The unadulterated ball of defiant energy known as Fused by Defiance (FxD), blends heavy riff driven rock, metal, and rap with social conscious lyrics. This dominant force continues to rise in popularity due to their memorable songs and highly energetic live performances.

Since their inception in 2012, these Los Angeles natives always leave an unforgettable impression on their audiences which allows them to open alongside national acts such as Nonpoint, Soulfly, The Offspring, Sum 41, Puddle of Mudd, Crazytown, Fear Factory, Eyes Set To Kill, Buckcherry, P.O.D., Alien Ant Farm, and Blue Oyster Cult. The band also has experience playing festival stages at Vans Warped Tour and 95.5fm KLOS Sabroso Fest.
With the intention of social progress, this fearless five-piece has a reputation for defying the status quo in such an electric way that listeners are inspired to open their minds. This especially rings true in their newest EP Manifest. FxD defines Manifest as the surreal, and often ethereal, experience of turning your dreams into reality. Only by recognizing and taking responsibility for life’s obstacles can one redirect and refocus to achieve their dream. FxD wishes to continue to inspire their listeners to adjust, grow, and push forward until their dreams come to fruition.

Conquer Divide Reveal Stunning Video For “N E W H E A V E N”


N E W H E A V E N was born out of the idea that you’ll never be satisfied with what you have if you don’t define your expectations,” the band offers. “We got together in Atlanta with Johnny Andrews for this one, and he’s a musical mad scientist. We played with religious metaphors, although the song is not about religion. You throw your whole life into something, and then you finally reach the pinnacle and get to pull the proverbial curtain back, but it’s not what you expected at all. So now you need a new high to chase. We did crowd-sourced gang vocals on this one, and it was fun to make that come together.”

As for the accompanying video, the band shares, “This video was sort of a continuation from last music video where in the opening scene you see the Grim Reaper take his hood off to reveal he is now the priest overseeing the funeral. Kia figuratively ‘went to heaven’ and came back after realizing heaven wasn’t what it was cracked up to be.”

POLARIS share brand new single/video ‘Nightmare’


Sydney melodic metalcore outfit Polaris return today armed with a ferocious new single and video Nightmare.

Nightmare is taken from the group’s impending new album Fatalism, due out on September 1 via Resist Records in Australia and SharpTone Records for the rest of the world.

Featuring an equally ominous music video capturing the track’s dystopian themes, Nightmare also pays tribute to the recent devastating loss in the Polaris family, as drummer and lyricist Daniel Furnari explains: “We created this video with our friend Ben Wrigley, AKA Third Eye Visuals, who found some amazing locations and imagery to help us convey the track when paired with his brilliant editing skills. This was the second of three music videos we filmed with Ryan earlier this year. It has been a challenging and very emotional task to complete these videos in light of what has happened, but after careful discussion with his family we collectively felt that we wanted to share with the world the final things that Ryan created with us. We will proudly cherish the memories of him contained in this footage, and hope you will too.”
