Dawnbringer began in Pennsylvania in the mid-90s. Since then, the group has released four full-length albums, with the fifth, Into the Lair of the Sun God, due for release in May 2012 via Profound Lore. The group very rarely plays live, with this being its fourth performance in 15 years. Dawnbringer’s music can only be described as heavy metal, as it combines elements from the genre’s entire spectrum into its own melodic and meditative forms. This show will serve as Dawnbringer’s record release show.

Bible of the Devil is a four-piece high-intensity Rock n’ Roll Metal band from Chicago,Illinois. With numerous albums and 7″ singles to their credit, the band has carved themselves quite a niche in the heavy rock underground over the past 13 years as carriers of the flame of classic, loud, hook-filled guitar rock, yet with their own modern interpretation. The band has toured the United States and mainland Europe extensively during this period, and continue to do so in 2012, whether or not Mayan predictions of an apocalypse prove to be true. Their latest record, For the Love of Thugs and Fools, will be released this spring on Rome, Italy’s Cruz Del Sur Music.

Borrowed Time means simply that, a certain feeling from a specific time and place, lost in the vacuum of the mockingly cyclical forward march. Many others have come forward in an attempt to capture the feeling of early ethereal Heavy Metal: few have succeeded and many have caused various annoyances. Fixated on delivering archaic hard rock scripture, Borrowed Time remains sequestered in a hidden think tank with the sole mission of creating more true metal in Michigan.
