"Yet again the M2TM has unearthed some astounding fresh talent, as it has done for over 20 years. The commitment of promoters, venues, fans and of course the bands, is a testament to the strength in depth of the underground, not only in the UK but also with our European and Scandinavian partners. A huge thank you to all those who work tirelessly to give these bands the platform they so richly deserve."
