With a name that evokes memories of bands like Megadeth, Anthrax, Overkill, and Pantera, New York’s Brotality strives to honor the glory days of thrash metal while injecting a modern twist of melody and progressive grooves. The guys in Brotality – brothers Bryce Maopolski (guitar and vocals) and Reece Maopolski (bass and vocals) along with friend John Haring (drums) – have created a band that unapologetically takes its sonic cues straight from the founding fathers of metal. With tight songwriting, muscular vocals, and crushing riffs in abundance, Brotality has created a dynamic force worthy of carrying forward the Heavy Metal moniker. They cite Mastodon and Megadeth as influences, and it won't take long for anyone who listens to their music to be smacked in the face with an undeniable old-school sensibility. The Maopolski brothers started Brotality in 2016. In a few short years, Brotality has released two EP's, multiple singles, and two full length albums. Their debut full length, “Worldwide Desolation”, has received countless rave reviews and landed on several "Best Albums of 2021" lists. Their sophomore album, "The Woods Will End You" won Reader's Choice Album of the Year on Metal Epidemic, Top 7 Thrash Albums on Scream Blast Repeat along with Bryce being honored with a spot on their Best Guitarists of 2022 list and spots on many other Top Albums of 2022 lists. Their journey has given them opportunities to play well-known venues such as The Bitter End NYC, Bethel Woods Center for the Arts (where they opened for Deep Purple and Judas Priest), Hard Rock Cafe Philadelphia, several multi-day festivals and Stage West in Scranton, PA where they won the 570 Music Show's Best Metal Band award for 2019. Brotality was also nominated for Best Metal Band at the 2021 and 2022 Steamtown Music Awards and Best Metal Band 2021 and 2022 for the Central PA Music Hall of Fame Awards. In the Spring of 2020, Brotality was elated to announce that they signed with Rottweiler Records. An ambitious 2022 schedule saw the band embarking on an expansive six week national summer tour. In April of 2023 they will be headed to Mexico to play Exodo Fest. Brotality has had several singles hit the Loud charts. Foxhole made it to #2, Salting The Wound #5 and Prisoners Of The Abyss debuted in the top 25. A slew of new singles have been released preceding their sophomore full length which released in early June 2022. Nosedive was the first to drop on 12/3/21 and charted at #6 on the Loud charts. Frost Empire and An Evil Presence recently released on 1/21/22 and 3/18/22. For continuous updates please check out the social media links below.

Hailing from the NJ/PA area, Revenants is a band that offers their unique twist to the Nü-Metalcore genre. With influences that include Korn, Loathe, Slipknot, and Left To Suffer, Revenants gives the listener a full-on sonic assault with dynamics to help keep you on your toes. Formed in 2021 by rhythm guitarist Tyler and lead vocalist Scarlet, they soon met bass player Dan and lead guitarist Chris. The band became fully solidified with the addition of Nick on drums a few months after. Since then, the band has been working on putting the finishing touches on their eventual debut EP “Dead Inside & Still Alive”.
