 Often compared to Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk, as well as Lustmord, Throbbing Gristle and other experimental musicians, Portal Dementia is an ongoing electronic experiment using analog synthesizers, primitive live effect(s), sound generators, tape machines, samplers, spoken word(s), found sounds and other devices to create constantly evolving layers of sonic experience. From Space/Sci-Fi themes to dark and paranormal zombie soundtracks, Portal Dementia explores the unknown, ghostly aliens, and futuristic seeds planted in the human condition. (sets include" "Spaceship Saturn: A Celebration of Sun Ra's Original Arrival,"Dark Light Within Realms of the Unknowing" and a very special set -- "Finding Out What We've All Lost and Found Forever."
(featuring Hunter Bell and Andrew Douglas -- with special guests) NOTE: This group will be playing at two locations, on separate nights. Saturday, they are tentatively slated to play at the Pirate Party which will be held at the Marriott UAB - our Host Hotel, starting at approximately 11p.m. (all dates and times are subject to change.) http://www.myspace.com/portal222 http://www.myspace.com/huntrxlebelle |

 Born out of the basement of a church in January 2000 in the backwoods of Bugtussel, Alabama, three upstanding young gentlemen, Adam Callaway, Todd Willoughby and Peter Tubbs, decided to form Selling Mary after meeting years before at a local marching band clinic.
Selling Mary quickly established a sizable, loyal following. The band picked up Clay Gaddis, a talented guitarist in late 2004 and in 2006, added seasoned bassist, Aaron Brook, to the fray. Selling Mary has had substantial success including occupying a prime-time spot on the City Stage’s Homegrown Stage 2006, then on the Miller-Lite Stage 2007 opening for Poison and Ratt. The group has also opened for Korn, Hell Yeah, Flyleaf, 12 Stones, Rehab, and many more. After a decade of extensive experience and after recording several EP’s, Selling Mary released a full length, twelve-song album, “A Method of Going Broke”, in late 2009. One can expect a diverse and interesting sound from Selling Mary since the band pulls from many genres to create a unique mix of classic rock, jazz, metal, and funk crossed with a definite southern swagger. When you come to a Selling Mary show, you can expect a top-notch performance and a killer time with a band that lives to rock. Website: http://www.myspace.com/sellingmary |

 As A Nation Dies brings a new level of quality to the metal genre. Pounding, infectious grooves led by an unrivaled two pronged guitar onslaught combine into an overall sound that is fresh, inspiring, and accessible.
Having been compared to such bands as Gojira, Tool, Lamb Of God, and Mastadon, As A Nation Dies indeed has an inventive sound and tone all thier own. One listen will convince you As A Nation Dies is not one to miss! Website: http://www.myspace.com/asanationdiesrocks |
