Fallen Saint is a thrash metal band from the Vestfold og Telemark region of Norway, formed in 2020. They deliver aggressive, fast-paced thrash metal from southeastern Norway's coastal and mountainous terrain.
Harbor Beach, Michigan's Fallen Seraph bring death/thrash ferocity from one of the state's most remote reaches, formed in 2024. Playing extreme metal in a small Lake Huron shoreline community takes a certain commitment — their sound carries the isolated, driven energy that kind of geography tends to produce.
Fallen Temple is a melodic death/thrash metal band from the Mainz/Riedstadt area of Germany, formed in 2013. The band fuses the melodic intricacy of death metal with the raw speed of thrash from the Rhine-Main region.
Fallen Walls is a melodic thrash metal band from Leopoldshöhe, Germany, formed in 2010. The band combines the velocity of thrash metal with melodic sensibilities from the East Westphalian town.
Falling from Grace is a groove/melodic death/thrash metal band from Vantaa, Finland, formed in 2014. The band blends three strands of metal — groove, melodic death, and thrash — from the Helsinki metropolitan area.
Livermore, California's Falling to Pieces have been blending thrash aggression with groove metal's rhythmic muscle since 2007, part of the Bay Area's remarkably durable tradition of heavy guitar-driven bands. Nearly two decades in, they continue refining a formula that keeps the energy high and the riffs heavy.
Chico, California's Fallon bring death/thrash hostility from a small Northern California college town that has quietly produced more serious heavy music than its size might suggest, formed in 2023. Raw, fast, and riff-forward, their approach has the hungry urgency of a young band with something to prove.
Brooklyn's Fallout have been delivering hard-nosed heavy metal and hard rock since 2018, rooted in the borough's long tradition of working-class rock and roll. Their sound is unshowy and direct — the kind of heavy metal that has more in common with a bar stage than an arena, and is better for it.
New York's Fallout blends the ferocity of death metal with the kinetic energy of thrash, formed in 2018. The combination makes for a sound that's both technically aggressive and viscerally propulsive.
