Albany New York quintet Downswing might not be house hold names as yet but with a pair of prized guest vocalists appearing on their debut full length, that should be something that changes before too long. Former Animal trio in guitarist Anthony Salvaggio, bassist Brandon Jared and drummer Nick Manzella got together and switched their

As expected The Acacia Strain have announced a European trek around their appearance at Fury Fest. Joining them across the whole run will be Left Behind, while Leeched will play the UK shows and Mental Cruelty the European Mainland ones.
