Seeing as we all like something shiny and new, I.E. PYTHIA.
I thought a thread for new found bands would be a nice idea.
To start off with I thought I`de put this lot on, see what you think then add your own.

Although they have only played a handful of gigs outside Finland.
They asure me , on the next tour they will come here.
They have supported a number of well known home grown bands including Nightwish.
Looking at there gig history, it would appear they have been around since about
95-96.

Keltic Jihad

Female-fronted thrash/death metal band for those of you who like it brutal and angry. These guys manage to sound very agressive and very techincal, while Holly's vocals have that cold, steely quality that fits perfectly with the music. Their songs revolve around subjects of war and religious fundamentalism (especially titles like "Death in Baghdad" and "Terror Tactics"), as well as more personal subjects.

Keltic Jihad have caused a storm in the British unsigned metal scene, and have been confirmed for Bloodstock Open Air 2008.

"I am rage incarnate, Sword of the enlightened
"Wrath of God" defines me - Holy Fire!
Twisted word of prophets justify my motives
Dreams of greater glory - Truth Denied!

Freedom now bleeds - Brought to its knees;
And paradise waits for those with the faith."

Both bands very good. I like them.

See what you think of this one. I think that they are excellent.

The female singer at times sound like Sharron from Within Temptation.

Dunwich

Best wishes
Eddie

CRIMSON SUN.

My friends band. As you can see on their Myspace they're not exactly hugely popular, and have only toured a few places in Finland. Last night they added a new song to their profile "Sacred Betrayal", and i just love it! They're a young band, the eldest members are 20 years old, but they're starting to sound very good.

Oh, and their new demo was mastered by Mika Jussila at Finnvox Studios. That's pretty impressive if you ask me!

I hate to advertise my own band but...

My music project, there's only a teeny sample with no electric guitars because I ran out of tracks on my recorder I'm just trying to network at the moment.

Since we're plugging our own stuff now...

Started it a while ago, and still haven't even finished the first song. Call that being lazy

Bloody hell, they sound a lot like To-Mera, down to the vocals! I'm gonna plug them on a forum where I know a few To-Mera fans.

Thanks, That'd be great! I'm sure they'd appreciate it!

I was just looking at that blog. I wanted to join but I think it's a little far unfortunately. And I'm not sure if you want a minor in your band Right now I'm looking for people to jam with for my project - my goal is to get a gig next year. I'm also trying to grow my fanbase (which as you can see is reeeeally small), but I think a bit more music making is involved there

just added crimson sun . theyre amazing .
