NINJASPY traverses extremes both fierce and melancholy, creating manic and maniacal raw live shows drawing from genres including ska, funk, grunge, reggae and post hardcore. Newly signed to Zestone Records in Japan, the band was asked to perform at Warped Tour 2009 by Warped Tour founder himself, Kevin Lymon. Their potent sound, skilled musicianship, energetic shows and sense of style combine into explosive performances of unique and challenging music. http://www.ninjaspy.net

VERSUS THE NOTHING - An unabashedly melodic hard rock band, Versus The Nothing is a quintet that focuses on solid songs and tight, energetic performances. Their music combines heavy guitars with powerful vocals propelled by driving rhythms and anthemic choruses. Clean, quiet moments swell into raging guitars, punctuated with crashing sing-along choruses accented by hopeful lyrics. http://www.myspace.com/versusthenothing

BULLETS OVER BEAUTY - This powerhouse dark alt-rock combo is a combustible combination of modern rhythm-driven blues and rock influences. Formed as a means to fill a void by members of Painted Self, A Murder of Crows, CrankRiot and An Oracle, Bullets Over Beauty have continued into an obsession of musical camaraderie. Bringing emotive vocal stylings together with a powerful dual guitar assault to create a uniquely memorable musical experience, they will soothe you with angelic melodies before punishing you with malicious musical persistence. http://www.myspace.com/bulletsoverbeauty

WE THE UNDERSIGNED - Crossing the line between insanity and absurdity, New Brunswick-based metal outfit We, The Undersigned meshes metal and rock, boasting ass-spurring guitars, fissure-inducing beats and spine-shattering vocals. Like a cocoon during metamorphosis, their impending onslaught signals the return of crushing melody and celebrates the union of order and chaos. http://www.myspace.com/wtu

BRIDGES OUT - With members originally hailing from Prince Rupert to Penticton to the Sunshine Coast, this BC born-and-bred group all found their way to Vancouver by way of craigslist. Rock, hardcore, post-punk, dance: all of these elements contribute to the Bridges Out vibe. Their goal is to keep writing new tunes, keep honing their craft, and keep rocking shows that the crowds dig as much as they do... the rest should take care of itself. http://www.myspace.com/bridgesout
