Fast guitars, blast beat drums, and heavy bass are matched with layers of vocal harmonies, ready for singing along while moshing in the crowd. Hints of Lagwagon, NOFX, and Propaganghi are present, but The Corps maintain their own style, telling tales of life, politics, and social issues through the guise of your favourite superheroes. thecorps.bandcamp.com Meantime Meantime is a 5 piece band hailing from Winnipeg, MB, Canada with an emphasis on playing fast, honest and introspective hardcore. Equal parts ferocity and anger paired with a melancholy inspired by the doldrums of their urban surroundings and northern isolation. meantimehc.bandcamp.com Vargouille Five unlikely heroes, pulled through time and space, plunged into a world of violence and unfathomable darkness. Without magic, without grace. These fantastic creatures of the Forgotten Realms, found themselves bored, and anxious. They needed new evils to fight. New monsters to slay. They started a hardcore band. Seems pretty fucking obvious when you think about it. This, combined with their electrifying live performances have brought many into the dark fold of Vargouille. Join them, and destroy your enemies. Remember, “only chaotic good, can destroy lawful evil” vargouille.bandcamp.com RSVP on Facebook No refunds, unless event is cancelled. No exchanges.
