New York's Demonic Altar arrived in 2024 wielding the classic black/thrash arsenal — bestial riffing, rabid tempos, and a vicious contempt for polish. In the tradition of the genre's most stripped-down practitioners, they favor speed, spite, and malice over technical elaboration.

Whittier, California's Demonslaught have been storming through the black/thrash underground since 2021 with a reckless, fire-and-chainsaw approach that honors the Angeleno tradition of high-speed malevolence. Fast, filthy, and furiously lo-fi, they channel the spirit of the early blackthrash pioneers with contemporary ferocity.
