please update this band

New York's The Dying Light have been fusing blackened thrash and death metal since 2005, building on the state's long extreme metal tradition with a sound that's as riff-driven as it is atmospherically vicious. Two decades of activity has given them time to refine the precise balance of aggression and darkness that defines blackened thrash at its best — the speed and spite of thrash locked inside death metal's sonic murk. They are one of New York's more enduring underground extreme metal acts.

Out of Ellenville in New York's Hudson Valley, The Gods Themselves formed in 2014 as a three-way collision of death, black, and thrash metal — a combination they wear with an aggressive, unpolished intensity rather than the clinical precision that genre-blending can sometimes produce. The name, borrowed from the Asimov novel, hints at ambitions beyond the regional underground they emerged from. Their sound pulls in multiple directions at once without ever feeling like a compromise between them.

Out of Queens since 2011, The Last Alliance fuse the anthemic sweep of power metal with the aggressive propulsion of thrash, a combination that puts them in a lineage stretching from early Blind Guardian to latter-day Iced Earth. The New York City context gives their sound an urban edge that keeps the grandeur from tipping into pure fantasy escapism.

New York crossover veterans This Is Hell have been tearing through the divide between hardcore and thrash since 2004, delivering fast, punishing sets that owe as much to the NYHC tradition as to Bay Area thrash.
