Harper Fragment

An electric injection blending influences ranging from rock, metal, punk, and other alternative sounds to create dynamic and emotional, post-hardcore grooves. A sound akin to 2000s emo and punk, with a dedication to hard breakdowns as well as quiet melody. Cerebral heartfelt songs to remind you what music should feel like. 

 

Fear Of Withdrawal

Fear of Withdrawal is a two-piece bass and drum duo based in Fort Collins comprised of Andrew Di Tirro and Jesse Aguilar. Our sound pulls from a variety of influences, with doom metal, noise rock, and math rock at the forefront.

Suffer in Truth

We are a band that formed in Northern Colorado in late 2024, starting with guitarist OJ and drummer/vocalist Spencer. We later added our bassist, Royse. We created songs over the summer in 2025 and felt that we needed a second guitarist, so we were thrilled when Kai joined the band. Our first single is called "Cage" was written by OJ and Spencer, but with the help of Royse and Kai, we have written several other songs that we are excited to share with everyone in the Metal/Hardcore scene of Denver and Noco. 

Wastebasket

Wastebasket is a 4 piece Easy-Core/Metalcore outfit based out of Fort Collins, CO. Since 2022, Kyle (Bass), Kevin (Guitar) Tryston (Vocals) & now Preston (Drums) have pushed the boundaries of up-and-coming bands in NOCO since their inception. All the members grew up with a variety of exposure to alternative & hardcore music early in their lives, something they've tried to translate into a more matured orientation for audiences far from the Denver hardcore scene & perhaps unfamiliar with it's roots in Colorado music.

Human Suit

Formed in between blast beats and dissonant riffs, Human Suit exists to create madness. This DIY energy makes for chaotic show for the short time they are on stage. Screeching vocals, driving basslines, and punky drums all contribute to a raw sound that is oppressive to any listener. An unpolished style is characteristic not only of their sound, but of their attitude. The band is not fixated on pleasantries, they merely serve to throw abrasive grind into the face of the crowd. Human Suit is fast, unintelligible, and leaves the crowd feeling ugly. 

Partialist

Partialist offers listeners a journey throughout the various corners of metal music, fusing the heaviest elements of today's deathcore and beatdown sound with explorations into melodic composition and atmospheric feel. 

NVR ENDVR

Born in the winter of 2024; NVR ENDVR has quickly solidified themselves as a regional mainstay, receiving acclaim for their insane live shows and dedication to the grind.

The band completed their first 2 regional tours in 2025 in support of Colorado heavyweights Suicide Cages and Buried in Lies, as well as an excursion to Amarillo, Texas, and multple trips across the rockies to Denver. They played 2 Pride festivals, a protest against a white nationalist scumbag, an old high school, and many other DIY and full production shows totaling 32 for their inaugural year.
