One of the lesser known later bands of the second wave of thrash, coming out of BC, Canada. Originally formed in 2003 as Skull Hammer, changed name in 2016. Sounding a lot like their contemporaries, like Havok in the relentless riffage and Warbringer with the blast beats. This one needs to be cranked more loudly to fully appreciate what they have to offer.

Edit: Upon blasting this out my speakers I have to say this is one hell of a great pure modern thrash album! Standouts are the first two tracks, and Sect of the Serpent!

    Yeah, the Warbinger comparisons are pretty spot on, not that I would say they’re particularly derivative, it’s just clear they’re reaching for a lot of the same ideas. I still have high hopes for Terrifier, they DO have what it takes, they just need to get that killer album with a few solid fresh ideas, and I feel that people will end up noticing. It’s not as if they do not deserve to be popular already, it’s just hard to catch people’s attention when you have so much competition, a lot of it is just luck.
