Artist Info

Alexisonfire

Otherness is the first album in over a decade from the group Rolling Stone declared “put Canadian post-hardcore on the map.” Five guys playing aggressive rock grew to a hockey-arena headlining phenomenon while pushing and pulling between spirited guitar leads, melodic might, and emotional weight. 
 
AOF released four hugely successful studio albums, all Music Canada Platinum-certified: Alexisonfire (2002), Watch Out (2004), Crisis (2006), and Old Crows / Young Cardinals (2009). Kerrang! counted Crisis (2006) among the 50 Best Albums of the 21st Century, alongside undeniable classics from Green Day, Muse, Slipknot, My Chemical Romance, Blink-182, and Fall Out Boy. After Crisis hit No. 1 in Canada, at a stage where many bands compromise in search of greater success, Alexisonfire doubled down with even heavier riffs on album four, Old Crows/Young Cardinals. Released in 2009, it became their highest-charting record in America. 
 
The guys never sacrificed the punk soul summoned in beat-up vans and basement shows. Blending their classic sound with new and forward-thinking textures, they produced Otherness themselves. Jonah Falco of Fucked Up mixed. 
 
As Revolver Magazine noted in 2019: “It’s hard to overstate the influence Alexisonfire had in post-hardcore through the mid-2000s, their combination of singing and screaming setting the blueprint for many artists to come.”

Holy + Gold

While the name Holy + Gold might not instantly ring a bell, the Atlanta five-piece consists of some familiar names including former members of the band’s Norma Jean, The Chariot, Every time I Die, and The Glass Ocean, to name a few.

Friends for nearly half their lives, the band members  formed Holy+Gold, after making a concerted effort to spend more time together playing music, after adulthood and everyday responsibilities got in the way.

In addition to self-recording and producing their music, this fiercely DIY approach is evident in all other aspects of their career, including the fact that they design all of their own merch, their album covers and their website and physically print their own merch with equipment that they bought themselves.

Having been friends for over half their lives it only made sense for Holy+Gold to form. You would come to expect an onslaught of chaos with little composure to speak of. Throwing caution to the wind, Holy+Gold has set out to carve a new path in their musical endeavors.
