Flagman

Flagman was founded back in 2015 in Orlando, Florida by Sam Stewart and Cody Singleton,with a goal to create the crispiest, most deep-fried alternative metal the world had ever seen. That is, once they found a drummer. After a year-long search, Grant Freeman joined the duo, turning them into a trio. Channeling the eclecticism of the 90s rock scene with influences including Primus, System of a Down, and Mr. Bungle, Flagman's sound is as familiar as it is puzzling. Through the almost unnaturally logical combination of vocalist Sam's distinctive bass playing, drummer Grant's driving rhythms, and sizzling leads from guitarist Cody, the band has managed to create a combination that's completely unique.

SUMPP

MELTED BODIES

Described by Knotfest as “One of heavy music’s most artistically complete contributors,” Los Angeles quartet Melted Bodies has created a sound that, while uniquely their own, connects with anyone eager to explore what else heavy music has to offer. Formed by frontman Andy Hamm after leaving his previous band 'Local Natives', Melted Bodies earned the global metal world's attention with both their 2020 album Enjoy Yourself and their high-energy, spastic live shows. Combining equal parts post-punk, new wave, and death metal, the ever-amorphous Melted Bodies is now preparing to release their highly-anticipated full-length follow up 'The Inevitable Fork', in early 2024. 

Melted Bodies

Melted Bodies is the most recent perfect example of zany off-the-wall artistry that pushes the envelope deeper down the rabbit hole of weird with gusto and grace. Mixing sarcastic, yet a critical sense of humor-based lyrics with avant-garde, alternative, and mathcore music. Despite their foundation being rooted in the unorthodox, Melted Bodies are nonetheless also fully capable of diving into the extreme side of metal.
