Iress with Dreadnought and Faetooth

Dreadnought, from Denver, Colorado, crafts genre-defying progressive metal. Formed in 2012, the quartet blends doom, black metal, folk, jazz, and classical elements, featuring multi-instrumentalists on flute, saxophone, and mandolin, alongside dual female vocals. Acclaimed albums include "The Endless" (2022), and they released the single "The Becoming" (2025). They are recognized for their unique, contemplative songwriting and atmospheric soundscapes.

Faetooth, a three-piece "fairy doom" band from Los Angeles, blends doom, black metal, shoegaze, and sludge. Members Ari May, Jenna Garcia, and Rah Kanan explore personal and natural themes.
