ARTISAN, local to the Los Angeles area, brings a wealth of
influences and a drive to make their own mark, providing music that is
thrash-worthy, melodic, and emotional.
By a push and a shove via the internet as well as old fashioned flyering, Los
Angeles based ARTISAN gain more attention every day in fans of all metal genes.
Be it speed, thrash, doom, death, or progressive metal, it always seems to
click. This heavy quartet provides a unique variety in vocal qualities from
clean melodic lines, to angry, expressive growls and screams.

Exodus, Strapping Young Lad, Entombed, Hate Eternal, Cathedral, Fates Warning,
Death, Nevermore, Flotsam and Jetsam, The Berzerker, Monstrosity, Hammerfall,
