Straight outta Troy, NY, Brick By Brick have spent two decades pounding the hardcore/metal scene into submission — and they’re not slowing down. Since 2004, this DIY powerhouse has built a reputation on crushing riffs, pit-igniting energy, and a sound that channels Hatebreed and Slayer through pure New York hardcore grit.

With seven studio albums and collabs alongside acts like The Acacia Strain, Brick By Brick bring a live show that doesn’t just play the songs — it detonates them.

Straight out of Graz, Austria, Give Em Blood bring a raw, explosive collision of metalcore and deathcore that doesn’t hold back. Crushing breakdowns, guttural screams, and razor-sharp guitar work define a sound built for chaos — equal parts rage and catharsis.

Since breaking onto the scene with their album Seven Sins, the band has carved out a reputation for high-octane performances that hit as hard live as they do on record. Tracks like “Beautiful Black Heart” and “Juco” showcase their knack for fusing punishing riffs with real intensity — the kind of set that leaves the pit wrecked and the crowd wanting more.
