Polar Bear Club

Polar Bear Club is an indie rock/hardcore band from Rochester and Syracuse, New York. A demo released in 2005 brought them much attention, and was a precursor to their first EP, The Redder, the Better, released in Summer 2006 on Triple Attack and Luchador Records. The EP contained catchy, pop-punk songs with lots of of opportunities for energetic sing-a-longs, and was found to be a fan and zine favorite throughout the year.

Irrelevant

Apparently There are three artists of this name - a French coldwave band, an Australian hardcore band and a English dubstep producer. 1) IRRELEVANT is the French band - the project of ASYLUM PARTY’s frontman.
After 15 years of resolution of AP, Philippe - the singer backed with his own project.
The music featured on irrelevant might modestly reminded of Asylum Party's achievements but the overall mood of compositions is rather introspective and gloomy. Discography Black sheep (2004) CD
