Herakleion
Named after the ancient Egyptian city discovered underwater in 2000, Herakleion is a death-thrash trio from New Orleans formed in 2021. Guitarist/vocalist Apollo Xydias, drummer Speed Wilson, and bassist Christian Woerner channel the city's heavy music legacy through a prism of thrash and death metal aggression. Their debut EP 'Curse of Eternity' and follow-up 'Necroverse' capture the raw intensity of a band steeped in New Orleans' tradition of punishing, swamp-bred heaviness.
