Formed in Sheffield in 2004, Bring Me The Horizon have had many highlights since the launch of their career. They have won three Kerrang Awards - one in 2007 for Best British Newcomer, the second in 2011 for Best Album for "There Is A Hell ... ", and, most recently, the 2012 award for Best British Video for "Alligator Blood". In 2011 they were officially the biggest band on MySpace UK; they have over 3.4 million fans on Facebook and over 50 million UK and European views on YouTube for their official videos. In late 2011, BMTH supported Machine Head in the UK and Europe, including a return to UK arenas. For the first six months of 2012, the band has been in the studio working on their next album, to be released through Sony in 2013.

As I Lay Dying, one of the US`s top metal attractions, has celebrated their latest worldwide release recently with 'Awakened". This is the band`s sixth studio release to date and is already receiving excellent reviews from metal communities all across the globe. Their appearance at RAMfest will make up a part of a 2013 world tour to promote "Awakened". The band has been described by many as a rough blend between thrash and melodic death, but more commonly described as a leader of the metalcore sound; which fuses extreme metal with elements of hard core punk.
