Their EP and two fulllength albums 'Agonist' and 'Individuation' are out on Shelsmusic and are phenomenal.

Bast
A phenomenal band perfectly fusing doom, black metal, ambient and stoner rock in ways that the world has never seen before. After playing at The Facemelter many years ago they have become notoriously picky about the gigs they play at, so it's a huge accolade to have them back once again.
Bast have shared the stage with KADAVAR, Amenra, YOB, Ufomammut, Pallbearer, A Storm Of Light, Minsk, Indian, Orange Goblin, Conan, Winterfylleth, Wodensthrone, Fen, Ramesses, 11PARANOIAS, Bong, Corrupt Moral Altar, Horse Latitudes, *shels, H A R K, Necro Deathmort, earthtone9, Inborn Suffering, Pombagira, Astrohenge, Bismuth, Sea Bastard, Limb and many hundreds of tonnes more.
Their album 'Spectres' is out on Black Bow Records/Burning World Records and must be owned.
"Intense passion and fury that makes it even more impossible to ignore" The Sludgelord
"Spectres is one of the best doom albums by a UK band" The Sleeping Shaman
"Bast have set the bar stupidly high." Echoes And Dust
Three Thrones
A punishing sludge trio, formed in 2011, who've been trudging their way through the UK's murky underground with a series of crushing live gigs, one EP and a recent split with William English.
"Peppering every song with little sonic quirks, and incorporating an impressive range of influences from across the various genres of heavy" The Sleeping Shaman
