Excruciator
Excruciator formed in Beaverton, Oregon in 2009 as an explicit reaction against metalcore trends in the Portland scene, drawing instead from the 1980s speed and heavy metal traditions of bands like Judas Priest and Motörhead. Their debut full-length Devouring (2011) was released on Heavy Artillery/Earache Records and recorded with a lineup that included guitarist/vocalist Chris Birkle, and the follow-up Fighting for Evil (2017) was produced by Toxic Holocaust's Joel Grind at Falcon Recording Studios in Portland. The band briefly went on hiatus between 2013 and 2015 before regrouping for additional releases.
