Richmond, Virginia's Dethorned have been working the death/thrash underground since 2014, channeling the city's strong extreme metal tradition into riff-driven material that balances death metal's darkness with thrash's angular velocity. Richmond has always bred bands that play with purpose, and Dethorned fits that mold.
