One Awesome new band in our roster!!

We are happy to announce to welcome a new band in our roster. ALCHERA from Germany, they are from the Bonn-area and has been in existence since 1996 and already released a few items on their own. ‘Era’ is the official debut of this 6-piece. The album contains 13 songs that can be placed in the melodic death metal shoebox. So, there’s a definite Swedish influence within their sound when it comes to the melodies, which are in the vein of Dissection and Naglfar. In general the overall sound of Alchera is a bit heavier though, so pure death metal.

We have a new signing to announce!

TPF agency are pleased to announce our new signing, DEAD SAMARITAN from Finland. The band started in early January 2001. We've done three demos so far, in 2001, 2002 and 2004. The year 2005 was spent doing gigs, after that we had to take long hiatus because of line-up changes, studying etc. In late 2008 Marko and Janne started slowly rehearsing again and found out, that playing was fun again. In 2009 two new members, guitarist Matti and bassist Eero were recruited to the ranks. We have also recently recruited a new singer, Valendis Suomalainen, who is known from the band Herem.

In February/March 2010 we recorded four new songs with the assistance of Henri Virsell. Upping the ante is the name of the game...

BIOGRAPHY

Foreshadow, a musical group that blends the core genres of death metal, black metal, old school thrash metal, and a minute level of metal core, to create their own, unique sound, has begun to deliver a plethora of lyrical and melodic genius to the world; foretelling the turn of this generations appreciation of raw music and solid performances. Reigning from their infamous hometown of Tampa, Florida, Foreshadow uses their vocal and instrumental influences to comment heavily upon the lies that have enveloped as truth amongst the general population; specifically regarding the limitations that humanity has placed upon itself, under the surfaces of religion, politics, and various means of propaganda. Influenced by such mainstream artists who include Slayer, Metallica, Mudvayne, and Pantera, Foreshadow has already begun the framework and lyrical landscaping for their debut, studio LP, "Nations of Failure". Foreshadows music album spawns an underlying homage to Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, and the bassist for Primus Les Claypool; all of whom have served as inspiration for various members of the band. Band members, Daniel (vocalist), Aaron Robinson (guitarist), Richard Hudson (drummer), and Nathan (bassist), have been united under Foreshadow umbrella since January of 2008. Individually and collectively, alike, the band in extremely familiar to stage performance. Having opened for international death metal band, Dying Fetus, at The Brass Mug, as well as playing Fall Fest in Miami, Florida. Ultimately, the group wishes to inform, motivate, and enlighten the mind set of their fans and fellow listeners through collaboration of a cross country tour, which shall promote the unyielding possibilities that their debut album shall present to them as a band, and to individuals of the world.

BIOGRAPHY

Although Vigour became more active as a band since 2005, the story actually goes back in late 2000, when Nathir (bass, vocals) and Heretic (guitars), after quitting their local band, started a black metal project named "Hybrid Vigour". The first songs were soon composed, but it was difficult to find members to join them. Many participated in the project but none as a permanent member. That was until 2005, when Deathmass (drums) and G. (guitars) joined them. Unfortunately, at that time Heretic due to personal reasons had to quit so Nathir took over the guitars.

In the summer of 2007 Vigour decided to record 8 songs intending to release them as a full length album, with the co-operation of REKTOR as the sound engineer. It was during the recordings that the band's name changed to "Vigour".

In the summer of 2008 David (bass) joined the band as a permanent member and Nathir took over the vocals. In late 2010 Jan replaced Deathmass behind the drums and Kostas joined Vigour as the new lead guitarist. For the time being the band is about to complete the prosedure of releasing the debut album entitled "No Gods To Praise".

BIOGRAPHY

"The final damning darkness began in 2010 when the four aliases; A.H, Svetovid, Witch-Doctor and Christmolestor joined forces, united by a shared need for extreme music. The lineup was solidified from the start and a shared vision born of the occult, philosophy, and blackened music soon bore fruit in the form of the first, untitled demo. After a few live performances and some fine-tuning to the sludgy sound the second outing, MIR, was given birth in the summer of 2011.

That which is and that which is not are two inseparable halves of a single cosmic whole. The darkness and the light are naught without the other."

