Being as an Ocean:
Emotional Hardcore For Those Who Want To Feel. San Diego, CA.
A melodic hardcore outfit from Alpine, California, Being as an Ocean combine drifting atmospheres with aggressive outbursts. After emerging in 2011, the band flirted with mainstream success in 2014 with the release of their Billboard-charting sophomore effort, How We Both Wondrously Perish. They continued to refine their visceral post-rock and emotional hardcore sound on subsequent releases, including 2015's Being as an Ocean, 2017's Waiting for Morning to Come, and 2019's Proxy: An A.N.I.M.O. Story. Following a expanded reissue of their 2012 debut, Dear G-D, they delivered their sixth full-length, 2024's Death Can Wait.
Members of Being As An Ocean include, or have included, Tyler Ross, Joel Quartuccio, Michael McGough, and Connor Denis.

Taking influence from bands like , , and , Boston metalcore outfit Vanna were barely together a year before signing with in fall 2005. Comprising Joe Bragel (vocals), Nick Lambert (guitar/vocals), Evan Pharmakis (guitar/vocals), Brandon Davis (drums), and Shawn Marquis (bass), their music often alternated between melodic singing and visceral growling. The band parted ways with Bragel for personal reasons in February 2006, and a new vocalist, Chris Preece, eventually replaced him. Vanna's debut EP, The Search Party Never Came, appeared in June 2006. Vanna spent the summer touring nationwide, including various dates with labelmates , before retiring to a Seattle studio with producer Matt Bayles (, ) that fall. The resulting full-length, Curses, surfaced in April 2007 and was supported with spring shows alongside . The group's sophomore outing, A New Hope, also on , arrived in 2009, followed in 2011 by And They Came Baring Bones and The Few and the Far Between, both of which were issued via Sacramento-based . The Will Putney-produced Void, the band's fifth long-player, was released in 2014 through . An EP of covers called ALT dropped in 2015, followed by a new studio album, All Hell, in 2016. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi

lowheaven: Formed in the spring of 2020, beneath the dark clouds of the COVID-19 pandemic and stay-at-home orders, lowheaven’s sound oscillates somewhere between post-hardcore, screamo, blackened noise, and metal. Vocalist and guitarist Dan Thomson, formerly of Canadian post-hardcore band Sparrows, explains candidly, “We’re not a happy listen, lowheaven is something that has got a lot of weight.” Their debut album, Ritual Decay, explores the reality of complete social isolation and the acceptance of what it means to lose faith in life and yourself.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/149764/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View&nbsp;Tickets &amp; More&nbsp;Info</a>

Chicago Business Owners Fight Back Against Merchant Cash Advance Debt as Courts Scrutinize "Disguised Loans"
Cook County businesses squeezed by daily merchant cash advance withdrawals are increasingly challenging whether those contracts are loans in disguise &mdash; and whether they belong in an Illinois court at all.
CHICAGO &mdash; Small business owners across Chicago and Cook County are confronting a wave of merchant cash advance (MCA) collections, and a growing number are pushing back on the core premise of the contracts themselves.
The central question is characterization. A merchant cash advance is marketed as a purchase of future receivables, not a loan &mdash; a distinction that keeps it outside traditional usury limits. But when the daily payments never adjust to a business's actual revenue, when the funder retains recourse regardless of how the business performs, and when the funder bears no real risk, courts have grounds to treat the agreement as a loan in substance. That recharacterization is the pivot point of modern MCA defense, and it turns on how the deal actually worked rather than the label on the paperwork.
For Chicago's dense base of restaurants, logistics operators, contractors, and retail businesses, the pressure often escalates fast. What starts as a stacked set of advances taken during a cash crunch can spiral when fixed daily ACH withdrawals continue even as revenue falls &mdash; the classic cash-flow trap that pushes viable businesses toward default.
There is also a venue surprise many Chicago owners never see coming. Numerous MCA agreements contain forum-selection clauses routing disputes to New York courts. An Illinois business can find itself defending a lawsuit in a New York Supreme Court, and a resulting judgment can reach Illinois assets only if it was properly domesticated under Illinois procedure &mdash; a step an experienced attorney can scrutinize.
The enforcement mechanics are what make timing critical. Once a funder secures a judgment, it can freeze operating accounts and drain the capital a business needs to make payroll. Default judgments obtained through defective service or improper procedure can sometimes be vacated, but the window is narrow and shrinks once enforcement begins.
The consistent theme across these cases: the strongest position is the earliest one, before a judgment is entered and accounts are restrained.
Chicago business owners facing MCA collections, stacked advances, or a lawsuit filed out of state can review their options and connect with an experienced attorney through CredibleLaw's Chicago network at <a href="https://crediblelaw.com/chicago-mca-defense/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank"></a><a href="https://crediblelaw.com/chicago-mca-defense-attorney/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">crediblelaw.com/chicago-mca-defense-attorney/</a>.
