Fun fact: I discovered this band in 2019 and I am kicking myself for not listening to this band sooner! I was strolling through some Instagram stories and multiple friends posted a screenshot of their album that came out in 2019, and I got to thinking, “who is this?” I started listening to their newest … Continue reading Band of the Week: Devourment

New Album Review: Testament – Titans of Creation
So much attention is paid to “The Big Four” (Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer). But this designation leaves out many important and influential bands from the two waves of thrash metal that swept through the country (Metal Church, Exodus, Overkill, and Death Angel, etc.).

Band of the Week: Slaughter to Prevail
Slaughter to Prevail (STP) has got to be one of the heaviest bands that I have ever listened to.

Band of the Week: Fit For A King
Fit For A King (FFAK) were one of the bands that I found randomly. I was going to go see Chelsea Grin in Greensboro one year and FFAK were on tour with them!
