No Comments | New Distortion Project website launched
Nice one! The brand spanking new Distortion Project Belfast website is up and running. What is the Distortion Project?
The Distortion Project is a Belfast, Northern Ireland based Heavy Metal gig promotions agency and record label. Formed in 2000 with a view to hosting fortnightly metal nights in one of Belfast’s newest night spots (Auntie Annies, on the Dublin Road, Belfast), we quickly established ourselves as gig promoters when we were asked to take over the running of “rocKD” (a shortening of “rock at Katy Dalys.” Katy Dalys is a pub/gig venue situated in the centre of Belfast).
That’s the low down on what they do, and using their new WordPress website (which means they can control all of the information) they can post about up and coming gigs, new CD releases and get a lot more exposure with greater ease, as before they had to constantly updated their hard coded website… yuck!

No Comments | Feeling very metal!
Well, I’ll hopefully be launching the new Distortion Project (heavy metal promotions and record label based in Belfast) website tomorrow night, fingers crossed!
And just while I’m in a metal mood, I got around to finally doing the Cork tour poster for Liverpool metal band Carcer City, who are hitting our shores in April.
Check out the Belfast and Cork posters below, created using Adobe Photoshop – and a delightful soundtrack of ‘ISIS – Wavering Radiant’.
