Voltera

Voltera are a multi-faceted four piece currently residing in Melbourne Australia. Deep from the underground, their sound is a sophisticated, emotive and distinct manipulation of the darker genres. Voltera draw on their collective musical tastes to create an eclectic twist on metal and industrial sounds with a predominant female vocal ranging from dark and melodic, to a guttural bawl, thus delivering a powerful and intense live performance. All this, coupled with their unusual stage antics, gives them a dynamic approach to live music. This you have to see.

Corvus

There are at least two artists called Corvus: 1) Australian black metal. http://www.myspace.com/corvusvoid 2) A solo artist from the Eastern States who has two songs available for listening at MySpace, "Arthur Radley" and "Well Might". http://www.myspace.com/ccorvuss "Denise austin once said "you got it!" and corvus now exists. I apologise for my shitty voice and recordings but you miss the point if you think for a second that it isn't all about SONGS AND IDEAS the same way that N*SYNC was more about dancing.
