NEWS - AUGUST 2002
RIVER CITY REBELS are done recording their new album. Titled "no good-no time-no pride", the third record for the rebels truly is a work of (punk rock) art.
With songs that bring you back to an era that -no doubt about that- will make us, aging punk rockers, feel all teary-eyed and nostalgic, River City Rebels excel at writing fantastic melodies with catchy sing along choruses and heartfelt lyrics.

TRANSCENDUS just signed a lifetime deal (yes, lifetime deal) with THT Productions few months ago and their debut album "Nocturnal Ambience" is out now on THT Productions. This trio is a really unique band as they mix dark ambient and dark metal compositions. Their original compositions are totally inspired by the random movements of nature. "Nocturnal Ambience" has 9 compositions ranging from calm, relaxing and almost transcending ambient sonicscapes, to scary minimalist pieces of random dark symphony, to the simple chaotic raw metal blasts!
