Artist: Arch Enemy

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Formed by ex-Carnage, Carcass, and Candlemass guitarist Michael Amott (concurrently of Spiritual Beggars) with his brother Christopher (Armageddon), Arch Enemy took a straight-ahead approach to death metal reminiscent of Entombed or late-period Carcass, blending catchy, classic-style metal riffs with crushing grooves for an intense yet...

Artist: Artillery

Genre: Rock/Pop
Denmark's Artillery were one of the many quality European thrash metal bands which never seemed to catch a break. Formed in 1982 in the Copenhagen suburb of Taastrup by brothers Michael (guitar) and Morten Stytzer (bass), Artillery's demos quickly became a hot item on the heavy metal underground tape trading circuit thanks to their frenzied,...

It's been more than five years since the world was last plagued with the Black Thrash Attack of Aura Noir. 'The Merciless' is their third full-length and the first for newly founded label Tyrant Syndicate. It bears all the trademarks of classic Aura Noir - whipping drums, razorsharp jet-black riffs and the frightening vocal delivery of not one... [+] Read More

Artist: Blood Tsunami

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Blood Tsunami formed in 2004 with Pete on guitar and vocals and Jay on drums. The music of Blood Tsunami was, and still is, nothing but vicious and aggressive old school thrash metal, heavily influenced by the Bay Area Scene and German Thrash Metal from the 80's. Soon Riff Randall joined on bass and Dor stepped in on the second guitar. Shortly... [+] Read More

Artist: Carnal Forge

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Carnal Forge, while aligned with Sweden's fertile death metal scene, actually harks back more to classic thrash and speed metal, particularly Slayer (as well as the melodic sensibilities of countrymen At the Gates). Formed in September 1997, the band featured vocalist Jonas Kjellgren (ex-Dellamorte and Centinex), guitarists Jari Kuusisto and... [+] Read More

Artist: Celtic Frost

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Celtic Frost's impact on the evolution of European heavy metal cannot be overstated. Along with power metal kings Helloween (and to a lesser degree, the sometimes cartoonish Mercyful Fate), Frost's enduring influence on Europe's heavy metal landscape is arguably comparable to Metallica's standing in America. Labeled by critics as "avant-garde"... [+] Read More

Artist: Coroner

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
From their modest beginnings as roadies for avant-garde Swiss metal legends Celtic Frost, the members of Coroner carved out one of the most unique careers in the European thrash metal scene. The trio was originally pegged as a conventional thrash band, but their jaw-dropping musicianship and increasingly complex, almost prog rock compositions... [+] Read More

Artist: Darkthrone

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
In 1986 Darkthrone rose up from the darkness, brought to life by Gylve Nagell (drummer), Ted Skjellum (guitars/vocals), Ivar Enger (guitars) and Dag Nilsen (bass).

Artist: Dekapitator

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Dekapitator began as a concept between Andy Maniac and Matt Hellfiend, two confirmed Thrashaholics, in late 1996. Their tastes seemed to run continually contrary to the direction of the band they played in together, Gore/Death Metal act Exhumed. The two became re-obsessed with the mid-1980's thrash movements in Germany, Canada, and of course... [+] Read More

Artist: Destroyer 666

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Formed in May 1994 by KK as an outlet for more thrashy riffs not suitable for Bestial Warlust. Never intended to be a "serious" full time band.

Artist: Destruction

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Together with their countrymen Kreator and Sodom, Germany's Destruction constituted the dominating triumvirate of Teutonic thrash metal during the 1980's. Although they ultimately failed to match these peers' in terms of commercial success and longevity, at least two of their albums still qualify among the crème de la crème of the decade's speed...

Artist: DevilDriver

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Since they formed in 2002, DevilDriver have enjoyed a slow, steady career build. Their self-titled 2003 debut was a crushing introduction to a new breed of extremity, spearheaded by the distinctive vocal ferocity of front man, Dez Fafara. The band's 2005 follow-up, Fury of Our Maker's Hand was more musically accomplished and experimental. But... [+] Read More

Story: Exclusive Interview with Sodom

May 10, 2006 Sodom's frontman Tom Angelripper talks about the new self-titled album, why he needs to come home from tour with some money and how "Angelripper" translates in German.

Artist: Exodus

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal
Once the kings of the Bay Area metal scene (widely accepted as the birthplace of thrash), Exodus were unceremoniously demoted from their post with the arrival of Los Angeles' Metallica in 1982. Sadly, with a little more luck, the group may have occupied the role of, say, Slayer as the purest purveyors of ultra-thrash, but while they continued to... [+] Read More

Artist: Flotsam & Jetsam

Genre: Rock/Pop
Flotsam and Jetsam initially showed a lot of promise within thrash metal circles and, though they've continued to record over the past 15 years, their talent and professionalism never quite translated into significant sales or mainstream recognition. Formed in Arizona by vocalist Eric A. K., guitarists Michael Gilbert and Edward Carlson, bassist... [+] Read More
