Rainshadow is a Melbourne band that creates dark and melancholic music with a rock/doom feel. The first release was the demo 'Old', created by Ben W and Mark Kelson (The Eternal). After being pleased with the result, it was decided that a full length album was required. Working together again, Ben and Mark have completed the debut album 'End Songs'. Produced by Mark Kelson, 'End Songs' includes an 8 page booklet designed by Ne Obliviscaris vocalist Xenoyr. It was mastered at Crystal Mastering Studios in Melbourne.

There are two bands called Chaos Divine: 1. Hailing from Perth, Western Australia, Chaos Divine's signature is very much what the name suggests - a blaze of thick riffage with a brick wall-sized sound that at times spirals into hypnotic melodies. Drawing influences from the heavy, progressive and melodic elements of bands such as Opeth, Dream Theater and Soilwork, this quintet forges a unique blend of brutal polyrhythmic metal and ambient contemporary rock.
