Boldface Industry from Winnipeg, MB, Canada

Genre: A post-industrial freight train of heavy guitar rhythms, aggressive electronic beats, machine-gun precision drumming and intense vocals.

Official site: http://www.pangea.ca/~bfi

Year founded: 1989

Biography
In the past year and a half they've played a variety of venues across Manitoba, recently opening for bands including the Misfits, Jar, Noise Therapy, Neurosis, Skinlab, Guy Smiley,Morbid Angel and Napalm Death. Current radio airplay in Winnipeg includes 97.5 FM, 92.1 FM, and 101.5 FM.

The aggressive raw energy and professional tight sound BFI is known for it's no accident. The band originated as an independent project by keyboardist/vocalist Darren Johnston, a classically-trained pianist and recording enthusiast who created the band's techno-industrial backbone in 1989. Guitarists Shawn Dudar and Rick Bujak, who previously opened for shows like Jesus Lizard and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion with their former band, Meatrack, joined BFI in 1990 and 1996 respectively. Vocalist John Richter and drummer Rob Shallcross completed the band's intense sound shortly after.

Boldface Industry has developed their unique sound, in part, from influences like Fear Factory, Sepultura, and Skinny Puppy.

With the release of their first CD, Zone 1, BFI plans to pursue marketing and distribution opportunities, and gain exposure in the thriving industrial/techno scene in Europe with a possible tour overseas and/or in North America.
