Behold...the Arctopus signs w/ BMA

Black Market Activities has officially signed New York City's Behold...the Arctopus. Commenting on the band, Black Market states: "they are an extreme, instrumental and very experimental band that have as much in common with Ruins, Voivod or Cynic as they do with harsher tech-metal bands like Psyopus or Necrophagist." The group's BMA debut "Nano-Nucleonic Cyborg Summoning" features a compilation of material from the group's previous releases on Troubleman Records and Epicene Sound Systems in addition to several live tracks. You can check out some of their material here.

Is it mandatory to have the word "pus" in your band's name to play this style?

Kragg - And what type of style do you think this is, this band sounds more like indie bands like Don Cab and the fcking Champs than like gore metal. But seriously, that is good fcking news.