BIOGRAPHY

On spring 2008 Abyss started to look for musicians for his new project which he’d been planning for a while. Abyss knew bass player Ardath from his previous projects, so he asked if he was interested of new musical challenges. Ardath joined immediately. Abyss posted an ad to internet where he was looking for musicians for Dark Metal band. Several applications came, but the most interesting of them was a message from a singer – even Abyss wasn’t even looking for one. He decided to meet the singer anyway and after few short discussions, the new vocalist was Mojo. When Mojo realized what kind of music they were talking about, he dragged Ripper along him. A Drummer from his old band as he knew Ripper was the guy for the job. In fall 2009 the band started rehearsing and had little challenges ‘cause they had no second guitarist. Fortunately they got Mr.Saw to play as a session-guitarist. Abyss still wanted a keyboardist, so he could concentrate just writing songs full-time. They found an ad from internet where keyboardist with really interesting musical background, was looking for a band. Abyss made contact with him and shortly Vulvus joined the band. Soon also Abyss’ friend Lily Orlok joined the band as full-time second guitarist. MMD was formed. On spring 2009 the band entered D-Studio in Klaukkala, Finland to record the first proof of their existence. This record is to be used as promotion purposes worldwide. Vulvus left MMD December 2009. MMD has already found replacement for him. Name of the new Synth player will be annouced later 2010.

BIOGRAPHY

"If you call the woods your home, manmade schemes are of little interest. The wide spread incompetence of the press to classify Tyrael's style of music is telling evidence that this sound beast will never submit to the illusion that man calls order...

After this force of nature, thrusting outwards the realms of Westerwald, brought „Der Wald ist mein Zuhause“ [The woods are my home] to the ears of humanity, it has constantly tried to infect it entirely. Albeit the capacity to comprehend its voice being scarce, all around the globe (Germany, Britain, Poland, Austria, Italy, Brazil, Mexiko, Japan, Canada, Australia) there are likeminded who are able to.

No cheap effects, no welltrodden paths – only few know their way around in the woods. In 2000, what hat been fostered by John and Joschka was completed with Sven and Thomas and named Tyrael. Thomas found a path out of the scrub in 2002 and was lost in the outer world, but Holger replaced him in the very same year. In the years that followed, the debut's tracks took roots in the minds of the band and burst rock.

John got lost in his inner world in 2006. During the long quest for a worthy successor, Fabian was introduced to the guitar parts, so that Joschka was able to concentrate on lending his shrieking and rumbling voice to the band's sound. Eventually, in 2008, a young gun would lose his way between the trees, which he forces to tremble since – Mario, the new drummer. With him, Tyrael explores new horizons..."

BIOGRAPHY

2010:
The release of Counting the Body Toll with the new line-up. The recording was made with mr Henri Virsell at his studio. DEAD SAMARITAN also made their first appearance with the new line-up at Varjobaari, Tampere, with their fellow band NATION DESPAIR. The place is very small, but it was packed with people and it made the band feel very happy and confident about their live presence. More gigs were to follow during the year. The singer Valendis Suomalainen gave birth to her daughter on October, but she will continue fully with the band "business as usual". The band also participated on a metal compilation called D.O.P. 3 with the track Laid to Waste.

2009:
Rehearsing and making new songs. New full line-up in December with the following members: Valendis Suomalainen, Matti Viholainen, Marko Saarinen, Eero Virtanen and Janne Honkanen. Valendis also sings for HEREM and Matti and Eero have the band STANDARD ISSUE DEATH.

2008:
Return from the hibernation that lasted for a couple of years. At first it was just Marko and Janne warming up some of the old stuff, but soon the plans started getting more serious, and the idea of a whole, fresh new start came up.

2007:
On hiatus.

2006:
In the beginning of 2006 the bassist Marcus Moberg had left to concentrate to his guitar duties in DEAD IN THE WATER (with Putte on guitars and vocals) and the band only rehearsed like once. Since Marko was quite drained out of energy, Eetu had some new furious song ideas, but Marko had too much to do at work and getting his studies finished, so the band just went on a hiatus.

2005:
The Bone Hill Revelation demo had so much positive attention, it also caught the eye of many gig organizers. So the year was more or less spent on doing gigs. Later that same year Jussi Leppänen had to leave the band and the guitarist Eetu Tingander (now the bassist/vocalist of NATION DESPAIR fame) was recruited. DEAD SAMARITAN played their last gig before the hiatus in Hämeenlinna at the Rocklinna Metal Fest with him.

2004:
Much more intense rehearsing and the result was the first demo Bone Hill Revelation under the new band name. The positive reactions from the media and the audience surprised the band, and it deserved them a lot of good attention.

2003:
The band replaced Teemu with Jussi Leppänen on the second guitar and soon they changed the name to DEAD SAMARITAN. New songs seemed to be a lot tighter and more rehearsal time was spent.

