Oscar is an asshole.

That's how his band mates describe him. The members of Limbo are sick of his attitude now. Seven years is a long time to hear about all the women he's forced into his bed, and how women only exist for the pleasure of men. Or even that anyone unemployed is so far beneath him they're basically his slave.

Limbo are tired. Oscar is digging a hole so deep the band might actually end up being buried alive. With no way to escape from the reputation they're developing as a result of him.

Limbo

Limbo is a five-piece British rock band signed to independent record label Powerlite. Formed by five school friends obsessed with punk, hard rock and metal, their early years were a disaster—playing tiny pub gigs for empty rooms, surviving on almost no money and relying on one member's father to drive them across the country in his battered minivan because they were too young to drive themselves.

After over seven years of relentless touring and refusing to quit, everything changed following a chaotic performance at Download Festival. A stage-diving accident that left their lead guitarist seriously injured unexpectedly thrust Limbo into the spotlight, turning an underground favourite into one of Britain's biggest modern rock acts.

Despite their success, Limbo has never polished its image. They still embrace loud guitars, reckless energy and the old-school " , drugs and rock 'n' roll" lifestyle far more than their label would like. Their concerts regularly sell out arenas, their fans are fiercely loyal, and their live performances are legendary.

Offstage, however, they're infamous. Venues dread hosting them, hotels expect property damage, promoters prepare for delays, and Powerlite is constantly weighing whether the band is worth the endless repair bills and PR disasters they leave behind. Their exhausted tour manager spends as much time preventing catastrophes as organising shows.

Years of fame, excess and constant touring have also begun to strain the friendships that built the band. Beneath the success, Limbo is held together by history, stubborn loyalty and the shared belief that, no matter how chaotic things become, the music always comes first.

Meet The Members

Mika Russo - Vocals

The magnetic frontman of Limbo. Equal parts charismatic rockstar and walking disaster, Mika lives for the spotlight, flirts with anything that breathes and somehow turns every bad decision into another body in his bedsheets. Loud, shameless and impossible to ignore.

Jake Burns - Drums

Built like a bodyguard but blessed with the personality of an oversized puppy. Jake's intimidating appearance fools everyone—he's quiet, awkward and hopelessly dependent on the people around him. Behind the drum kit, though, he's an absolute powerhouse.

Diego Carlsen - Lead Guitar

A perfectionist whose guitar work helped define Limbo's sound. Calm, reserved and emotionally ruined, Diego has become increasingly disillusioned with the band's self-destructive lifestyle, leaving him questioning how much longer he can stay earth side.

Oscar Samuel - Guitar

The wealthy golden boy who never quite fit the image of a rock band. Arrogant, blunt and convinced he's the smartest person in every room, Oscar has a habit of offending almost everyone he meets—fans, staff and even his own bandmates. When Oscar opens his mouth anyone in his vicinity can taste the sheer dread that goes with his specific brand of misogyny.

Fenrir Peters - Bass

Limbo's bassist and resident chaos magnet. Permanently late, permanently exhausted and fuelled by a cocktail of illegal substances, Fenrir somehow continues to stumble onto the stage every night (well - almost every night) and delivers unforgettable performances, no matter how much he worries everyone around him.
