Cheap Dinosaurs is a Philadelphia based prog-rock project that combines poppy melodies with dark, psychedelic chip music. Harnessing the sound hardware of an original game boy, the group rides the fringe of the 8-bit music scene by mixing it with heavier and more organic soundscapes. Starting as the solo project of Dino Lionetti (ex-Chromelodeon) in 2007, the group has since grown to include other prominent community musicians, and has garnered a large and growing fan base out of Philly.

Slowly Crushed lives at the intersection of nostalgia and ruinous doom. Reminiscent melodies turned gloom filled riffs, classic themes into decelerated melancholy rhythms. This becloaked two piece, hailing from San Diego California, brings a unique approach to classic VGM songs. Taking memorable compositions from classic video games and running them through their own distinctive style of Funeral Flavored Sludge Metal, affectionately referred to as “NINTENDOOM”. Standing alone in their genre, they have curated a live performance that must be seen to understand. Even then it would be impossible to grasp the limitless depths when the droning void of Slowly Crushed stares back.
