Striking Death http://www.myspace.com/strikingdeathband

Striking Death begon op 11/09/2010 als 4 vrienden van rond de 17 jaar oud die hielden van feesten.Ze beslisten om een band op te richten en te repeteren in de garage van de gitarist. de line-up was: ‘Tim Nonneman’ bass en vocals, ‘Lowie Van Roosbroeck’ rythm guitar, ‘Jonathan Verstrepen’ lead guitar, ‘Gwen Van Sande’ Drums.Na 6 repetities konden deze lelijke nichten al hun eerste gig spelen in Killburg (Little Devil café) mogelijk gemaakt door hun huidige freelance manager: Patchman Spandex Marco.Na ongeveer een jaar spelen wilde Tim een andere richting uit en stapte uit de band. Het duurde niet lang voor ze hun nieuwe vocalist hadden gevonden : Moshrat (Quinten Roegiers) wat een voor de hand liggende keuze was. Ze vonden ook een nieuwe bassist: Mathieu Trobec. Nu Striking Death terug compleet is ’they are ready to make your face melt’!

Evil Invaders is een belgische speedmetalband die in 2007 werd opgericht door Jöe Anus (gitaar / vocals) en Agent Stavröz ( gitaar ). al gauw werd Speedfreak Frey aangenomen als drummer. het eerste jaar werd er tevergeefs gezocht naar een bassist en dus bleef het maar bij wat jammen. midden 2008 werd Steve Tomsin dan aangesteld als bassist. in januari 2009 vond zich het eerste optreden plaats en in Mei werd de eerste demo tape gereleased. na alle optredens in 2009 werd Steve buitengegooid en werd hij vervangen door Pussymagnet Alain. in 2010 wordt de eerste demo heruitgegeven met op de B kant een live recording van het optreden op Bloody roots fest in 2009 (het eerste optreden met Pussymagnet Alain). In Oktober 2010 wordt Agent Stavröz vervangen door Sam Lemmens (ook gitarist van thrash metal band Fallout). Met deze line up werden een paar nummer opgenomen en op een compilatie cd van dios records gezet. (albert fish, victim of sacrifice en speed invasion). Een jaar later in oktorber 2011 verlaat Speedfreak Frey de band en wordt Senne Jacobs de nieuwe drummer. Dit is de huidige line-up.