2002:
More rehearsing was done and the second demo called Dark Matter was recorded. It moved the level up a notch and deserved the band their first gig ever. It was played in Lahti at Hell On Earth III with the likes of FUNERIS NOCTURNUM, NOWEN and GLORIA MORTI.

2001:
On 4th of January guitarist Marko Saarinen discussed with drummer Janne Honkanen at a metal festival in Hämeenlinna that they should start a metal band. Since Marko had already played a lot in different bands with vocalist Pasi "Putte" Lehtinen, he wanted Putte to be their throat. Soon they found the bass player in one certain Marcus Moberg (an alias for Markus Maltari). who was also an old acquaintance and a friend from previous bands. Later that summer the band recruited a second guitarist Teemu Raunio, who is also known today as the Antinist of the band SIGHTLESS. During the autumn the first demo called First Kill was recorded under the now beculiar moniker THE BEAUTY OF DYING. Though the band name may sound quite gothic, the music was death and thrash metal from the very beginning.

BIOGRAPHY

In 1996, at the time of “canned beer high culture”, when the aesthetics of brachial music still sounded from shredded tape decks and men were still men, rose a metal band from the no-man's-land between Bonn and the Westerwald region – ALCHERA.

Not patched together for the short term, but grown and matured in the band’s very own style, the addiction to speed, pressure and symphonic development connected the band members right from the beginning. The resulting synergy is at the heart of the band, thrashing life back into hung-over Metalheadz with compositional precision and an explosive Molotov cocktail of sound for over a decade now.

Alchera is its own archetype of metal, a hybrid of the brutal twin vocals of the brothers Prangenberg, the dynamic and driving wall of sound by the three guitarists Schulz, Witzmann and Prangenberg as well as the thundering rhythm foundation by Wendt and Pinkert.

The “beast from the Westerwald” takes on ecstatic dimensions especially during live gigs and provides the followers of the metal genre with a fundamental and genuine music experience - unique in style and timeless as a work of art – hand-welded.

BIOGRAPHY

MOURNED BY FLIES. Originally formed in 2006, thrash/Melodic Death/Industrial Metal band, Mourned By Flies came together as an almost spur of the moment collaborative effort involving members of local Colorado metal bands eROTic and Skinned. They have seen some changes within the band’s lineup since their inception, most recently the addition of Vocalist Parrish, and they continue to evolve as both a group and as musicians. Rather than list individual bands that they have taken inspiration from, with their music indicating a seemingly never-ending assortment, the members of Mourned By Flies simply credit all aspects of heavy metal, accompanied by gut-wrenching life experiences.
This gives way to a modern metal sound that includes equal parts of emotion and chaos. The ending result is a powerhouse of a band with a sound that has to be heard to be believed. They offer organic instrumentations infused with synthetic elements, which in turn creates a unique and alluring sound. Entering the music scene in 2006 with a bang in their first live showing, Mourned By Flies served as support for the Finland-based 69 Eyes, a band that has been featured on the MTV show Viva La Bam. Their first live show was greeted with an amazing response from the crowd. They have since opened for national acts such as Another Black Day, formerly known as From The Ashes, who are played daily on Clear Channel radio stations across the country. Being one of Colorado’s hardest working and most determined local bands, Mourned By Flies is currently nearing the release of their debut album Signs of Life, and early responses to previews of the songs featured on the album have been positive and very strong. With the validation of the metal community, they
have aimed their sights higher and are looking to the next step: signing with a small music label and gaining national distribution to expose more people to their commanding sound. Mourned By Flies continues to tirelessly perform live on a regular basis, and look to keep expanding their fan base with new music, hard work, and a relentless drive. And if what the band has accomplished thus far is any indication for the future, the best and
brightest is yet to come.
Emerging from northern Colorado, arguably home to the state’s largest dark metal scene, is Mourned By Flies, pummeling crowds with their combative, yet tantalizing riffs, melodies and vocals. Mourned By Flies consists of Erik Gristle (vocals), Greg Keenan (guitars/synth/drum tracks), Parrish (vocals), Aimee Rodriguez (bass) and Skar Huwig (drums). They carry with them a vast array of musical experience, with an impressive resume of past bands to their credit. The members’ collective list includes eROTic, Skarmine, The Dacron Jesus Kult, Dismal, Famous Bacon, Dead High, Deadless, Wretched Decrepancy, Acid Reign, Angus Scrimm, and Dysorder. Skar Huwig also erved as the drummer on three EP’s for The Mandrake, and (Signs of Life) vocalist Erik
Gristle and guitarist Jesse James McGarvey (J. James Left the band April, 2008) continue to create new tracks for Pseudogod and Minya, respectively.
