruidenier announced that Exivious had disbanded. This came due to differing schedules and commitments that the members were facing individually. In December 2010, Krudenier and Zielhorst departed from Cynic due to logistical problem with the band that is based half in the US, and half in the Netherlands, reforming Exivious in the process. A new album is set to be recorded in early 2012.
