RIVERS OF NIHIL + BLACK CROWN INITIATE + Møl + Orbit Culture

Hailing from Reading, Pennsylvania, Rivers of Nihil combine progressive and technical death metal with atmospheric, melodic and experimental elements. Their 2018 album Where Owls Know My Name helped establish the band as one of the more distinctive names in modern extreme metal, while albums like The Work and their 2025 self-titled record continued to expand their sound. The result is a dynamic mix of technical musicianship, crushing heaviness and progressive songwriting.

Black Crown Initiate is an American progressive death metal group from Reading, Pennsylvania currently signed to eOne Music. The band formed in 2012 and self-released their first EP Song of The Crippled Bull, which was met with positive reviews. They began touring relentlessly in early 2014 with fellow extreme metal bands such as Goatwhore, Behemoth, and 1349, and lead to them being signed by eOne Music in June 2014.[1] With eOne, they have released both The Wreckage of Stars and their most recent effort Selves We Cannot Forgive, which was released on July 22, 2016.
