Houston crossover thrash project from the Texas underground.
Salt Lake City crossover thrash project from the Utah underground.
Atlanta crossover thrash and death metal outfit whose 2018 EP Terror Incognito delivers the kind of furious, politically charged extremity that thrives in the South's punk-metal intersection.
Corpus Christi thrash/crossover that released two albums on Metal Blade. Reformed in 2018.
Boston crossover thrash project from the Massachusetts underground.
Denton crossover thrash project from the Texas underground.
Newington, Connecticut crossover thrash act whose 2016 debut Get down into the dirt delivers exactly the muddy, aggressive punk-metal hybrid the title demands. New England crossover with zero pretension.
Seattle crossover thrash act whose 2014 demo Perfect Society delivers politically charged punk-metal from the city that once made protest music mainstream. The name says it all — against the grain, against the system.
