Starforge

The story of Starforge began in the year 2007 when Andy Suppradit decided it was time to unleash his own brand of melodic death metal upon the Australian metal scene. Inspired by the sounds of the Scandinavian scene and elements from Thrash, Death, Black and Power metal, Andy spent 2008 composing what would be Starforge's first demo 'Infinite'. Before the songs had been written, Josh Mcmaster was chosen to be the vocalist. This was a natural choice as Josh and Andy have been working together musically since 2004 through many projects including grindcore band Mutant On A Forklift.

Chaos Divine

There are two bands called Chaos Divine: 1. Hailing from Perth, Western Australia, Chaos Divine's signature is very much what the name suggests - a blaze of thick riffage with a brick wall-sized sound that at times spirals into hypnotic melodies. Drawing influences from the heavy, progressive and melodic elements of bands such as Opeth, Dream Theater and Soilwork, this quintet forges a unique blend of brutal polyrhythmic metal and ambient contemporary rock.

Ghosts Over Japan

Originally under the name Hysterias Canvas back in mid 07' as a 4 piece, the band were quick to write a 4 track after their first live show played in Mackay. With the main influence being hardcore and metalcore the 4 track Demo was well recieved and sold out within the month. With the addition of Jason-Dean on guitar, the bands sound was now moreso capable of creating deeper sounds and heavier riffs which naturally progressed the groups sound and maturity towards music writing.
