Toronto/Chicago noise unit Urine Cop go straight for the jugular with this split cassette of blast beats and raw noise featuring members of Winters in Osaka and The Endless Blockade.

Black Skies are a three piece sludge/post-metal unit from Carrboro, North Carolina that will be eating all attendees alive at Sneaky Dees on November 23nd with Kosmograd and Pyres.

GODSTOPPER - Empty Crawlspace EP
If you live in Toronto, claim to listen to heavy music, and yet you somehow missed these guys, you must’ve been literally sleeping for the past year. They’ve been playing a lot of shows and scaring the fuck out of a lot of people…

METSU - As The Earth Drinks
Wicked self released EP from this young band. Very moody. Good music for a rainy day.

TEETHMARKS EP
Another awesome recent local release. These guys are like that party that ends up in a bunch of best friends punching each other in the face for fun. Fast, rowdy, and fun as hell.
