- MOAM on the show announcement.
From the bustling NJ metal scene comes Monument of a Memory, a group with great things in both their rearview and the horizon. With blistering guitars, head-bobbing breakdowns, and visceral vocals, Monument of a Memory's metalcore mastery is undeniable. This 5-piece made waves for the better part of a decade, culminating in a remarkable debut album in 2022, Harmony In Absolution which saw Monument of a Memory fire on all cylinders and make a significant impact. Charting on the Billboard Top 200 Albums and reaching #16 for Top New Artist/Current Hard Music, listeners can't get enough of the act. Monument of a Memory meshes a modern metalcore sound with clear-cut inspiration from the genre's past. You can stream Harmony In Absolution here.
ANIMÅRUM, based in Union City, New Jersey, began in the summer of 2019 when Leart Begolli (Guitar/Vocals), Kevin Chiliquinga (Guitar/Vocals), and Christian Fajardo (Drums) gathered at Kevin’s rehearsal space to jam. Within minutes, the musical chemistry was apparent and a creative match was sparked between them. Initially playing songs from Kevin and Christian’s previous band, Obsoletion, the three friends jammed casually for 3 or 4 months; In early January of 2020, Kevin, Leart, and Christian concluded that the band, then unnamed, should be treated as a more serious endeavor. You can stream their EP The Gaian Mind here.
Formed in the winter of 2022, [NULL] is an Industrial Metalcore band from New York. With a focus on energy and atmosphere above all else, they combine Metal, Industrial, Symphonic and Noise elements to create a soundscape fitting their apocalyptic lyrical concepts. Despite only being a band for 10 months, [NULL] has already made their presence known in NY's music scene with their debuting single "HALO" reaching over 50,000 streams on Spotify alone. You can stream their EP FENCEWALKER here.
In their debuting performance, AURAS. initially started as a solo emo rap project by Christopher Taiano back in late 2018/early 2019 and has now rebranded into a metalcore project with Jake Saravay (ex. Perceiver) taking up guitar duties. Since rebranding, AURAS. has only put out one song, "Rock Bottom" which features emo rapper Vishisdead. The song is accompanied by a music video filmed by known videographer Eric DiCarlo from SquareUp Studios and was released through Spaceuntravel and has already gathered over 6.6k views. You can watch the video here.
