Hollow Stage is a heavy metal band that was based in San Diego, CA. Working out of Kansas City, Missouri, in 2024. The band consists of a gritty and modern sound, inspired by all walks of metal. They are still active in the studio and have made appearances at venues like The Glasshouse, SOMA San Diego, Brick x Brick, and Chain Reaction, but currently have no plans to play in a live setting.

Formed in late 1998, Highroad No. 28 quickly established itself as a powerhouse in the Australian heavy rock scene. Their first two EPs, Obscure Madness (1999) and Dynamic Introspection (2002), showcased a band unafraid to explore the depths of anguish and despair—yet always infused with a relentless “never-give-in” attitude. From 2003 to 2005, the band delivered a series of live performances, culminating in the release of their debut album, Unsteady and Steady State, on December 8, 2005.
