From last.fm:
Valient Thorr is a band whose Venusian spacecraft landed in Greenville, North Carolina, USA, forming in 2001. Soon after they relocated to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA so they could fix their spaceship quicker. On July 1, 2003 Valient Thorr self-released their first album (only pressing 1000 copies which were sold at shows), Stranded on Earth, which had the same musical setup as present, but one of their guitarists (Djinn Thorr) used a keyboard, which helped to bring dance elements into their music.

Gypsyhawk
From Los Angeles, California
First Twin Cities show since since November 6, 2012 • First Entry show • Third Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar since October 9, 2011
From last.fm:
From the band's website: Combining the sound of Thin Lizzy, Hawkwind and Deep Purple with contemporaries like The Hellacopters, somehow just a few average dudes (with a penchant for riffs) have set out to return music to the people that really appreciate it. GYPSYHAWK is a band's band, a fan's band, and a rock and roll band when music needs it most. In a time when music is shoveled down listeners’ throats, GYPSYHAWK backs up the walk with rock, and maybe a little swagger -- but that’s all for good showmanship as much as the sake of the song.

Ramming Speed
From Boston, Massachusetts
Only Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar
From last.fm:
Playing their first show in January of ‘07, Ramming Speed have since loaded into well over 200 basements, living rooms and piss stained bars around the world. While the band’s first release, the “Full Speed Ahead” 7”, touched on issues such as pizza parties and fake tan smell-good girls, the band returned home from heavy touring with a different mind set. Ramming Speed experienced in six weeks what many bands never come across in a life time. Read more about Ramming Speed on Last.fm.
