Long Island thrash metal act whose 2024 EP Disgraced Emanations From A Tranquil State delivers verbose, ambitious thrash from the New York suburbs. The lengthy title promises complexity, and the music follows through.
Levittown, Long Island thrash metal project with four releases since 2016. Albums like Mouse and Mr Angel bring an oddball sensibility to the genre, their suburban Long Island origins fueling a distinctly off-kilter approach to thrash.
Fishkill, New York power metal project whose name evokes the desert planet from Frank Herbert's Dune. Science fiction grandeur from the Hudson Valley.
