CHRISTIAN SILVA are a 4-piece London-based band specialising in powerful, emotive piano driven rock. Playlouder was seen to excitably exclaim: 'imagine if Muse had missed out the We Heart Radiohead years and gone straight for the absurd, look-at-all-the-valkyrior-charging-through-the-clouds jugular and made all their tunes into three-part complicated adventures'

BOY KILL BOY are a 4-piece born kicking and screaming only six months ago from east London. A twitchy singer, maniac drummer, epileptic keyboardist and screeching bass player makes for an energetic pulse. The sound boasts classic pop sensibility with a crooked edge and dirty stain. With driving verses, big chorus and a bitter Sting of dark humour the melodies are hard to shake.

ALTERKICKS are the world's worst-kept A&R secret, who formed in the North West in Oct '03. They set about creating a 'frantic guitar sound' showing hints of Love, The Pixies and early Bowie. Debut single 'Do Everything I Taught You' is set for release on fierce panda on Mar 7th.
