What Bands Would You Like To See On Nightmare Records?

[Rider of Theli]

don't know why I didn't think of this one before:

OVERLORDE

I realize they are currently signed to Sonic Age Records, but I wish they could have had the opportunity to sign with Nightmare instead. I think they would have been represented a bit better by a stateside label.

 

[BurntOfferings666]

Well, this is an easy one for me!

In no particular order:

Warmachine
Bloodbound
Winters Bane
Steel Attack
Event Horizon
Hibria

 

[poundingmetal74]

Well, this is an easy one for me!

In no particular order:

Warmachine

Guess what label they're on?

 

[Mustang]

I recently heard music by a gentlemen named Russ Gibb . I must say I was very impressed and would love to see his project on a label if the rest of it sounds anything like that I heard.

 

[MEGALOUD]

Well, this is an easy one for me!

In no particular order:

Warmachine
Bloodbound
Winters Bane
Steel Attack
Event Horizon
Hibria

um...WARMACHINE is signed to Nightmare .....LOL

The rest are all good ideas....

I also very much like the idea of Andre Matos' ...any links you guys can share?

Vanishing Point

I know their last album was through Dockyard 1, but I'm not sure which teritories that was for. They have a new album coming out later this year which I'm very much looking forward to.
The last time I know that they were abroad was quite a few years back, supporting Sonata Arctica on one of their older albums. Sonata also covered a VP song for their "Don't say a word" single.

Most of these don’t have anything listed for a label.

OK so I did a bit of digging and found out that VP are signed with DY1 for another few albums. I don't know how DY1 operate, so couldn't say if they don't cover a certain territory.
Still a very worthy band to check out for anyone who likes melodic, prog/ power.

 

[poundingmetal74]

My vote goes to Lance getting the guys in Sanvoisen or Siam to do a new album for Nightmare.

 

[Demonic_Metal_Freak]

Hail Nightmare records!

I would love to see some Australia metal signed to NR!

[KWTFWORLDWIDE]

Magistral for sure, going to see them this weekend

 

[LawnGnome]

I think Symetrica would be awesome on the label! They are all very young (14-21 years old) and have great potential! They should be having some new songs coming out very soon as well :L

 

[Mustang]

Another band is Cresent. I'v not heard alot of their music myself. But from what I have they have some skill and are good guys. Plus many people tell me what a great band they are. Here's a link to their myspace.

wow... I just stumbled over Cresent a couple of days ago myself while looking for promotional contacts in the Carolinas. After thoroughly absorbing their music over the weekend, I finally decided to stop being greedy and share Cresent with Lance and the rest of you... but Mustang beat me to it! LOL

anyway, Lance, buddy, pal, you gotta listen to these guys if you haven't yet! I would be willing to go so far as to call them the next Iced Earth. They're just damn good power-thrash metal in the same vein as anything Shaffer has done. Stop reading and go listen!

I also highly recommend "Sacred Dawn" . Really great guys and great music.
Lance if you are interested in their contact info I have it.

Thanks!

A band that I cannot believe has not been picked yet is Helion from Finland. Great power metal.

My review of their latest EP, Mercury Rising

 

[LawnGnome]

Check out Symetrica's new demo "And the World was Blind" on MySpace at www.myspace.com/symetrica!

 

[_Wes]

Wow - this is a great thread for unmined talent!

Jeremy - thanks for the props for SL - appreciate that.

Some of the other bands are most excellent. Epica was great last year at ProgPower - thats a bummer about the label situation for them - they really worked the crowd.

Prymary - the tunes I've heard are killer.

I'm checking out some of these other bands mentioned. Thanks for the tips!

My vote goes to Lance getting the guys in Sanvoisen or Siam to do a new album for Nightmare.

I'd love it if Sanvoisen got back together, but I don't see it happening.
