Bio

Founded in the mid-80s, Exhorder dropped a cluster bomb with their 1990 maiden album ‘Slaughter in the Vatican’ (1990), a thrash masterpiece that made a huge impact on the local metal scene.

Their sophomore effort ‘The Law’ (1992) is regarded as an influential release in pioneering the groove-oriented thrash metal sound that would later be made successful by the likes of Pantera, Machine Head, Lamb of God and others. They split in 1994 before the all-important third disc could materialise. Exhorder was resurrected between 2008 and 2011, a reunion that ended with the passing of bassist Frankie Sparcello. A new full-length wasn’t released until 2019 with ‘Mourn the Southern Skies’. Good things come to those who wait because this is an all-out assault that ventilates all of the pent-up energy of more than two decades. The sludgy/doomy title track sets the stage for the groovy thrash attack that follows. Their latest slab ‘Defectum Omnium’ (2024) will have pit hounds cheerfully disregarding even basic levels of personal safety so buckle up!
