SPIT. is a four-piece band based in Antwerp. Formed in 2023, they started playing live shows last year. They refuse to be bound by genre constraints, drawing influences from every direction to create a sound that defies labels. They describe their own style as “Modern Death/Hardcore,” though they leave that open to interpretation.

Fermented Artery is a four-piece death metal band from Goes, formed in 2024. Since their inception, they have been hard at work writing new material for live performances and laying the groundwork for an upcoming album. Their sound is a brutal combination of slam and technical death metal, blended with progressive elements. This creates a style that pushes you into pure aggression one moment, while constantly defying expectations the next.

Following their debut performance at Metal4Meals 2025, the band is hungry for more. They have a clear ambition to establish themselves not only within the Dutch death metal scene, but to leave their mark internationally.
