The real Dead Oceans, an independent record label based in Bloomington, IN.

Based in Toronto and London, the Flowers Of Hell are a trans-atlantic group of 16 or so independent experimental musicians led by synaesthete Greg Jarvis. Their sound is often described as building classical tangents from the work of The Velvet Underground and Spacemen 3.

In 2003, Brooklyn’s A Place To Bury Strangers emerged on the scene out of Oliver Ackermann’s psychotropic vision.  Often cited as ‘ the loudest band in New York’,  APTBS is known for their vicious live performances overloaded with all-consuming visuals, experimental sonic warfare, and treacherous stage antics.  

2021 welcomes a lineup change for A Place To Bury Strangers. New members John Fedowitz (bass) and Sandra Fedowitz (drums) of Ceremony East Coast cement the most sensational version of the band to date.  John and Oliver were childhood friends who had played in the legendary underground shoegaze band Skywave, crafting futuristic punk music together. This next phase is a sonic return to APTBS’s most raw and unhinged endeavors, pushed even further into a new chaotically apocalyptic incarnation.

During the on-going global pandemic, Ackermann spent his time building this new band, raising money and awareness for those in need, establishing the record label Dedstrange, designing futuristic space synthesizers for his company Death By Audio, and producing a brand new A Place To Bury Strangers EP.  The new EP, Hologram will be released July 16, 2021, on Dedstrange.  Watch out.

CLUSTERSUN have established themselves as a solid reality in the international panorama of fuzz & reverb purveyors. Their cosmic and 3D signature sound delivers massive walls of fuzz, otherwordly reverberations and psychedelic trips.

CLUSTERSUN supported "Out Of Your Ego" extensively with a tour that also reached the US, with gigs in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and other cities of the East Coast. 
They also contributed to the compilations "Rock Back For Nepal Vol. I" (2015) and "Rock Back: Stronger Than The Storm" (2017), both issued by Patetico Recordings (US), and to The Blog That Celebrates Itself’s tributes to Echo & The Bunnymen ("Gods Will Be Gods", 2016) and Slowdive ("Just For A Life", 2017).
