VICIOUS RUMORS (USA): Vicious Rumors are an American power metal band, originally formed in 1979 in the San Francisco, California Bay Area. The band was conceived by founder & guitarist/vocalist Geoff Thorpe, and the band has been actively recording and touring worldwide since their full-length recording debut in 1985.[1] The band is signed to Germany-based label SPV/Steamhammer records, Its impossible to write down a small biography of the band due to the several line up changes. But there’s one thing that counts; Vicious Rumors is still touring around the globe and its current line up is the best for years! Vicious Rumors have set "Concussion Protocol" as the title of their new album, VR's 12th studio album. This is the 4th time MMM books Vicious Rumors but all of these times they had a different singer. Well now they have a “new” singer from The Netherlands; Nick Holleman. A young guy that was discovered by MMM itself when he played his first shows ever @ Little Devil with his own band Powerized (which is still active too)!!! According a lot of people, including myself, Nick’s voice is close to the voice of Vicious Rumors most wellknown singer Carl Albert. Just check them out! You wont regret it!

MARTYR (NL): During the five years that Martyr was alive and kicking (1982-1987), the band released two albums that are considered cult in the Metal scene today. ‘For The Un...iverse’ (1985) and ‘Darkness At Time’s Edge’ (1986) are classic Metal, a delight for those who love strong melodies, speedy riffs and a high level of technicality. In those years, Martyr appeared on compilation albums from Roadrunner and Metal Blade, was voted Holland’s best new Metal band in Aardschok magazine, has toured with several international acts and appeared on Sky Channel’s Monsters Of Rock. Martyr disbanded in 1987, but reunited in 2001 to play the Heavy Metal Maniacs festival. Four years later, the band revived almost the complete 1982 line up to play the Headbangers Open Air and Keep It True festivals. The flame has been burning again and the band continued to play live ever since. December 2008 MARTYR supported US Shock Rockers Lizzy Borden on their European tour. But also the years after that MARTYR hit the European stages supporting great acts like Flotsam & Jetsam , Vicious Rumors, Jaguar, Evergrey a.o. on different tours. In 2009 the first new Martyr record in almost 25 years has been released . That’s when the new EP ‘Fear’ was coupled with a re-release of the classic ‘For The Universe’ album as a double digipack entitled ‘Fear The Universe’ on Rusty Cage Records (RCR0017).
March 2016 saw the release of MARTYR's new album "You Are Next" released by Into The Limelight Records / Pure Steel Promotions. A great album which got only great reviews worldwide and is released in Japan lately. One of the finest metalbands The Netherlands ever delivered; so check them out!
