Extrema (band) Extrema formed in 1986 in Milan. The initial lineup included guitarist Tommy Massara, vocalist/guitarist Andrea Boria, bassist Luca Varisco, and drummer Stefano Bullegas. Regarded as one of Italy's first thrash metal bands, Extrema's first EP, "We F**kin' Care" (1987), sold an impressive 3,000 copies by word of mouth alone. Italian heavy metal fans didn't yet seem prepared to embrace local talent, however, and the next four years saw Extrema (by then entirely re-vamped, with Massara signing on new members Gianluca Perotti on vocals, Mattia Bigi on bass, and Chris Dalla Pellegrina on drums) relegated to open for visiting acts like Slayer, D.R.I., and Corrosion of Conformity. Finally realizing that their only hope of impressing local talent scouts lay in conquering from the outside-in, Extrema started aggressively shopping their demos to international heavy metal critics, and even financed a trip to New York City for a one-off gig. The strategy worked, and their four-track demo from 1991 was soon making waves with some major international publications, eventually leading to a record deal with Contempo Records. The result was the 1993's "Tension at the Seams" album, which led to stadium support slots with Italian rock star Vasco Rossi, and more importantly a high-profile metal festival appearance in Turin alongside Megadeth, The Cult, Suicidal Tendencies, and Metallica. The album also featured an unconventional cover of The Police's "Truth Hits Everybody" and spawned a video clip for the track "Child O' Boogaow" which was on heavy rotation on Italy's MTV affiliate, Videomusic.

Death (metal band) Death was an American death metal band from Orlando, Florida, founded in 1983 by guitarist and vocalist Chuck Schuldiner. Death is considered to be one of the most influential bands in heavy metal and a pioneering force in death metal.

Death had a revolving lineup, with Schuldiner being the sole consistent member. The group's style also progressed, from the raw sound on its early albums to a more sophisticated one in its later stage. The band ceased to exist after Schuldiner died of glioma and pneumonia in December 2001, but remains an enduring metal band.

Anciano Anciano (Spanish for "old man") is the debut EP by the Japanese doom metal band Corrupted. Because the Spanish phrase "Horrible: el tren lo partio en dos!" ("Horrible: the train ripped him in two" in English) appears on the cover, that phrase is often mistaken to be the title of the EP. The album was pressed four times, the last two times of which included a different color setting for the album's cover. While the first and second pressing was black and white, the third pressing was blue and the fourth pressing was brown. All editions were released on 7-inch vinyl. "The Post War Dream" is a cover of the Pink Floyd song that opens their 1983 album "The Final Cut".

No Bra (band) No Bra is an electropop band formed in east London, England, in 2003 by Susanne Oberbeck and Fanny Paul Clinton, who combine electronic pop industrial grooves with sinister Germanic folk. The band had an underground hit with the single "Munchausen" in 2005 which was included in Radio 1 DJ's Pete Tong's "best of 2005" list and the Rough Trade best of 2005 compilation. The track "Doherfuckher" was used as part of the sound track to Bruce La Bruce's film "Otto or up With Dead People". In 2007, the Dutch Scapino Ballet based a ballet performance on No Bra's music which toured around Europe. Despite claiming to be "not gay," No Bra's Susanne was nominated as their gay icon by influential British post punk band The Raincoats and asked to perform with them at the gay icons exhibition at the national portrait gallery in London in 2009. No Bra also appears in the upcoming documentary about The Raincoats. The musician's image has inspired several visual artists such as Christophe Chemin and Brian Kenny and photographer Wolfgang Tillmans.
