Midgar are an exciting new band from Guildford, bringing musicians from very established backgrounds into an outfit capable of creating sounds like no other on the scene today. Already compared to the epic melodic grace of Fightstar, Midgar built their sound on four part vocal harmony, big open chords and brutal beatdowns that challenge the might of the heaviest bands. They are currently booking shows around the UK, so make sure you catch this band live as soon as you can!

15th Day are a Rock / Progressive band from Surrey, UK. They don’t like to stick to specific genres, and produce their own pretty unique sound. They just finished their debut EP entitled ‘Back To The Skies’ which was produced by the band themselves, and have supported acts such as LA Rockers ‘Boy Hits Car’. All their songs have a certain unique quality, and are all equally as catchy. If you do nothing else today, go and check these guys out!

- Their EP is available through their myspace priced at £2.99!

Buffalo Alice was formed by singer/songwriter Alex Aaron in the spring of 2004 from the ashes of alternative rock band G.B. Fuzz. Aaron started writing new songs and reworking old ones to make them friendly to an acoustic act under the new name. After many hours doing some collaborating with different musicians, he has arrived at the sound that is Buffalo Alice. Their brand of power pop based alternative-country rock and ballads have a distinctly southern flavor to them, yet remain unmarred by the normal images that spring to mind when someone thinks of southern music. They’re definitely one to watch.

Status Green are a Pop / Rock band from New Jersey. This band have a good energy to their music, and boast great melodies and powerful, catchy vocals. You can hear early punk influences in their songs, which gives them an edgy feel, however they still maintain a fresh popy sound. What I like about this band is they mix well established genres but still manage to sound origional; Lets hope we hear more like this!
